Stamets's Mushroom Cultivator grain tek issue
    #27059797 - 11/27/20 08:47 AM (3 years, 2 months ago)

I followed the grain tek in The Mushroom Cultivator (you can find it online for free easily) and it failed for me. The tek is super easy. Use a cup of grain (Stamets recommends rye) and 2/3-3/4 cup of water in a quart jar and then pressure cook. I'm sure its sterile, but there is visible water at the bottom half inch of my quart jar. The rye grain only fills up the jar 1/2-3/5 of the way, so I had a hard time reaching the grain with my spore syringe. I'm thinking I did something wrong because Stamets is supposedly very reputable, but most rye teks have a prep stage beforehand and larger quantities. I'm trying to figure out what the hell happened.

easy prep boil rye for 10 minutes turn off heat, and take off burner let sit 5-10 minutes. Then put into strainer and dry until it is ready. some ppl do a soak I don't.

So much of what you’ve described sounds wrong and concerning. Your spore syringe couldn’t reach the grain? I cannot imagine any process in which that description might fit that sounds like good practice.
