Mycelium Extracts * 1
    #23753798 - 10/20/16 01:22 AM (7 years, 3 months ago)

I do extracts on fruit bodies, but I also wish to do extracts on mycelium. For this process, I'm not a fan of extracting from a mix of grain and mycelium. I would like to see if there is a way to separate the two first.

I was debating on this process:
1. Fully colonize a bag of grain
2. Dump out the colonized grain into a bucket of water, where the water comes up above the grain.
3. Use a drill with a paddle on it to quickly stir the grain, breaking the mycelium off the grains.
4. Dump it through a strainer into another bucket in order to catch the grain, but allow the mycelium/water to pass through.
5. Strain it again through a cheese cloth, and then through a microfiber cloth.
6. Dry what was caught in the cloths (short term results), and evaporate the water (loner term)
7. Do the extraction

It may sound like a lot of work, but I could make it efficient very easily. I even have an evaporation tunnel. It pushes dry, warm, filtered air through a tunnel full of trays.

Think it would be worth it? I remember reading that mycelium can grow into the grains, but I'm hoping the majority could be separated and extracted for a more high quality product.
