Sterilize bottled spring water before using on colonized cakes?
    #7400766 - 09/12/07 01:38 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

Hello

I've got some cakes which will be ready to birth any day now and I was planning to do the double end casing with vermiculite soaked in bottled spring water but I was wondering if I should sterilize the water before using it?

If anyone has got any experience with this I'd be glad to hear from you.

Thanks!

nah, there's no bacteria in bottled water. you can use unboiled bottled water after your cakes are birthed.

You don't even need to use spring water. Tap water works just as well. No boiling needed in either scenario.
