Any one try this on their casing?
    #5486171 - 04/06/06 11:07 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

This is my 2nd attempt at casing, My first attempt was a success but low yield.

I read a little more, and discovered the problems I had on my 1st casings. I also did 2 cakes and those were mostly a failure.

I'm into casings way more because the yield and ease to create.

So I'm doing 4-6 new casings and I'm doing my own experiments here and there, And I was checking to see if any one does this technique to achieve a good pinset.

I placed the casings covered in the incubator for about 4-6 days. Slightly adding a very light mist to keep the top layer of casing very moist. This slows the mycelium from taking over the surface completely.

** Now that its been a while 5+ days in the incubator, take a long flat knife and scrape the top layer of casing off (flat and evenly) so you have now removed the uncolonized casing.

Now you have a casing with a surprisingly even colonized surface, place into the fruiting chamber as soon as you can. Results may very but I got a pretty good pinset.

Any one try this before?
