I would just isolate the burnt smelling ones. I've never heard of that, never experienced it myself. Maybe you're just imagining things. But isolate them and let them keep growing to be 100% positive they're contamed

i have a question about jar smell. im cultivating 3 brv jars for my first grow. 1 of my jars looks perfect and but the other two are crumbling at the bottom, it kinda looks darker colored mush where it crumbled. the jars are about 75% colonized. the problem is the two jars that have mush at the bottom smell like sour mushrooms. so i cant tell if this is bad or not because they still smell like mushrooms. the perfect jar smells nothing like the other two, it smells fresh. so what should i do?

I know that the slower brf jars colonize the more they smell. I would assume its the rice decomposing. Its like a wet moldy sock smell. Not pleasant though not discusting. The same thing may apply to your grain jars. The smelly jars are doing just fine as far as I can tell. I wouldnt be worried unless its a severe overpowering odor. Light smells are probably normal.

Sock smell=bacteria.

Trade List! Don't use incubators. An incubator is for contamination as brothels are for STDs. Sure you get sex, but is it worth it?

After nearly a year, this four year old thread did not need reviving. Bacterial smell is well documented here, even a casual use of the search engine will turn up descriptions. Socks, apples, fermentation. Basically if you can smell it without sniffing the jar, it's likely to be bad.
