Anno, The reason I wrote this isn't because of a contamination problem with rye in any way for myself. I wrote this because so many people have expressed that rye is impossible to work with, constantly becoming contaminated inevitably. I wanted to give them a step-by-step on the proper ways of preparing it and what has worked for me without fail. =P

Ripper, I passed the link for everyone, who is interested in rye techniques. I didn?t assume you to have difficulties to prevent contamination, from what I read in your posts, you are doing quite well. Yust one additional question; Why don?t you simply let the pressure cooker off the cooking plate for 15 minutes to let the pressure settle down but use this forced and under some circumstances dangerous "knive"-technique?------------------ It?s easy to do without silver and gold or even pleasures of love but its hard to do without mushrooms.

Anno, Well when doing a batch of 24 jars, even with 2 pressure cookers that each hold 4 jars, it would take quiet a while to finish... So in Doing the rapid cool method, I can cook the jars for an hour, and have the next batch upto pressure 15 minutes after those ones are done, using traditional methods it takes about 45 minutes to get the pressure down, take the jars out and get the pressure back up, this way the water is still boiling hot when the next jars go in. =P

Ripper: I think we'll be swapping some stories in the near future. I realy appreciate the info you posted on rye. Do you have any experience in sterilizing rye, and then transfering it to spawn bags (ala F.P.)? My thinking being; Use a basket in a pressure cooker (after the 24hr. soak), and then transfer to a F.P. filter bag and enoculate. Each bag would yield ~600 cu. in. of substrate with only a single exposure to contams.
