my girl innoculated 6 mycobags of 1000 grams rye grass seed and 500 ml coffee (folgers - 1 tablespoon per cup), and 500 ml H20. She innoculated w/ Mex A for sclerotia production. Of course she will keep everyone posted as she has 6 other bags that were just soaked w/ water (control group).
peace all

I was just brewing some coffee to give this thing a try with some millet I have and I got to thinking about a variable that some might have overlooked. I personally like to make my coffee strong as shit and others I know make theirs where it looks like tea. This variance would certainly effect the final outcome of any project and deffinately would skew the results of a large community experiment. Perhaps some kind of standard should be established.

the current standard is 50% of 'normal' brewed coffee, according to the measurements on the pkg. according to my can of foldger's, that works out to 1/2 tablespoon per cup .

jarhead said: Primary Nutrients :

Secondary Nutrients :
Calcium 389 ug/g Magnesium 448 ug/g Sulfur high ug/g
Notes: ND = indicates sample is below detection limit ug/g = microgram / gram "
So the question becomes, is the mycelium growing at a faster rate (if it is at all) because of the caffeine or because of the extra nutrients that coffe provides.
So once (and if) it is established that coffee (at 1/2 tablespoon per cup) speeds colonization, then the next step would be to use caffeine in a powdered form to one test group and coffee as the control.
Just a thought. But I am getting ahead of myself...

I dont know if its new for you , but i find this link : A PLAN TO REGENERATE THE BY-PRODUCTS OF COFFEE BEAN CULTIVATION --> We have chosen two species of saprophytes: the Oyster (Pleurotus Oystretus) and the King Stropharia (Rugosa Annulata ). Oyster mushrooms are recognized as capable of bioremediation of coffee waste. We have grown Oyster mushrooms successfully on coffee grounds, and experience leads us to believe that King Stropharia will grow on an extremely wide range of media . <-- Other link : Effect of the nitrogen source on caffeine degradation by Aspergillus tamarii --> Caffeine degradation as well as biomass production were characterized. <--

you know, trying some dilute coffee or caffeine in some agar plates might make a great experiment. thx for those links.

Has anybody considered trying to grow on straight coffee beans yet? I wonder if there would be a difference between roasted and green beans?

50% ? as in 50% of the liquid used, ie say making up 500ml, you used 250ml of prediluted coffee?
50% seems high.

That's interesting because about a year ago I read about a tek where someone innoculated halved beans and that they grew w/o contaming ever. It was a long time ago but I think I may have found it through erowid. I'll see about finding it again.

a note on the coffee brew soak.
I like to rinse mine well afterwards, so the question is, does the coffee actually absorb through the grain shell or does it sort of just stick to the sides?

if it were me, i'd just use 50% dilute coffee instead of the 1/4 cup of water normally used.
