Grain jar filters?
    #27793372 - 05/26/22 07:29 AM (2 years, 7 months ago)

I have made three 8th inch holes in the lids of the 500 ml (I forget the unit) wide mouth jars a little less than an inch apart in a triangle around the middle. It's been a couple days, and I realized there is nothing covering the holes. This is bad right? They are grain jars with sterilized oats I boiled for 10 minutes and PCd for 60 minutes at 15 psi.

I did a lot of searching but am having trouble finding new ideas on this: is micropore tape still what people use? I've seen varying thoughts. Probably still varying ideas out there, but I've gotta work with the lids I've got, so what is best for a lid with a few holes?

The mycelium is CONSUMING the oats please help me protect them from the mold :sad:

imo synthetic filter disks are the best.

They come in different sizes, can be pressure
cooked hundreds of times for reuse.

Yeah if you didn't cover those holes those jars are already 100% fucked.

Some people use micropore still. SFDs are probably the best option (synthetic filter disks), you can get small SFD stickers too.

I've recently just switched over to using polyfill to try that out because I had tons of it laying around.

Aw darn. It's okay there's more agar where that came from but I used my best looking ones oh well. Can you PC with the polyfill in? I do have that.

Edit: shroomery search says yes on the polyfill in the pc, so I will give it a try.

Some foil over the tops of the jars will help keep the polyfill from getting wet in the PC.
