Mushroom Cultivation Autoclave Sterilizer (50X )

Original price was: $1,245.00.Current price is: $1,120.00.

All-American Pressure Sterilizers are the gold standard in sterilization for mushroom growers. Unlike regular pressure cookers, they feature a stopcock that prevents steam from escaping once ideal temperatures have been achieved. And their exclusive, precision machined “Metal-to-Metal” sealing system prevents contaminants, while positive action clamping locks align the cover to the base forming a steam tight seal. They also feature gasketless lids, which means opening and closing is easy. And because they’re crafted from the finest hand cast aluminum to resist aging and corrosion, they are truly “built to last.”

How it works

Just a small amount of water is needed to create the dry steam for this sterilizer. After achieving a minimum temperature of 250°F(121°C), and a pressure of 17psi, the dry steam penetrates the contents, making them sterile in 35 minutes and ready for immediate use. No wiping down is necessary to remove chemical residue or moisture, and cutting edges are not dulled.

Using your sterilizer

Always remember to operate your All American Sterilizer with (preferably distilled) water. Be sure to check the manual and adjust parameters for high altitudes.

Jars, bottles, slants, etc. must be loosely capped so the steam can vent. Tools can be sterilized wrapped in foil.

Start with the control valve open. While the unit heats up, allow steam to be released from the valve for 5 minutes, then close the valve. Pressure will start to build and when the pressure gauge reaches the green zone (17-18 psi), open the control valve again and let it vent for 3-5 minutes.

When pressure returns to the green zone (17-18 psi), start timing the cycle for 35 minutes. When the cycle is done, shut off the unit and vent from the control release valve again but do not open the lid until pressure gauge reads 0 psi.
