can't get lc to work
    #4529754 - 08/13/05 10:03 AM (18 years, 7 months ago)

well I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I can't get lc's to work for me. I cooked 5 half pints, 3 had 3cc of karo and 2 had 4cc of karo. I filled them with water to 100ml and pc'd for 15mins. The karo doesn't look like it was carmalized, I've had that happen before. The jars have a tyvek filter on them. Does it sound like I did everything right? In the past I tried to measure with a teaspoon and probably ended up with too much karo, or over pc'd it, or tried in a microwave.... so I'm trying to figure out what the hell I'm doing wrong and I'm running out of spores... Any tips would be great, I don't know how much they'll help though...I must not be able to follow instructions or something. Well tank in advance to anyone with ideas/tips.

Add your LC after you cook/pc them. (not trying to sound rude or anything but thats what it sounds like you said?)

Quote:

pc'd for 15mins




I would PC longer also... at least an hour.

You're wrong on both counts. First off LC will carmelize, 20 min should be the max you PC. I dont think the PC time is effecting him, it might be the ratio of karo to water. I use 2 tsp to 1 cup of water (which fills a 1/2 pt jar).

Hey Roadkill, I believe the link you posted was what I read that got me to try lc again, I did what was in the link....I guess it just took a while for the spores to germinate. Everything is looking good, I left my jars to sit a few more days...cause I was too pissed to clean them and now have some nice poof balls of myc growing.
