sterilization vs pasteurization

OK, so I have my Hpoo. I'm gonna do a myc/grain to Hpoo. Now with my Hpoo, I was planning on doing a PC cook, is this the best method, or would a pasteurization be better in order to maintain some type of flora/fauna? Would sterilization cook off any beneficial micro-nutrients?

don't sterilize hpoo it would indeed get rid of any beneficial bacteria
pasteurization is the way to go

Pasteurize it. If you sterilized it you would be killing beneficial organisms leaving it open to contaminants.

Only sterilize hpoo if you are making spawn bags and are going to inject with LC.
If you are using spawn, just pasteurize the poo.

I'm afraid I won't do the pasteurization correctly. If I sterilize (use oven bags for PC cook) will I totally ruin it or will it still work for a casing sub.?

its easy to pasteurize with oven bags .. just moisten the poo fill some bags seal and heat in the oven at 170 for a couple of hours. do a search for oven pasteurize. otherwise you put them in jars cover the top with foil and bring to a boil in a large pot of water .. use a thermometer to read the temp inserted into one of the jars through the foil. when it hits 140 turn off the heat and just watch the temp it should go up to 160 ,165 don't let it go over 170 if it goes to low like back down to 150 then turn the heat back on again for a few minutes.. you want to keep them at 160 for at least an hour ..
