PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for preparing a bottled medium capable of efficiently and stably performing bottling and cultivation of a medium by enabling bottling of a medium which is made by mixing a nutritional material such as shochu lees, and whose viscosity becomes high to lose liquidity through adjustment to a water quantity suitable for cultivation, by means of a packing device for packing a conventionally used medium with liquidity in a culture bottle.SOLUTION: This method for preparing the bottled medium comprises packing a medium in a culture bottle with a packing device 2. Specifically, the method comprises, when mixing a nutritional material and water-containing required materials, reducing a water quantity of a medium as compared with a required water quantity for cultivation after mixing, and packing the product in a culture bottle with the packing device 2, and adding water to the medium packed in a culture bottle with a water adding device 5 so as to adjust the water quantity of the medium to the required water quantity.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】栽培に適した水分量に調整すると粘度が大になって流動性が失われてしまう焼酎粕等の栄養材を混合してなる培地を、従来から用いられている流動性を有する培地を培養瓶に詰めるための詰め込み装置により瓶詰めできるようにして、培地の瓶詰めや栽培を効率よくかつ安定して行える瓶詰め培地の調製方法を提供できるようにする。【解決手段】詰め込み装置によって培地を培養瓶に詰める瓶詰め培地の調製方法において、栄養材と水を含む所要の材料を混合する際、混合後の培地の水分量を栽培に要する所要の水分量よりも減じておき、その後前記詰め込み装置2にて培養瓶に詰め、同培養瓶に詰めた培地に加水装置5によって水分を加えて同培地の水分量を前記所要の水分量となるように調整するように構成した。【選択図】 図1
