hmm i've cased a fresh cake, then dunked it afterward and it's still growing
and i've also failed at trying to spawn a cake after it's 4th flush
so i'm not really positive but i think you could probably get away with it
just wait for someone more expert than i

Herbal, I just did that exact thing I fruited a cake and dunked for the 2nd flush and instead for rolling I just crumbled and cased with MGMC. I wasn't sure if it would work either but it looks like this now seems OK
 though I don't know if it is recommended BTW this is my first casing just with plain verm, but this was a fresh cake

Well I don't know that it is exactly mandatory but I figure give it the best chance you can by adding more moisture after that first flush drained it. I just do 24 hours in a pint jar in a cool dark place held down with wire.

Cool. I might do it. Do I sterlize the water? and Can I case it as soon as I crumble it or should wait 24 hours? Thanks

Nah I don't sterilize sometimes I do use distilled though but I've used regular tap too (our water here is pretty clean)make sure you rinse under the tap after the dunk to clear any loose verm/pins. A lot of people say to say to wait 24 hours to allow myc. to regroup after crumble which is probably good but I just cased right away.
