Super cool, stipe. Very nice writeup. You won't even need to buy needles! I'm going to try out a few more container types, but if I ended up finding a path here I'll probably look to more efficient ways of managing LC inoculations, like luer connections. Your bioreactor in particular looks dope.

For all you European growers or aspiring growers who still think that getting a pc like a Presto 23qt or an AA is difficult or even impossible, I'm writing this to convince you that it isn't and that it's a very economical option (in my case with the presto 23QT 01781).




You can get a rebranded 22qt barton for about 70-80 bucks in europe, mind you with the regulations they'll sell the shit with a 11psi weight, but they will take modding like champs and they seem to be just as durable if you maintain them with care

Those regulations are so stupid they don't change the manufacturing for the PCs so they're still made to withstand 20 PSI+ in theory, it's really just the weight that's different from country to country (same reference goes from 60 kpa to 100 kpa (something like 9 psi to 15 psi)), so yeah

Just have to triple check on the actual reference/SKU to know where to get replacement parts and know you're not ordering a cheap ass unknown chinoid crafted in some dude's basement, but other than that I really have no complaints

Importing a presto is still the most careful approach, although the day I import a PC will be the day I get a proper All American

Try googling this around (with and without the SKU:) for instance, if you're looking for something cheap that also works

SKU: HG-WWHYYR-4275

Oh yeah PS: 11 psi at altitude 0 will actually sterilize grain just fine if you run it for 1:30 to 2 hours (I do 130 and let it sit until it cools down so consider that closer to 2-230)

Thanks for the information.
However, I think that my presto alone will be more than enough for my needs. I've also been thinking about importing an AA, I've been looking at different sellers or merchant sites for several years but honestly I couldn't invest more than 600€ in a 921/925 (Because that's the prices on ebay).

I know that some people like Josex have done it in the past and it was a more economically viable option (https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23863947#23863947) but today it's just not worth it in my opinion. There's also Stipe who spent 2k$ on an AA75X to Canada using a three party shipper but I probably won't have to do that for a long time as I'm just starting out in this hobby and I'm not as passionate as he is lol

AA is worth it if you ever plan on running bags. It’ll last for your kids kids as well — solid.

Yeah I'm on the same boat tbh. I want an AA only because I know I won't have to fuck around replacing gaskets etc, and will still have it at the end of my life. It's a lifetime investment and to know I don't have to fuck around or worry about anything going wrong

I just like posting about that option for people who have less money and/or are hesitating to get a PC honestly, more than directing it at you directly. You can get shit done just fine with a cheaper one, as long as you take your altitude into the whole pressure equation (I wouldn't go lower than 115°C as the final temperature in the PC)
And yes, the difference is MASSIVE between even a cheap ass 10 psi pressure cooker and a regular pot. Even for PF tek, even for agar

I second that tool! I have one that cuts through 2 1/2” pvc like butter!

And here’s what I’ve been up to:

“Table top” fruiting chamber but running 4 of them off one humidifier.




Recently fruited my zapotecorum in one of these bad boys.





And +1 to wavy getting around the use of grain. Fuck grain.

Pretty sure that’s everything I used 🧐 😂

Some things I bought in person of course, like the tote, and some the bigger fittings that I used on the humidifier. I used E6000 to glue a short piece of 1” pvc to the humidifier output, and then attached a 2” to 1” reducer bushing and 2” cap on top of that, where I have the 4 1/2” barb fittings coming out for hopefully even humidification.



Have yet to see if the one humidifier will be powerful enough for all 4 but so far so good I’m thinking!

Oh and I used some really cheap ac filter material to cover the fan, just to keep dust and pet hair from getting the fan all nasty!

Awesome, thanks. I've veen considering adding some fittings to my SAB for dual use as a fruiting chamber. Those should work perfectly.

For those who aren't familiar with my SAB, a pic for reference.
