Heavy condensation leading to pooling in cold storage.
    #27115144 - 12/29/20 10:36 PM (3 years, 30 days ago)

Im experiencing some really heavy condensation on my plates in cold storage.

Its dripping off the lid and creating some pools of water in my cultures.

Is this ok? or will it lead to garbage plates eventually?

Is it better to keep cultures unrefridgerated until i can get a better fridge?
Or is it ok to just leave it ?

Even when I use a thermo lunch bag i still get pooling / condensation despite the temps inside the bag remaining quite consistant. ( i measure the temps inside the lunch bag)

I dont want to put any more cultures in the fridge for fear or this causing trouble down the line when  i may need my stored cultures.

Any feed back is much appreciated.

Store them upside down in fridge, keep them upside down , put in SAB upside down. Drain right before use., Not really an issue, if kept upside down.... Also put plates in Ziploc, then put in fridge upside down. No worries.

Ziploc keeps them drying out as fast, as well protects them should there be a spill  or other accidents from other stuff in the fridge.

i store all my cultures in my fridge thats dedicated to myco only which helps the drastic temp swings that cause condensation from opening and closing like that. but what i also do since i do olen n close it often is i wrap everything in a cpl layers of papertowel then aluminum foil over it then i place them inside an insulated cooler/lunchbox or bag. this removes 100% of my condensation mean i have absolutely zero. of coarse a tiny big will form when u take it out but that not avoidable. ive been storin like this for a cpl years now

Oh really? thanks i think ill try this.

Will it dry up existing condensation ? Or you have to dump the water out first?

well if u got that much water there really aint nuttn u  can do but try dumpin it and see what happens. also get urself some microwaveable warmers(bean bag things) get them warm and place on the top of the plates it will draw the condensation right outta it. works every single time
