"short chained sugars" You are already over my head

I have been using Karo light corn syrup @ 3% in my lc's. I don't use lc's so much anymore as it makes me lazy with the agar work, but it sure gives a crystal clear lc.

---

So if I feed my yeast with short chained sugars and then try to make them eat long chained sugars they give me the same look as my five year old when I tell him to eat something healthy right after having a chocolate bar

I can find karo, but man was that expensive where I'm at

---

Good analogy

Yes, karo is some high value stuff here. I bought more Karo than I need, I can send you some if you want to try it!

Does all mycelium like vanilla flavor?

Only when pumpkin spice is out of season.

This stuff works...
About a tsp per 500ml of water

So 1ml/dl, got it. Does all mycelium like vanilla flavor

Shiiiid i guess so

That would actually be super neat, I would have to have it shipped anyway and I sure as hell don't need 1L

looks crystal clear i try .3% right know its pressure cooked right know will post soon a pictrue how it looks. but is there no disadvantage because of the low nute level in the water?

---

Disadvantage, hmmm not in my opinion. Will there be less mycelium, also yes.

---

i make a lare amount of lc in a quart jar and pressure cooked and after i filter the lc ro water but i use 1,5% LME so i will do it with enogh food know i pressure cooked the whole ja again with the other smaller jars so lets see how it looks then its litte bit cloudy no problem so its ok as long i can suck up the stuff in my syringe its ok...

You can leave the cap making a print for 24 hours. Even after that, you can take a sample from inside the cap and clone it. And yeah, after that, you just dehydrate it as usual.

As for the stem, you can put it in a Tupperware, wrapped in a paper towel, and keep it in the fridge. I had no issues cloning after 2–3 days. I haven't tried keeping it any longer than that, so I couldn't really say.

Sweet, I just wanted to check on the shelf life between harvest and dehydration. Wanted to make sure it wouldnt spoil by the time I could get it printed and cloned, then dehydrated. Obviously I want to eat it still after I play mad scientist.

is my grain fucked? it's all clumpy in some spots and like, gooey and wet kind of. I cooked it then left it on the countertop for a few hours. I stirred it up with my hands. And then I PC'd it for 2 hours after venting  When it was done I just let them cool down then moved them back into the box that the jars themselves came from. This was all three days ago now.

its not green irl that's a reflection

Sorry to say this but when I zoom in close to the wet spots I can see biofilm around thr grains. Looks very bacterial. Sorry to bear bad news.

Man, see, that's what I thought! Can u circle the biofilm? Also, what do you think went wrong? I PC'd them, the bugs should have been killed, right? Also, can I just
...... PC them again...?

---

If you zoom in where I circled you can see the ring of moisture around the grains isnt clear, its actually a milky or creamy colour. That is the biofilm.

While I hate oats for the bioload they have, thr PC cycle might be an issue if you are not venting the PC long enough or not running the grain long enough. I personally would start fresh grain and switch from oats to rye or wheat. Something more forgiving.
