Newb with celiacs. Will this substrate and casing work?

Hey guys. I've been hanging around for a while reading up and making a purely theoretical plan for my own imagination. I can't use many of the popular grains discussed because I have celiacs disease. I was hoping I could get a review of my plan and make sure I have covered all my bases.
I plan to use red milo with milled flax and quinoa prepped in coffee with the 50:50 casing of peat/verm, crushed oyster shells and calcium carbonate. I'll be using my syringes to inoculate and prep an lc first
I guess I'm more concerned about ensuring this is the propper casing for this grain, and I'm not sure if I need to use vermiculite with in the substrate.
I was also curious if I could use this substrate mix for tampensis and mexicana a.
I've invested in the proper sterilization equipment, and built a glove box, incubation chamber and a fruiting chamber so I want to make sure my ducks are in a row.
thank you all in advance astrodelic

Please read the forum rules....
Rules Thread-READ BEFORE POSTING
3. Spores are sold for microscopy use only so mycologists can ID mushrooms. If you're going to misuse them to grow a controlled substance, keep it to yourself. Any post which mentions 'such and such' vendor, will be deleted and you'll receive an official warning. Do not plug non sponsors.
4. Do not bump your own thread for at least 24 hours. It's not fair to the other posters to have your thread constantly bumped to the top. Violators will have their thread deleted.
Also, I suggest skipping LCs all together, that is just asking for problems.

If you are just casing grains, there is no need for verm unless it is n your casing layer mix.
But I would suggest spawning to a bulk substrate, to get the most bang for your buck.
Casing straight grains sucks IMO.

Turn the glovebox into a still air box, where the gloves are attached to your hands and not the box.
No need for an incubation chamber.
Optimal temps are mid 70s throughout the whole grow, but anywhere from 65F-80F is acceptable.
Incubation is outdated/uneeded unless temps in the range stated above cannot be kept.
What kind of FC?

Actually OP the grains they are grown on will not cause the fruits to contain gluten 
Every single edible mushroom I know of that is grown commercially is on grains at some point in the process.

I apologize to all. I have read the rules, and am cer grateful for receiving only a warning.
Thank you for pointing me towards the bulk subsrate. I'm thinking about following this mix: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/11916595#11916595
This was the fruiting chamber tek I was looking at following http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/6426934#6426934
I had read that edible mushrooms often absorb gluten when grown off of gluten containing grains (I've avoided mushrooms at the store because of this : /) is that not true of cubes then?
Thanks for the replies guys

If it is detected it is only in very very miniscule amounts. As far as I know, it is not detected in 99.99% of cases. That is, all the cases I've seen. There may be an exception.
Since we're a lawsuit happy country in the US at least, this has led to a lot of hearsay and disclaimers about mushrooms absorbing gluten from the grains they are grown on. This is not been proven to be true though.
Mushrooms are considered "gluten-free."

Astrodelic, I have celiac also, and my wife is a Ph.D. nutritionist. She has walked me thru the science of using grain spawn and how gluten, a long-chain protein, could not possibly be taken up into the fruiting body of a mushroom. The protein is simply too large to be transported without a liquid. So long as you don't end up with a piece of substrate on your fruits, you're good. The only way you could get an exposure when using a gluten-containing grain substrate would be to eat the substrate.

No problem 
I think this is a fantastic question, because information like this can be very hard to come by.

@chuckz/frank
do ya'll think sclerotia could be safely grown in rgs if one took the time to carefully clean it? I don't know if it would be any different since it grows in the mycelium.

Oh yes, in fact RR speaks about using RGS for sclerotia.
You can use RGS spawn for cubes and other species too.

I mean without concern for gluten.
I'm actually reading RR's posts on sclerotia right now.
