Massive LC Questions
    #7201435 - 07/20/07 07:22 AM (17 years, 5 months ago)

I would do a bunch of smaller LC at the same time but I only have one magnetic stirrer.

So I need enough LC to inoc around 15 Pounds of WBS. Is it a bad idea to do a massive LC like a gallon? Any reasons why? I never see it done so I'm figuring theres a reason

Last when a LQ is done is there a gallon of LC? When I look at pics it looks like people say a LC is done when the bottom quarter is done. Is there a reason why people dont let the whole jar colonize with LC?

WHOA!!!!!! 15 pounds! You aren't playing around are you!

OK here is what I recommend. Get some baby bottles and make up like 3 LCs with honey water. Once you get a viable LC use it to transfer to your large LC. This way you know you have a good LC on your hand. People do gallons of LC all the time. Make sure you have a good lid for it.

I would recommend the RTV silicon and high temp tubing method.

Thanks TrippinTeddy ... you have been alot of help. Sounds like a good idea, I'll make up 3 or 4 baby bottles using agars tek and then transfer them to a gallon jar using the tube w/ polyfill method.

One more thing,

Do I need to use a gallon canning jar? I was hoping there would be some way to use a pickle jar or something. I saw agars tek and he just silicones the seal and then used to rubber tubes commin out the top.

So the question is ...Is a canning jar required or can I use some other type of gallon jar?

I imagine any jar with a lid will work fine.

Just make sure you get your LC ratios right. 100ml of water to one teaspoon of Honey.

Good luck man.

Just FYI, 12 lbs for 25 minutes cracked my pickle jar. It was on the spacer in the cooker as were the other jars. I don't think they're designed for hi temps.

with a large volume it is best to make a smaller "starter" culture. This is what brewers do. If you inject spores into a large volume they get "lost". Start a small one, then when thick inject into the big one.
