Agar woe
    #27800242 - 05/31/22 12:04 PM (2 years, 7 months ago)

Hi, I have tried Bods agar tek a couple of times and despite all the recommendations on cooling slowly etc. I would get condensation so I thought I’d try Pastywhyte’s tek.

As you can see from the photo I am having the same problem. I let these cups cool down overnight in the PC. In case you were wondering the gas exchange membrane is on the side of the cup.

I’m using telephone agar and grain soak water with some red dye. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Is this the entire stack or just the bottom ones (if more than one stack)?

Also, don't use red colouring. Most red dyes will greatly inhibit mycelial life.

Check out Josex's tips for no pour, there's a whole section on cooling and storage

Edit: FFS, I meant to link the thread. My bad

Thanks for this link. The tek I used said to leave them in the pc overnight to cool slowly. This tek says the exact opposite, aka get them out of the pc asap. I’ll give this a try since I know the other way definitely doesn’t work for me!

Indeed and I'm also in the let cool overnight camp. However everyone's home and equipment is slightly different, all I was getting at is try it just like you said
