My APER culture really likes fruiting on plates.

Does fantastic in tubs too.

Good thing plates are cheap and time is free. I probably waste more plates than I should just out of curiosity.

What do you use to flame your blade?

Push button or you just leave it on?


Right now I use a cheap little alcohol bunson. Kind of a pain in the ass but it makes me slow down and not get too comfortable with fast hasty movements. I've been using an alcohol burner for a lot of years and it works great but eventually I'll probably switch to a good torch.

I'm strongly considering a bactizapper. I don't know which to get.

When doing long lab sessions (3+ hours) lighting and turning off the torch between every transfer becomes annoying. Plus the iso fumes and butane burning in a small room isn't the best.

Pilot free oven igniters are around $15 USD. Nice hot heating element coil...

I put ethanol in my bunson and the smell is very tolerable.

I remember you posting about contams on plates while using your hood.

This is how I've made every transfer, no satellites or mold. Keep in mind that every surface, especially the rack, has been thoroughly sanitized with ISO.



Bactizappers are dope af. I need to set my big hood up again : (

The field of view is restricted so that my tattoos aren't visible. It's t-shirt season.

You have to light the torch each time?


The culinary torches are perfect, just pull the trigger.

fucking stuff-lust will be the death of my finances. i just locked down the outflow for a while.
i know you said that a FH doesn't prevent contams, but what i do see is that sterile procedure becomes far less restricted.

i sell some big paintings it'll be time to build an FH, get an AA, and a bactizapper. you have a source for the latter; i got cranky and don't want to give Stamets my $ for personal reasons.

A hood is the one thing in this hobby that justifies spending a big chunk of cash.


I wish there was somewhere people could go try one. I literally NEVER would’ve spent the money on one. Zero chance.


Then once the tribe and shroomery bestowed one upon me I got to experience how awesome they are.

I would probably just stop culting if I couldn't use a hood, it's just too convenient and awesome.

@spacebaby

I got my zapper from ebay.

I can see the benefits very clearly. I am using good sterile technique, and still getting fucked by bugs.

Umm, is some shameless self-promotion for my art okay to post? Art supplies that I use make FHs and AAs look dirt cheap. Seriously. If not, please be nice about the info :whiteflag: : I love this community and don't want to step out of bounds.

my first dish to pin from the melmaks. little chunky one in there too- gonna wait and throw a few pins on agar and then chuck the whole thing to two master jars and do 4 tubs to test. note that the thinner/weaker looking myc fruited in dishes before all the nicer looking plates

impressive, I'll be ready for that when production time is precious. Until then i'll stick with my irodo microjet torch. Need to disable the child lock somehow.
