Bags of white powder seized as part of a "huge drugs bust" at London's Gatwick Airport actually contained vegan cake ingredients, the British Transport Police said.
A member of staff at Purezza, a vegan restaurant with stores in London and Brighton, was transporting a suitcase filled with bags of cake mix when it was seized by police Wednesday afternoon.

Mold too; the medium is even better for mold - takes 4-7 days for the mushroom spawn to colonize it, only 2-3 days for mold.
Those HEPA filters for a clean room are fucking expensive

Use smaller containers [ziploc.com] instead of one big one to spread out the contamination risk. Pressure cook the containers with substrate in them to sterilize. You can inoculate in open air if you're careful, or under a still air box for better results.

That trap door spells goodbye to the clean room.
Even without strong warranties, it may still work reasonable well though in driving down the mold contamination, so thanks for that.

Yeap, the laminar flow hood is the pro solution. The enclosure is not that much of a cost to build (one can even inject some ozone into the flow - just take a corona unit from an old laser printer), but:
I.e. a case where you either "go pro" or, as an amateur, you are prepared to experience screw-ups often enough.
