RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

→ 100 parts hardwood sawdust

→ 10 parts Wheat Bran

→ 1 part gypsum (calcium sulphate)

METHOD

→ Water until moist and well soaked through. 

→ Drain or squeeze out excess water. The substrate should be damp but not wet. 

→ Pack into autoclavable bags and sterilized from 1-4 hours at 15 psi depending on the volume of the substrate. Larger volumes need a longer sterilization time to heat the core enough for complete sterilization.
