Justin,

        OK, I see what's going on.

So then, since the instantaneous pressure values are so variable, is there a reason to implement pressure coupling for an MD run?

HI,
I am trying to simulate the behavior of short peptides in an aqueous solution. When I look at the log of the progress of initial minimization runs and longer production runs I am seeing crazy variations in the pressure, including negative values and positive values well into the 100's of bar. The temperature is equilibrating and stable, so I am thinking that I have missed some salient feature of the barostat. In one case I am not setting any of the relevant barostat parameters, relying on the default values to work - is there someplace where i can find waht the defaults values would be?

Defaults are applied by grompp; the mdout.mdp file will show all default values if you haven't specified them. Otherwise, check out:

manual.gromacs.org

The behavior you are seeing is quite normal.  See here:
