There's a bunch posted throughout the forum but you have to search a little. What type of help do you need?Where can I find some mushroom cultivation help info?
Did that include mixing any substrate, or is it simply dump, let it knit, and case?...
wait
dump out in a tray
wait
case

seems to be the only popcorn tek out there really...http://www.shroomery.org/9035/Popcorn-Tek-w-pics <-one of many popcorn teks.
Thanks, but I was hoping for canndo's since it seems faster. Any tek that requires me to soak 24 hours is a fuckup (mine) waiting to happen. I rarely can schedule like that.seems to be the only popcorn tek out there really...
Soaking isn't absolutely necessary, but I've found that the soak beforehand helps keep the kernels from exploding when you simmer.Thanks, but I was hoping for canndo's since it seems faster.

I want to be able to say: Hey, I've got a few hours, let's whip up some jars, and do it.
Oh no I agree. I meant that I was bummed/ disappointed that was the only Pcorn tek out there. I don't like how it just stops right before you fruit. It just tells you how to inoc.. your jars. I'm a newb at this too and almost need someone to walk me through and hold my hand through the stepsThanks, but I was hoping for canndo's since it seems faster.

And is gypsum helpful in the initial boil and load, or does it not matter?
Of course I read this an hour into the simmer/boil. 2 hours right? I tossed some coffee and gypsum into the hydration water by default. I'll do malt next time.Mix nothing - gypsum doesn't matter - if you want to have your growth be faster, put some malt extract in the water before you boil.
Done as described had to do with pushing your nail into it and it splitting. I have no nails. Do you have a chew test? Am I going for absolute max hydration, or can it be a bit chewey in the center?Time is not an issue, cook until they are done.
And now having seen it, yup, got it.you need only look to see that a few kernels have their skin burst - that is done.

If this turns out well (no reason not to, maybe I screw something up, I have more corn to try), I will move to it from rye for sure. I like the ease of roll as compared to rye, and it is easier to hydrate.
More important, my neighbor has a movie theatre popcorn maker in their kitchen. Gift from a friend. As a joke someone showed up with a 50lb sack of popcorn. That's gotta be a LOT cheaper than the organic rye I have access to.
