Hi doodlekitty,
Ok defiantly getting to be a pro now! Not as hard as it seems, ok now I'm defiantly interested in trying this. Have you thought of posting pics of your sterile flasking technique (have someone take pics of you in action and post them) that would be an awesome teaching tool for us all since you've had such great success at this. Thank you for keep us all informed and updated on here you are a inspiration to me and probably many others.

They're looking good! I can't wait to do my own flasking one day. I need a life, first!
