i never measure.. but 66 qt size monotubs, gypsum, 125 g verm and 555 g coir 5 quartz spawn, i expect 11-12 oz within two flushes, maybe a little more depending on the isolated culture used, usually never go for third flush, but often toss after first flush.
i only put out big because my fresh air is on crack; i ran the same cultures and consistently got close to half the yield for atleast a year, only change was cranking up the fresh air and keeping temperatures low 70's upper 60's f

If you're comparing dry weights to wet yield and cubes or most mushrooms are 90% water...
That would make 100% impossible to obtain, and that makes sense because you can't turn the entire dry weight of substrate into dry mushroom weight.
This makes math sense to me. . . Dry to dry. . . 
Still confused as to why you add the non-nutritional weight though . . . I guess its a cost factor both in material and waste disposal. . .

If it's actually non nutritional its still added for a reason. Hopefully a benefit. So despite it Maybe being non nutritional it's still a product you're using for some value to your grow. So its included.

I like tracking BE because it allows me to track water movement as well. This is more important in terms of yield IMO.

Substrate holds water. . . Water = yield. . . Makes sense for sure. . .
