I am obsessed!

This block of Lion’s Mane grain spawn (800g on rye) is enough to:
– Inoculate 3 fresh grow bags
– Save ~200g for a grain-to-grain transfer

Rule of thumb: you’d usually use about 10% of the final substrate weight in grain for quick colonization. More grain = faster run, but it also means more resources spent.

Hi,This morning was all background work.
Transferred mycelium from an existing plate onto fresh agar to get a cleaner culture, finished up some grain work, and prepared for the next stage.

It’s the fondation; clean plates, healthy grain, precise transfers.

Colonization in full swing. Possibly my favourite part !

Been quiet. Weather turned and I’ve been outside sorting the usual, gutters, steps, a few cracks.
Inside, Lion’s Mane has been going strong. liquid culture is colonising grain, and I’ve just finished two small-run extracts.

One is a freeze-dried water and ethanol extract, clean and clear.
The other is a glycerin extract with freeze-dried Lion’s Mane, flavoured with green apple, mint and lemon. Just flavour and mushrooms.

The glycerin carries around 28 mg of extract per ml, equal to 224 mg of dried Lion’s Mane, or about 2.2 g fresh per ml. That’s above most glycerites out there.

I have 4 bottles I’d like to share. Just looking for feedback, not selling.
Comment, tag someone or share. I’ll pick four next week.

This is what a King Oyster becomes after 20 hours of freeze-drying.
Weightless. Crisp. Solid.
It keeps its shape, but none of the moisture it used to hold.
Now it’s just structure and sound.”

Trying something new this weekend !!! 🍄

Been working on a different kind of extract lately, using 99.9 percent vegetable glycerin. It’s vegan, halal, kosher, and alcohol-free, infused with freeze-dried fruit and botanicals for flavour.

Alongside that, I made a water extraction of Lion’s Mane, then freeze-dried it into a powder I can fold back in. Same mushroom, just a different format. It keeps the depth but opens it up to more people.

It’s not about health claims, it’s about taste. Something that works in food, cocktails, or just as it is. Sweet, aromatic, and more versatile than I expected. Curious to see where it goes.

Monday is for Maintenance.
Behind every healthy grow is a shed scrubbed top to bottom. I clean and disinfect all surfaces weekly with 70% ethanol and 10% bleach, and regularly re-pasteurize containers as needed.

Cross-contamination is always at the back of my mind!.

Fairy inkcaps covering the base of a tree on a walk near Dorking yesterday.
Hundreds of tiny caps pushing through moss and ivy, they pop up fast after rain, do their work quietly, then disappear just as quick.

The week.
