DRIPPY CORN TEK (altered recipe from @stunnin21 on IG): Add Popcorn (any corn will work, as I now use Whole Corn from Tractor Supply) to empty PC pot (I do either 4 or 8 pound batches, which makes roughly 8 or 16 quarts of hydrated grain). Then fill PC with water, until grains are covered with 3" of water above top of corn. At this point you then add 1/4 cup of corn syrup, and PC for 20 mins at 15 psi. Let the PC depressurize naturally, strain out corn and let it drain for 30 minutes (the corn does not need to be absolutely bone dry on the outside for this TEK). While corn is draining/drying, add enough vermiculite to each of your quart jars to form a thin layer across the bottom (this will aid in absorbing any slight excess moisture remaining from corn after final cook). Jar up popcorn as usual, and PC for 2.5hrs (150min). Allow PC to once again depressurize normally, and "hot shake" jars when removing them from the PC. Now youve got yourself your first batch of Drippy Corns!!

I use a 5 gallon bucket that has tons of holes drilled into the bottom and about 4-6 inches up the sides.

Pour in the corn and let it drain/cool for about 30 minutes like the recipe says.

Enough to cover the bottom of the jar is sufficient.

I use a pint jar and a jar funnel to fill… Do Not Overfill. You’ll want to leave a large enough gap to make a break and shake easy.

I use these lids I made with dual injection ports and a .2 micron filter patch. Super easy to do with readily available parts.
