We are going to have a huge sale on our 3 lb rye spawn bags within the coming weeks. Only $11.99 each! Stay tuned for more details.
We use the Professional Injection Port bags not those homemade silicone injection ports. Always ask a company which one they use before buying.
These bags are great for Primary spawn generation or direct fruiting for
some mushroom species. You can use our self healing injection port to inoculate with spores or live cultures.
Our system for processing grains:
- First, the grains are rinsed 2-3 times to get out all of the dirt and excess materials.
- Then, we soak for 12-24 hours in hot water and add 15 ml of Gypsum (for calcium and sulfur and to keep the grains from sticking together.)
- After the soak, we put the pot on the stove and bring the water temperature to 170-180 degrees. This temperature is ideal because the kernels don't usually bust at this temp and it's high enough for water to evaporate.
- The grains are poured through a strainer and vigorously shaken to vent steam and evaporate the excess water.
- Finally, we measure out 3 lbs per substrate bag and then pressure sterilize for 2 hours at 15 psi. Each bag is allowed to cool and then sealed with an impulse sealer.
