Dark Rye Flour questions
    #436686 -

While getting some bread and other various items I decided to take a trip down the flour section to look for any sort of Brown Rice Flour or Dark Rye Flour. To my suprise, thinking it would only be found in a Health Food Store, I found a rather large, cheap, no additive bag of Dark Rye Flour. No Brown Rice Flour. I understand that this stuff is relatively faster and works exactly the same way as Brown Rice Flour (ratio etc.). It only cost me $2.49 + tax CAD for a 2.5KG (5.5lb) bag of "No Additive" flour. The ingredients on the side only list one thing: Dark Rye Flour. I suspect this is the stuff I want and bought it. However, I understand it is harder to spot contamaniation with this stuff? I am pleased because a rather small (450 gram) bag of BRF was costing me $2.10 CAD w/o tax while more than 10x of this stuff is a dollar more expensive. How do you guys find this stuff works?

Dark Rye  & Vermiculite in my opinion is far superior as a growth medium over BRF . My jars colonize in 7 to 10 days. usually 7. Growth is noticeably faster than brown rice flour. I`ll never go back. As for spotting contams I`ve never experienced any more problem than BRF although Dark Rye is much darker when damp. Do some jars with that flour and I guarantee you will be impressed at the rate of growth:)

When could I expect first signs of colonization? I have one BRF+Verm jar sitting in incubation right now and havent checked it yet. It's only been two days. My last BRF+Verm jars I saw growth after 8 days.

I'd be careful with the rye flour.
There's a different water ratio needed then brf/verm.
It gets thick and clumpy if not done appropiatly

I did 6 jars on Thursday and saw first signs of germination on Sunday morning !!!! Less than 72 hours. If as Junkie says your mixture seems a bit wet just add a hair less. I mix 2/3 cup verm 1/4 cup water 1/4 cup Dark rye flour....Never had a problem with overly wet yet

Numba,

what do you have your incubation chamber set at? how much slower do you think it would be if I had it sitting at a 73 degree room temp?

Any problem with regular organic rye flour? I know that DARK rye flour means the bran has not been removed. Is that a crucial part of the nutrients, or has anyone tried regular rye flour? (No one local carries the dark variety)
