finally i'm trying this pressing method for cob curing. it's just an late experiment, becos the plant material was not fresh anymore, but it was curing in a jar for about two months or so (still alive by hydration level 64%). well, i decide to make it wet again, so i stored them in a plastic bag with piece of cucumber, and also i did spray a little bit of water on them. after that i pressed them together (small one 5gr dry weight, big one 10gr).
now they are already sweated for 1 hour in 50c + 16 hours in 40c. next i put them in a tight vacuum bag and ferment them in 30c for 5 to 7 days. no more rolling with ropes. also i like this shape a lot more.
