from what you're saying it also sounds like you didn't cover your jars before you put them in the pressure cooker.  You should stick to boiling them and cover them with the lids first and then firmly, with tin foil over the lids.  Then make sure the water isn't too high.  Further , you dont need that much of your slurry to innoculate the jars.  Maybe just a cc per.

General topics / bonnaroo sucks
September 11, 2008, 12:11:56 PM
I have to agree with Baph on that one.  I worked Bonnaroo in 2004 and it was lots of fun.  It was very ecclectic; I saw Patti Smith and Dangermouse, The dead, Burning Spear, Dylan, Primus, etc. I got in for free, but I thought it was expensive then at $160.  This year, its over two-hundred and the bands are so wierd.  Kanye West is playing.  What type of commercial shit is that?  If I go to a jam band festi, I dont want to hear MTV shit.  Thats why I'm like fuck Bonnaroo man. 

I say definitely stick to the kind local festies.  Though I did dig Langerado in 06 and I heard that Eco and Allgood  were good this year.

PF - Tek / micropore tape?
September 11, 2008, 11:58:32 AM
While we're on the subject of polyfill, is micropore tape a superior or inferior filter (for gas exchange)?

I think you're right.  Soon after I birthed them, the contaminant began to die and the mycelia are now growing over it and pinning.  I still don't think I'll eat them, but do you think I can take spore prints.  They're p.Tropicalis/and I really want some prints.

PF - Tek / yeast
September 09, 2008, 11:55:05 AM
hi, I'm a new user. 

I have cakes I just birthed, but they smell yeasty, very yeasty, so I'm assuming they have some yeast contamination.  They do have plenty of white fluffy mycelia though.  I was wondering if I have to tank them, or if they'll fruit and be nontoxic.  Also, what could be causing this, I've had plenty of contaminants before, but never yeast.
