i inoculated 2 jars last thursday and im keeping them in an old small cooler that im also gunna use for fruiting chamber cuz i have nothing else and im poor....and everytime i open it to check the jars i get hit in the face with a shitty smeel, but i smell the jars and dont smell anything...only in the cooler...it goes away after i fan it out with paper.....does this mean one of them is contaminated or what....i used a blender to chop my br into brf but not all the rice was totally chopped and in powder form, and so could that be causeing the smeel since it would have cooked while boiling and just sitting in a moist jar for a week?

Well, a cooler is filled with water and ice to keep beverages cold. Maybe you didn't dry out the cooler completely and you closed the lid and mold started growing. I suggest you scrub the entire cooler out with a bleach solution to kill the mold(if any) and dry thoroughly. Your jars should be sealed, so you shouldn't be able to smell anything, if you did everything right, your jars should be fine.

Have you washed out the cooler before hand?
Maybe try taking the jars out of the cooler for a day, and seeing if you still get a smell when you open it?
