Can anyone help with a QQ re grain to grain transfers?

The standard way seems to be to shake the donor jar to loosen the contents, take the lids off the donor and recipient, then pour a bit of colonised grain into the recipient before replacing both lids.

Is there any reason why I shouldn't open the donor jar on its side, and use a sterilised (heated to glowing) long handled tea spoon to extract a small amount of colonised grain, then tip a spoonful each into multiple recipients?  (

Thanks stockw.  I checked out a thread on here about it, but all the responses seemed to be about LI and LC, or flaming the OP for cooling his spoon in ISO after flaming it, rather than whether it was a viable method.

I'll try it once I have a suitable donor.  If it all goes horribly wrong, look out for a post on the Confessions thread

What is interesting here is that the RULES posted and created by RR speak against nominating in a public way if I remember correctly.

The good ‘ol boys club bullshit needs to stop here, especially if you’re not a moderator.

It says “please”, not that it’s against the rules.  I don’t think we see these types of posts often and when we do they are typically for active users who have proven themselves to be excellent cultivators who are helpful and consistently provide solid advice and constructive criticism.  Two users who aren’t mods and have absolutely no authority over who receives the tag, a good ol boys club, does not make.  Sounds like sour grapes.
