No grain it would just be pasteurization for manure based subs.. You’re gonna have to wait because as it currently stands an op of that size would probably draw more attention than I’m comfortable with. But if they go legal in the next Few years best beleive thats whats goin down. Shipping containers would be perfect for mid sized commercial cubes kinda like RR used to do back in the day but I’d want it insulated. One steam generator would work for multiple rooms.

Got the idea from a visit to an agaricus farm, they compost dairy manure and straw outdoors then steam it in place in gigantic concrete rooms before inoculating. They call it 2 stage composting but the second stage is basically just pasteurization.

Yeah, it does seem to be working alright for the sawdust blocks I've been making.

I'm curious about not using grain. It's always been a pain in the ass for me.. even with the flow for I've made, I still have contamination issues.

Do you think this setup would work better with bags using Coir/HPOO/BRF?

I want to grow gourmet and medicinal mushrooms.
I've had success with agar, grain, sawdust etc.

But eventually contamination sets in and poof. Ground zero. I'm just trying to find the best way to sterilize, and avoid contamination. I know having a rock solid procedure is the way to accomplish this, but it seems like each method I try ends up with similar results. Over half of my spawn contaminates. That's on a good day.

So I thought using bags would he better - one time use and all - then maybe using a different sterilization method - low vs high pressure, etc.


Does What The Fungus use oats? I know they use sawdust bags..

Great discussion everyone :smile:
