Just read about Quorn, but havent tried it yet.
Made me look up fusarium venenatum, sounds like its grown kind of like Kombucha. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusarium_venenatum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kombucha
Have anyone tried growing it?
Was thinking it could be useful for surviving the zombie apocalypse

That seems like a pretty elaborate process for kombucha. Is that how kombucha is done commercially?

Dont think the system needs to be that advanced for a home system. Thinking something like this, but with a higher degree of cleanliness.
Was thinking a brewbucket with a magnetic stirrer and a way to add air and ammonia, if needed when doing one batch at the time and then just filter the entire load.

If you are still interested: https://mycelia.be/shop/m11-00-fusarium-venenatum/ I was experimenting with some solid state fermentation and tried to grow aerial mycelium (rhizopus, pleurotus, ganoderma) and have a plan to try few others strains but without much success. Now thinking about a simple as possible DIY bioreactor/fermentator and start home-scale "brewing" of mycelium as a protein source. That is a fairly straightforward fermentation process; (broth, culture, temp, ph, oxygen, RNA reduction...). It will be amazing to see in a future that people starting small lo-tech mycelium breweries.
