ohm's spawnbag tek - pictorial

since we lack a proper 'from beginning to end' spawnbag tek, here we go ohm style:
matrials needed, for 3 medium bags: 3000grams rye 2000grams millet 3 spawnbags autoklaveable tape colonised spawn
first of all, this is the grain used, rye (left) and millet (right):
in two bowls, the grains are submerged in pasteurisation broth for ~18-20hrs: (again rye to the left and millet to the right)
this serves two purposes, first it gets some endospores to germinate and second it will already start to hydrate our grains.
after the soaking, the grains are being simmered in the same pasteurisation broth they've been soaking in. the rye goes ~30 mins, till kernels start popping, the millet is brought to a boil and let stand for an hour or two.
after properly rinsind and draining the grains, they are mixed throughoutly:
heres a closeup of the best spawnmix out there:
now, three bags are being filled with the grainmix. i like to fold back the top of the bags to allow easier filling:
now the bags are being folded over like in the pic, paying attention to avoid knitting and foling them over straight:
now autoklaveable, but jet air penetrable tape is applied over the edges:
it is very important to have properly folded them, otherwise you wont be able to secure it properly.
now the taped top is folded inwards like in the pic:
rolled up and secured on the bag itself with some additional tape:
now, because it was bedtime for lil ohm already, i slammed them into the fridge overnight and claved them the next day. i wonder what my roomies may have thought when they were looking for food and found spawnbags in the fride:
allright claving time, i like to go ~2hrs @ 15-17psi.
after claving and letting cool, 100grams of colonised millet are used to spawn the content of the bag.
heres a pic of the spawn used:
as u may guess, its a burma clone
anyway, after spawning it, i like to twist the top and fold it over once and secure it using some more tape.
first mixing takes plaec to distro spawn among uncolonised grains. after ~4 days second and final mixing takes place, at this point the spawn will already have infected couple kernels if you use a agressive spawn like me.
after about 5-7 more days the bag will be 100% colonised:
neat eh?
anyway, whats the whole idea about all this taping and bla? by doing it this way, you can more or less infinitely reuse your bags, without sealing them or poking holes inside or whatever. clearly, when spaning the bags, you have to maintain aseptic condeitions, meaning you will have to use a flowhood or a glovebox, but ive also had success in open air, eventhough this is just due to me being incredibly lucky sometimes.
but you know what they say, fools are the lucky ones, god damn im one hell of a fool then.
aight guys, 'njoy! peace ohm
*edit* alternatively, if one does not want to use the tape for some reason, you can simply fold over the bags top a couple times and secure it in place. you can use standard rubberbands, or clamps or whatever for it:
image nicked from somewhere on the 'oomery.
loadem to the pc:
and impulse seal:
(both images nicked from the nook)
anyway i still like my way better, since i can re-use the bags, by sealing them you wouldnt be able to do so.

i love people who do not read threads properly and ask stuff that is already COVERED in the thread itself.
here for you again:

oh and its not sketchy at all - its badass

dude what are you talking about somewhat sketchy? He already explained soaking before PCIng gives the endospore bacteria a chance to germinate.
I hope you were saying you were sketchy in your understanding...because I think it is a nice pic tek.
so there.

pasteurisation broth is the remaining water from the pasteuristion process of dung or straw.
its quite ritch of nutes since during the pasteurisation some get strained of the substrate, and it would be too sad not to use it to further enritchen the grains by soaking / simmering.
also, if there was a ph buffer agend used in the pasteurisation water, you will give your grains a nice ph aswell, another very nice fact. peace ohm
