SO GLAD YOU'RE BACK!

How is the square sterilizer coming? Really considered getting a 130 gallon bubba barrel but I think the loading and unloading you brought up- really makes me rather invest in a square one instead.

How has dry bagging your spawn been working out for you? You're just putting the water and millet into a bag and steaming it all together right? There isn't any excess water or anything afterwards?

Hi! whether spore green molds (trichoderma) are destroyed by atmospheric sterilization. How much time?

where can you buy a similar size pressure cooker instead of the no-pressure style?

So what time would you wanna run it at for grain spawn?

There are lots of videos of drums Sterilising mushroom spawns but never mentioned what they do to mushroom . Can you please give a brief explanation what it actually do and is it done before planting? For a beginner , even this leaves us with questions

Hit the ground runnin' lol. Great vid Eric. Any news on the square sterilizer coming?

Actually just got a quote today on the first unit, turns out they will be a bit more than expected but for 200 gallon capacity it should be well worth it.

Hey Eric. What was the reason for the top bags being sealed and the rest not? Is this due to them being closer to the vent and therefore more prone to contamination during cooldown?

@steelersrock300

the top bags are grain spawn which needs to be more properly sterilized because the mycelium will be just starting off in the grain. the rest are bulk substrate and itsmore convenient to leave them unsealed as inoculated grain will be added into the bags in a more mature state.

@Xavier Ruiz I’m looking for this answer too. I would assume so

So wait are they sealed or not?you said they were before hand.then you said they are only sealed a little bit?

hi eric.. are the filters on the bags wet when you take the bags out? thanks

@MyersMushroomsFarms

Yes they are damp

Just to verify for this sterilization process, you need to seal the bags before the sterilization process,since not under pressure and easier for contams to get in? Also have you experienced bags pop with this method?

No, you dont seal until after, the bags will pop if you seal them

Is 20 hours necessary? I'm thinking so because it's a vent to atmosphere and not a low pressure...1-2 psi sterillizer. Have you tried running after the warm up at 12hours or less?

@MyersMushroomsFarms

Its because its low wattage, it takes 12 hours just to get to temp. only 2000w heating 400 lbs.

Myers Mushrooms 12hrs to reach temp and then 8hr sterilisation? I guess that's not too bad for eliminating pressure and the worries that come with..

Is it possible to sterilize grain spawn in jars in one of these barrel steamers?

@MyersMushroomsFarms

Yes i have seen jars ran in these drums. The cycle time would be shorter too since the jars heat up quicker and its less total weight in there.

Does anyone know if you can use these bulk drum sterilizers for sterilizing grain spawn? Or are they only used for bulk substrate?

@MaxS535

you CAN but you either have to use the bags quickly, or run the cycle longer.

hey there. I'm currently developing a room I get to use for work and I want to put in a drum sterilizer, but its all regular 120v connections. What can I do to run the drum? I know they require 220

Rather than goes through all this trouble and money on sterilization machines and so forth has anyone ever attempted to cold water lime pasteurize sawdust/soybean hull substrate for spawn? Would love to hear if anyone has ever tried this. I seriously think it would work, probably would just need to let it sit longer in the lime water than straw. Let me know please if anyone has tried this.
