Contents: 1. 100g of Malt Extract Agar Powder (MEA) with instructions. Here are some basic instructions: 1. Add about 32 grams per liter of water (distilled water is preferred). 2. Bring the mixture to a boil and mix well. 3. (Recommended) Autoclave the mixture for ~30 minutes at 15psi (121Β°C). 4. Pour enough agar to coat the bottom of each Petri dish. 1 Liter makes about 40 to 50 plates. 5. Let the agar cool down and solidify (this takes about 1-2hrs). 6. Have fun with your mycology experiments. Thanks so much for considering our business and our product! Review: I used it for working with mushroom mycelium and it worked great for me. It was my first time ever using agar and it was easy and I was successful the first time. Review: It is difficult to line up the device so that it locks into place with the filter. It would not take much to provide a red dot or something to help line up the device with the tiny hole. ## Features - MAKE 70% MORE PLATES-AN EXCELLENT VALUE: Evviva Sciences Malt Extract Agar Powder makes 70% more Petri dishes compared to other brands.

It was my first time ever using agar and it was easy and I was successful the first time. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Review *by P***C on 11 November 2024* It is difficult to line up the device so that it locks into place with the filter. It would not take much to provide a red dot or something to help line up the device with the tiny hole. ### ⭐ Review *by D***N on 19 January 2024* In my beginning days of mycology I thought I needed to buy things like this but then I learned that you can buy like a kilo of LMEA plus Agar Agar for basically the same price as this which is basically a shot glass worth of stuff. This is ripoff city. Please just buy regular MEA, agar agar, and active yeast. It’s literally that easy. 500ml distilled h2o, 10 g agar agar (the type they use for food). 7.5 g of MEA (type used for brewing beer), 0.25 g of dry active yeast. Mix, PC for 20 minutes, pour into Petri dish and you have perfect plates for rhizomorphic growth. ## Frequently Bought Together - Malt Extract Agar Powder 100g by Evviva Sciences, Can Make Over 100 Agar Petri Dishes, for Mold & Fungus, Ideal for Mushrooms & Science Projects - 30 Pack Plastic Petri Dishes with Lids,90 x 15mm Bioresearch Sterile Petri Dish,Culture Dishes for School Science Projects,Seeding,Storage,Biological Themed Party - Parafilm M PM992 All Purpose Laboratory Film,Semi-Transparent --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/634060496-malt-extract-agar-powder-100-grams-evviva-sciences-make-over](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/634060496-malt-extract-agar-powder-100-grams-evviva-sciences-make-over) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
