Thanks for the reply. I used the PF tek method. Did not use a glove box. I inoculated with BR + verm + water. Used a Instant Pot to pressure cook. I know, not the most sterile environment but 3 of the other jars are contam free (fingers crossed). Going to build a glove box tomorrow.

Hello,
It's recommended to build a SAB (still air box), not a glove box. There are many great teks, just search for SAB tek.
Cheers, good luck and have fun!

PF tek is designed so you can sterilize without a PC if you don't have one. The Instant Pot would be a few steps up from that, so it's not too bad. Just make sure to increase the sterilizing time accordingly if it's not at 15 psi (which the majority of guides here are written for)

I know I'm a fool, but that's why I keep trying to learn.
