white oak sawdust

would white oak sawdust work good as a supplement to another substrate, such as straw or poo or whatever?

I always add about 20% hardwood sawdust to my h/poo compost mix toward the end of the composting process. Poo compost is very nutritious, but it becomes hard to work with without something to "fluff it up". Vermiculite works well, but sawdust is cheaper (usually free), readily absorbs nutrients from the compost, and provides lignin and other micro/macro nutrients not found in poo alone.

Any oak works well for growing woodlovers, too.
