After the flask or duran has been emptied of molten agar, it should be allowed to cool down to solidify any leftover agar inside. Once it has solidified, the flask can be washed with warm soapy water to remove any residual agar before being autoclaved for sterilization. Remember to handle the glassware carefully to avoid any breakage.
