So, as I posted previously, my pc exploded and I am looking for a no pc agar tek to sterilize my agar liquid.
But to sterilize my plastic cup, should i just clean it with isopropyl 70% and peroxide?
I saw it in mindful's agar tek
Can I also sterilize my plastic containers like this to put my grains in it?

U can do Tyndallization but it requires lots of fuel. I think u might be best off with cakes until u get a PC.

Please explain how your PC exploded. It's not easy to make that happen and I understand you having fear of it now, but really it isn't hard to use a PC safely
Got pics of the PC or other damage it caused?

Pressure valve? Emergency release valve? Any idea why?

I just watched a cool video montage of pressure cookers exploding on people. Some fascinatingly scary shit.

My thoughts as well - there should be at least 1 safety that would fail before the valve could. Who was the maker of the PC?

I think what Nimpo was trying to point out is that there is a difference between sanitization and sterilization. Iso and peroxide are methods of sanitization, not sterilization. That being said, I mix agar recipe in glass bottle, microwave a bit and shake to get it all dissolved and steam sterilize like you would do a pf tek jar. 45 minutes seems to be the sweet spot for my setup and I've never had a single issue. This is my "pour" solution, BUT I did this exact same thing no-pour with 4oz jars when I first started with agar, and honestly just did some a few nights ago that way because I ran out of petri dishes and had emergency transfers to make! I know it's not ideal, but I've never used a PC for pour or no pour agar... You can do it!!

Just read your other thread about it. You still haven't given enough info for us to know what happened Using a PC safely isn't hard to figure out

One of the easiest things some people overlook is to maintain their pressure cookers, I guess.
Op: Never run a PC dry. Always check all the parts before every pressure cook cycle and maintain them afterwards, including keeping the seal from dry rotting.
Any new age pressure cooker you can get the parts for from the manufacturer or online. If you suspect there is an issue don't run it.
