Source of cheap PC-able NON-filter patch poly bags?
    #19264596 - 12/12/13 07:38 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

So I'm getting back into the commercial mushroom game after a long break. I'm compelled by this idea of minimum or no supplementation, which wasn't really considered viable when I was growing. This is a major plus, obviously, because you don't have to cook the hell out of your bags, as with normal supplemented subs.

I'm interested in developing a method of growing reishi on 5% to 0% supplemented sawdust using cheaper, non filter patch bags; using a polyfil secured top instead of sealing them.

I don't currently have a good way of pasteurizing them, other than in a PC(I've got 4 of them so I might as well put them to use). I think just zapping them up to 15psi for 5min or so should do the trick, but I need a bag that will tolerate some heat. Something along the lines of these: http://www.associatedbag.com/ShowProduct.aspx?ProductID=4226&CategoryID=472

Anyone have any experience with this method have any advice or links to comparable products?

Check out the lime pasteurization thread.  Problem with a 15 min cook is that the center of the bag will never hit temp.

Using unsupplemented sawdust you can use any container and lipas tek.
I've used buckets, bags,  etc. Because it just needs to be able to hold "pretty hot"  sawdust for a few hours, doesn't need to be polypropylene because it doesn't need to be pressure cooked.


Instead of supplementing the sawdust, just use a little extra grain spawn.

Have some medicinal mushrooms and want to get the most out of them?  Try this double extraction method.
