    I have picked up so many good detail watching this video. I was looking for an example of inoculating master's mix with Lion's Mane grain spawn, and here you are doing an amazing job. Also, I work in software and do some work our process improvement. You had many excellent examples of time saving, e.g., your 10 second sealer, the line. You have a lot to offer both in terms of mycology, as well as so-called (in the US) Lean production. Rock on!

    Thank you for all your great videos! Do you have any thoughts or concerns about heating the substrate in plastic? Do you see it as a practical/business necessity, and compared to the good the mushrooms bring, the risk is worth it and besides, the bags are approved by the food authorities for the purpose? Is that a real concern, or must be seen more in perspective about all life risks? I appreciate your general take on things, this topic included. Thanks again! I'd hate to let my own reservations stop me, which I guess they do for all of us to some extent. I mean the purist in me says log-grown, or glass, or maybe pottery......but then it is really hard to work it as a business.

    Hi. Can I do this one my own as 1 person? Will it work if I use my 3rd flush shiitake brick and I break it up into oak pellet bags? Can I do that without having to do sterilization etc like just pour boiling water onto the oak pellets, don't add any nutrition into a bag and add parts of the spent brick and close the bag and let it sit, will that be successful for me if I don't have a sterilizer and flow hood and I'm just 1 lady not a company? Thank you so much! I just want to keep my shiitake brick going because I love shiitake mushrooms they're so good and I want to have a lifetime supply every day. I like to make mushroom soup and eggs and cheese with shiitake, tomato and spinach.

    No reason why you couldn't other than it's wasteful of your liquid culture, and colonization would take longer than it does on the more nutritious grain. By using grain spawn to inoculate the substrate, you are doing two things: *1.* You're supplementing the substrate with extra nutrients provided by the grain and, *2.* you're inoculating with 1000x more mycelium than what a squirt of LC would provide. The intermediate step of making grain spawn is going to give you a much faster turnover, and by ensuring rapid colonization of the substrate, you'll reduce contamination risk.
