Hey everyone,

I have just inoculated some jars.

Now i understand some people take the foil off and replace it with coffee filters for better air exchange.

Is this recommended to be done jsut after inoculation or should I wait a week then change....

The jars are currently in the incubator

You don't need any cover over PF style jars, that include foil and tape. You can always toss a coffee filter over top of them though, it can't hurt.

For grain jars w/ filter tops, a coffee filter is like dust protection. I use them over top Polyfill lids.

Coffee filter won't hinder your gas exchange either, they work great.

I use the polyfill but i use the coffee filter over top the jar then screw the lid around it then pressure cook it with the foil on top of that.

Then i sit in incubator for about a week so the mycelium starts to take off THEN i take the coffee filter off for more air exchange.

NO CONTAMS SO FAR
