just ordered some b+ and golden teachers. this my 1st attempt. i ordered the spores from a site recommended by several posts on this forum. gonna try the simple step-by-step method this site gives ya. don't have a pressure cooker. can someone tell me exactly how to do it in a pot?? does refrigeration really work for faster pinning/fruiting?? any other tips for a novice??
Welcome!
For boiling.
>Put a clean rag or towel on the bottom of your pot.
>place jars into pot.
>fill with water about a quarter to half way up the jars.
>bring the water to a rolling boil.
>observe to see if water can get into the jars, if so remove as much as needed.
>put the lid on.
>when rolling boil is reached set timer for 60 minutes.
>take them out and shake em around (with an oven mit of coarse.)
>let cool> Innoculate.
-Refridgeration has not been proven to initiate faster pinning, IMO.
Tips>> Follow the directions as well as possible and keep it simple and steril. Keep us posted.

thanks PW. i used that method and so far so good. small white deposits r forming on several of my jars. more importantly, no signs of contamination. i'll keep you posted.
