Here is how I make my grain bags, I have used a similar method for jars, however the water content will be significantly different.

Why Oats?

After experimenting with many different grains and ended up using oats as there are multiple advantages of using oats over other grains in my opinion.

Pros:

  • Very nutritious
  • Least labour intensive
  • Easy to work with
  • Cheap
  • Predictable outcome


Cons

  • Requires longer sterilization cycle

What you will need:

Ingredients:

  1. Whole Oats Grains (must be whole, not crushed or rolled)
  2. Water

Equipment Required:

  1. Unicorn 3T Grow Bags or similar (Must have a 0.2 micron filter patch designed for spawn production)
  2. Scale
  3. Laminar Flow Hood
  4. Impulse sealer
  5. Pressure Canner/Cooker/Autoclave

Method:
