So I got to thinking about the best way I can pasteurize substrates without having to buy anything. Then it hit me, I have this bad boy available to me at work! My boss is a dead-head, and constantly asks me if I have anything, so tomorrow at work I'll ask if I can use their Rational iCombi Pro combi-oven to run a test batch. We use it to cook creme brulees, cheesecakes, steamed green beans, and a few other things. I've used it this garden season to steam blanch green beans from my garden so I could freeze them. I plan on running the test batch on the 100% steam mode, at 160F, for 4 hours overnight. If the boss will let me that is...

I got permission from the big boss and the kitchen boss, so it's on like Donkey Kong!

@fahtster: Trying to go back through these threads and see your misting schedule for these pan ziploc bags, but it seems you just set and forget? Sometimes water after first flush?

I always add water after a flush. I’ll just flood the clean surface and let that soak in and rinse and repeat until it doesn’t seem like it’s absorbing anymore.

I have set and forget for most of the time I’ve been growing the bags but recently noticed when it rained for a few days straight that all my trays perked up and realized I haven’t been paying attention to ambient room rh all summer when it’s been hot and dry for months and probably why I haven’t had the best summer for ziplocks.  So, I went ahead and bought a small ultrasonic and run it for an hour and then an hour off and that keeps the rh between 60-70% and I’ve seen a marked improvement in all my trays both tub and ziplocks
