I didn't think manure went into pf-jars...but I know nothing about the pf-tek, so apologies if that's ignorant of me  You going for pans or just cubes on manure? As long as the water content is good, there should be no problems from an excessive amount of sterilization with what you present...but why PC twice? It's possible that you didn't sterilize it long enough with that method, but I don't know, having never done 2x45 or reading of others doing it. I usually sterilize spawn jars for 90 minutes at 15 psi and have no problems whatsoever. Once you hit 120+ minutes, you start to run into problems with moisture content and spawn degradation.

Once you hit 120+ minutes, you start to run into problems with moisture content and spawn degradation.  Quart jars at 90 minutes is no problem. But a half-pint jar will lose a lot of moisture. If you plan on sterilizing for a long time, you can adjust for moisture, but if the jars are already made using a standard recipe, they need to be cooked according to the recipe. 20-30 minutes at 15 psi is plenty enough for half-pint jars.

If you overcook them the cakes get very tight and the Mycelium does not spread properly through the whole cake... And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not percieve the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, "brother let me remove the speck from your eye", when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye?-Yeshua ben Yoseph

Thanks for that. I believe something does get altered that effects it in a negative way personally tho I dont have scientific proof. All of my post are fictional in nature for the purpose of self entertainment.
