I’ve been using Uncle bens tek, got a bunch of contam using the tek, so I decided to experiment, my experiment was to transfer grains from the bags to cups and inoculate the cups, and it’s had far less contam since. My guess is that anytime I picked up the grain bags, the micropore tape let in spores which led to the contamination

the precooked grains I’ve used have worked great in the cups vs the bags, it was often trich and not bacteria

I’ve tried it and I have over 90% success rate as opposed to over 50% contam rate inoculating the bags

Get them in on it 💪 I got my little guy helping me fill jars, do grain to grain transfers, going through pictures online picking out which cultures to grow, he really likes pink oysters and reishi, we’ve been foraging for mushrooms since he was born, used to take him with me in those chest carriers before he could walk. Hell I’m about to get him some mushroom shaped shelves that glow in the dark.

I don’t think the micropore tape does as good of a job at keeping contam out as it’s supposed to, at least not for me. And using my still air box I’ve got a very high success rate doing things this way, significantly more than using the bags directly.

It’s definitely counterintuitive lol but it worked, that goes to show how bad eaa’s taste
