A few huge fruits, lots of smaller pretty little ones; half-dozen in one hand, six in the other. I think you nicely confirmed that study about bran supplementing. Also, smaller fruits have market appeal, too. I've seen them advertised as "baby French horn mushrooms"

Last update.
The five bottles with 37% bran yielded 2.5 lbs of mushrooms. I think it is better to prune and get a few large fruits, some of the jars were jam packed with stems.

It is useful that this species has tasty stems....those are huge!
Good work!

Very good and systematic work GroboClone. It seems to me that the BE does not increase significantly beyond 22% when you use higher and higher amount of bran. Do you feel if the orifice of the bottles would have been bigger in case of 37% bran batch the BE would have been much higher? And also if orifice of the bottle is the limiting factor do you feel the 2nd flush will be higher in case of 37% supplemented batch as compared to 22% one? Thank you.

showup- Yes, I think the bottle openings are the limiting factor.
Two things to try:
Smaller containers (1L?) with same size opening, same yield?
Same size containers with larger opening, bigger yield?
I don't know how good bottles would work for a second flush, they would need to be re-hydrated.

since you know your yield, would it be a bad idea to reintegrate 90% (or slightly less assuming a certain biomass has been convertend hence it is no longer present to be hydrated) of the yield weight instead of dunking in an unknown quantity of water?
