Tomorrow we begin the process of breaking down starch into amylose. This occurs after starch is broken down into simpler sugars via Amylase Enzyme or the catalyst commonly found in human saliva.
Our sample was better behaved today
Temperature inside the incubator was 23.2 C down a sweltering 9.6 C since yesterday.
Outside of the hermetic jar
23.6 C
A massive difference of 2.3 C!
