If I PC Rye.....PLEASE HELP
    #5486038 - 04/06/06 10:32 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

If I Pressure Cook jars of rye (1 cup rye, 1 cup h20), and let them sit for like 8 days, and dont see any contamination, is it safe to say that the endospores of the rye are dead and my jars are sterile?

Thanks, I'm tryin to determine where my contamination is coming from.

If you PC them for two hours, you can be assured you've killed them off enough to get the grains colonized. I think it's a mistake to let jars sit after sterilization unless you never plan to use them. The sterilization process gives you a three to four week window of opportunity to get the grains colonized. To 'completely' sterilize a jar of rye would take 24 hours in the PC and would turn the grains to mush.

By the way, the endospores are bacterial. Mold spores are killed by fairly low temps, so if your contamination problem is green, then it's being introduced after sterilization.
