Autoclave 150L review

- Опубликовано: 17 апр 2023
- I’ve been using this autoclave for close to 3 months and it’s really leveled up our production.
Here is a quick overview of its functions and my pros and cons on the machine.
This machine was purchased through Enrique at Desert Moon Mushrooms. Reach out to them if you are interested in purchasing.
Thanks for the honest review!
For those wondering prices are roughly 3000$ delivered for the base model.
We work with the manufacturer to get custom machines made.
For example this unit is in US units and can reach 30psi usually. but in many local jurisdictions anything above 15psi would require additional annual permits and inspections so we can have them derated to 15 psi.
Lead times suck but bulk ordering and direct shipping from manufacturer is how we are able to keep the price so low.
2 months lead time for a non modified unit (deg c, 30 psi)
3 - 4 months for modified units but can be longer depending on customs and world events (covid shutdowns delayed Justin's order a bit)
Wow… I figured I’d jump online and find a big one for like $500…
Can you make a video of it's proper settings, adjustments etc for proper sterilisation
Great review. About to try mine.
Thanks for the honest review, I'm currently running 2x 23qt prestos and really looking for something more efficient on a larger scale. I'm UK so will have to probably order from China so like u said with lead times it'll be long.
Love the timer function I'm always waiting for them to finish before I can relax as heard so many people forgetting or accidentally letting them run dry.
Love the fact that it's just plug and play! I was expecting it to be 3 phase and have to all be installed by an electrician.
Thanks a million for this review, I honestly believe if you were into selling the spray and grow kits this would be ideal for sterilizing bulk substrate bags ie :20 x 4.5 lb bags at a time, 2 runs a day ,200 kits a week!
Food for thought…
Would you make a video on how to fold the bags properly to avoid bursting? Pleaseee
And how you cook your grain too?
Thank you
This answered all the questions abouy setting up mine.
Do you preseal your grain or do you leave the bags open?
I ordered mine through a different company but Im having over cooked grain bags do you have any advice
Video of loading and running machine?
How much power (kWh) does it take to run? Have you measured it?
Have you had any issues with this unit? I know many have.
Where do you buy it? Could you get me a link?
How do you operate? I bought this recently but still couldn't operate even after following manual. It sucks 😞. I set 2 hours time, 121C for temperature, put 1 for pre, then. Press ENT button for grain sterilization. After that it goes only upto heating from ready. It never goes to sterilization and END from heating. It just keeps showing heating whole day. Please help how do you operate? Thanks
This happened to me too.
It stayed on heating for me because it wasn’t able to get to the set temp before the pressure release valve would blow.
Try lowering your set temperature and pay attention to when you pressure valve releases.
Thanks for quick reply But if I lower the temperature below 121C how it will sterilize ? Here it never reached 121C , reached up to 120C and then pressure valve keeps releasing automatically
Any advice on loading it? Mine keeps having burst bags and overcooked grain. I ran it at 121C for 3 hours with 30 3qt bags.
We load ours vertically and haven’t had a bursted bag since
3 hours is over kill to start.
@longbeachmushrooms8142 I'm having same issue running it at 2 hrs
No busted bags though just over cooked grain
@@joshflanders9535 if bags busted it’s getting to hot and psi is over 17
How many 5lb bags can you fit in there?
We fit 20-23 5lb grain bags in it at a time
