Masters mix for everything but shiitake.

Shii likes 80% sawdust 20% bran

Use cheap wood pellets, doesn't really matter the wood type imo.

I feel using wheatbran and soy husks do increase yield for me. Still I tend to do subs without addition. I feel the need to only pasturize is golden. So chips, sawdust and gypsum it is.
When preparing the wood I always try to make a substrate that has different particle sizes. Beech chips of different sizes (petshop) are simmered for a couple for hours to achieve full hydration (check by breaking chips) and strained to field capacity after. This mix of chips is then supplemented with beech sawdust, in a way that the vermiculite is covered with BRF in PF-tek. Keep adding water to maintain field capacity.  An example recipe would be:
2 cups large chips –
2 cups medium chips –
2 cups small chips –
2 cups sawdust.
½ cup of gypsum could also be added.
