Agar Protocols

MAE Recipe #1

The best recipe that has worked for me so far.

• 10g Agar Agar
• 7.5g Malt (note: if liquid candid, add more)
• 500 ml boiling purified water

notes:

• stir between sterilization to disallow sugar to solidify
• sterilization: 20min @ 15psi

If you have electric cooker like Tesla Cooker, pressure might fluctuate so I go for aprox. 30 min total)

Optionaly wait 24-78hours to see if no contaminants are present. source: Mycology Exploration YouTube
