As an experiment, I mixed together a quantity of substrate to the ratios of :
3 verm 2 brf 2 water 1 fresh coffee grounds
according to what Ive read, my ph should be way off. Although, does the prior experience of anyone else dictate that I could be wrong and will this at all be salvageable?

It's pretty much destined to fail. Your water content is off and your pH is guaranteed to be fucked.
Follow the TEK.

the water content seems fine. any of the excess fluid evaporated away during pastuerization. The PH balance is what Im doubtful over. however, im wondering if it could be used as a bulk substrate for already colonized myc spawn.

You dont use coffee grounds. If you have some left over coffee from the morning then you can use ½coffee and ½water instead of just water

I can assure you it's not.

No it didn't. And why did you pastrurize this mix? It needs sterilized.

It's fucked, and no you probably can't use it for anything.
Noobs need not innovate.

i can assure you that the water content is fine if nothing else and so far ive only pastuerized all of my substrates with no problems. however i understand the need for complete sterilization when dealing with brf and coffee. Ive also read elsewhere of how fully colonized mycellium will feed off of a similar mixture without any problem. although what i read could simply have been outdated or incorrect material. Quote:

Ive read of this before as well and I plan to try it out eventually as a pf tek.
