Plain Verm Contam

#393352 - 09/13/01 12:46 PM (22 years, 2 months ago)

When i do casings i always use plain verm. I dont use anything organic because i always seem to get 1 casing eact time where plain verm contams. The lid stays on except wheni checking the casings, if they feel dry i give them a few sprays of h20/h2o2 solution. anyone think of anything i could be doing wrong? also can u presure staralize a jar, then let it cool tehn presure sterilize it again a couple days later? i got a lot of explded grains. (2 dif batches)

You could always try to sterilize your verm by PCing it in a jar before casing with it.

A second sterilization won't unexplode your grains. It may in fact explode some more, as well as dry out your substrate.
