glad to see someone at least going thru the motions of a fair trial.
but 1 cake is a pretty small test.
if it dies, etc. it would be premature to judge the tek a failure.
i've now dunked over a hundred cakes,
almost half in water, the rest in skim milk.
and i know it works beyond any shadow of a doubt.
i wish you success in your experiment,
and look forward to hearing your results in a few days.

i have to say the dunk tek has worked well for me.
i don't agree with how hippie and his 'cohorts' conduct themselves but i have to admit that the tek seems viable. i think 4 dried grams per cake, and possibly more, is pretty nice for not ever having to construct a terrarium or deal with perlite or humidity gauges.
i can say that i have tried it all, everything, from casing cakes to cakes to straw, to jafftek, to shroomgod's tek, to using a humidifier, to using perlite, to using rye, to using birdseed, to building a glovebox, to using agar, to lining my work area with plastic, to running a HEPA 24/7, and NOTHING has come close to bringing success except making PF cakes.

Wow, that is a beautiful cake, i've never actually had mushrooms grow off the top of my cakes. Always from the bottom where the perlite is.

When I first birth them, I put a wet layer of verm on top. It seems to work pretty well.

lol
kinda hard to do without being an arogant ass, isn't it ?
i'm afraid that i really have no idea why you are failing.
too many possible factors unknown to hazard a guess.
but there are dozens of success stories, from Relic of ADM to Ralphster here, etc. people are even dunking cased grain with success, there's some great pics on our site of this.
my suggestion would be to try it on a fresh cake thats just beginning to pin, dunk it 12 hours in water then watch.
what strain are you using anyway ?

ive had great success with just doing a simple double ended casing..it does the same thing..rehydrates your cake..you can mist the vermiculite after each flush and it gives the cake plenty of water to begin a new one..here is a fuzzy picture of some treasure coast.

28.4 dry grams off of 4 cakes? In how many flushes? That seems a bit much.. I'm not accusing you of lying, but that's phenomenal; Do you have any pictures?
