It's just the way it is when you start out, buck up little camper, you will get it if it means enough to you.

If you follow Roger's grain tek, it will work, or the problem isn't with the grains.

Soak for 36 hours, drain and rinse until the endospore smell is gone, let them drain/dry for a good six hours prior to packing into jars, PC for 90minutes at 15 psi, let it cool.
then repeat the process again, only this time adding two table spoons of instant coffee to 1mug of boiled water and use this in with the soak water, let soak for 10-12 hours and repeat the wash/dry/PC cycle again...
Only way rye works for me, otherwise it's failure no matter what. take care.
Hah. You changed it a little bit from last time but wow. Do you live in a dump. This is the only way grain works for you? You have other issues if yo uhave to soak and pc twice just to get grain to work

Not that many people like popcorn around here, but...?
Here is cracked corn. Rinsed in HOT water. Soaked for 24 hrs. Rinsed again in Hot water. Strained for 1 hr. Added field capacity vermiculite. PC 90 min 15 PSI.
 12 days into incubation
Here is cracked corn. Simmered for 30 mins. Rinsed in cold water. Strained manually. PCed 90 mins at 15 PSI.
 11 days into incubation
Once while doing WBS, I let it soak for 2 days and the seeds started to sprout.

I don't know what the deal is. PF tek, Grain tek, it's easy, just follow the tek correctly. Cleanliness is a necessity. I went from PF, to LC, then to grain since I joined this forum. Now I'm starting on agar petri dish cloning, and I haven't been around all that long. Read what's going on pay attention to who is posting you'll figure out who's advice you can use as gospel pretty quick.----If you are not into it yet, you have to--have to!--learn LC teks.

I posted on this same thing the other day.
I feel I followed the tek perfectly but alas no growth.
You say you even used an LC and it still didn't work?

No, I am not kidding anyone.
If I could get away with only soaking for 24 hours, rinsing, drying and pc'ing only ONCE I would LOVE IT! ha ha but unfortunately, it does not work for me.
What does work for me is the method I described, and yea, dont get me wrong. It is a major pain in the ass, that is why I use the 22qt mirror PC to soak large amounts of rye all at once and prepare extremely large batches.
