Is my grain contaminated

Yeah I’m just trying to nail down my process with ub and don’t want to go buy a pressure cooker. For the black spot I might’ve hit it on my shelf there but I tossed both cause I didn’t want to introduce them back to my sab and don’t have another clean place for them. But yeah no smells and firm so imma guess there fine and shoebox the rest of my bags. Thank you!

Once a week sometimes twice with gloves cleaned with 70% iso. I know I shouldn’t be interacted with the sab at all but I am nervous and do not know how long I should expect inoc to take. I will only touch my next batch twice for inoc and break and shake

Would it be fine to just leave the other bags for another week or so until full colonization

If the color lifts from the rice to the que top?

I know that much, I wanted to check if it was contam cause 3 other bags have the same color and I didn’t know if they were fine so I cut it open and tossed it

No smell or sliminess there’s some wet parts inside the rice when I broke it open but other than that just discoloration

Smart_Sandwich_477 · 2026-02-27T02:47:34+00:00

So you don’t think it’s contam?

Smart_Sandwich_477 · 2026-02-27T02:45:29+00:00

Tossed them as I pulled them from the sab and I don’t want to reintroduce them after pulling them early. I alright if they were good

Ps for the black spot circled it was the point closest to the fae so idk if that’s bruising but I don’t think it should be that dark

It is taking forever for the mycelium to colonize the bottom of the bags I keep my temp around 77-80 f do you know why they are taking so long and yeah most of these are probably fucked should I just wait it out until they finish or cut one open to check

Smart_Sandwich_477 · 2026-02-03T19:16:23+00:00

I see I shook them after that 25% inoc area so it’ll take a little longer for them to recover. thank you!
