Equally easy to hover over those buttons above the post window... a little thing pops up telling you what it is!!! Just like every webpage in every browser since the 90s!!!

I bet there's an app for that, but I weep for anyone that has to look at this site on mobile. It is truly awful.

But realistically, when I first started posting here there were only a couple of buttons I wasn't sure about after looking at the icons or just clicking them to see what they did.

That's how you learn how IT, by just clicking on stuff to see what it does. Try it, nothing here will launch a missile or change your grandma's prescription if you click it.

It's not that bad on mobile. :smile:

You can long-press an icon (at least on my browser on Android). It'll pop up with the alt text, and if it's also a link, it'll show the (beginning of) the link and a bunch of options for what to do with the link.

You might have to zoom in to click the one you want if it's in a row of them, though.

I mostly browse this site on mobile and it works pretty well. It's a little clunky trying to post photos but then again most of the photos that I want to post are on my mobile and getting them up to my laptop is a pain in the ass as well. Of course I can upload them to my profile but that's just one extra step.

Can't see from that picture. Cobweb is not that common I don't think, maybe another mold or contam. Better pic would help.






Here is some better pics, sorry about that.

Honestly the main thing I'm worried about it the the other jar I inoculated with the sauce I made... it was my first attempt at LI.

I've got 3 other jars I nocc'd up at the same time. Two with agar and one with the same LI



Would you s2b the other green lidded one or toss it or let it chill and watch?

Thanks for the advice.

Question 1:
Hi, I am using a Wallmart Stainless Steel Canner, it has a glass lid to be heavy and it has a steamer rack to hold the jars above the water, doing pf-tek with 4oz jars, BRF/Verm/Water substrate. Doing steam-sterilization.

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-Stainless-Steel-21-5-Qt-Multi-Use-Water-Bath-Canner-Tempered-Glass-Lid-Silver/698345022

I think it's this ^ one. Does the tiny hole in the lid, and some steam escaping from the sides (even though the lid is heavy) cause the temperature to be too cool to sterilize effectively? This thing is designed as a canner/steam sterilizer so I think it should work, what does the home team here think? Thanks =)

Related PF-tek Steam Sterilization question, what general temperature should the stove be when doing the 90-120minute steaming? Medium-low? "Simmer" is what the guide says but I am not sure quite how little or much the pot should be boiling. About medium/medium-low temperature generally?


Question 2:
I have a digital pressure cooker, with a pressure valve that sets to 15PSI.

I am using 4oz BRF PF-tek jars, what temp and time should I do to achieve proper sterilization without cooking the rice and dehydrating the water inside the jars? Most guides are for 8oz jars so 4ozjars I want to ensure won't dry out with the guideline times for sterilization. Please advise =) thanks.

A steam 'sterilizer' ought to be good enough for PF tek

Just do what the manual for the steamer says.  A small hole is necessary, else the pressure would build enough to lift the lid, and it would be slamming.  Simmer means a light boil.  You should probably get a steady little whistle through the hole.

If you have a pressure cooker that can do 15psi, might as well use it!  Since a PC sterilizes with steam, it's not likely to dehydrate anything really.

OTOH PF tek is so well established and demonstrably effective, you can't do much better than to just follow those instructions to a T.  Your steamer will achieve the closest approximation, IMO.
