3lb Hydrated Grain Bag

$22.00

This grain bag uses red winter wheat fortified with gypsum (CaSO4*2H2O) and calcium carbonate (CaCO3), hydrated to 52% via NSNS process control. Sterilization runs at 118.3°C @ 15 PSI for an elevation-adjusted 172-minute cycle, validated to F₀ ≥ 120 at 4,984 ft. Each bag carries a Batch ID and Digital Birth Certificate reference for traceability.

Digital Birth Certificate

Every unit ships with a Manifest Card carrying a QR code. Scan the QR code or navigate directly to /batch/[BATCH-ID] to access the thermal integration log, F₀ lethality value, sterilization parameters, and the name of the operator who signed off on your batch. This data is immutable once published.

Batch Evidence Access

Use your shipped Batch ID to open the exact certificate at /batch/[BATCH-ID]. Public ledger entries are available below.

Example certificate shortcut links are coming soon after the first approved public reference set is finalized.

Altitude Compensation — 4,984 ft

Our sterilization parameters are explicitly compensated for our operating altitude. At 4,984 ft, 15 PSI autoclave pressure yields 118.3°C — not 121°C. We run a product-specific hold window validated to F₀ ≥ 120. Sea-level timing assumptions applied at elevation produce inadequate lethality.

Grain hydration and mineral buffering are validated per batch before release to reduce variability during colonization.

Species Compatibility

Best For

OysterLion's ManeShiitakeKing OysterReishiChestnut

Hydrated grain bags serve as a universal transfer vector for most cultivated species. The NSNS process keeps grain intact for optimal mycelium attachment, and the pre-installed injection port allows direct syringe or liquid culture inoculation without a flow hood. Red winter wheat provides a nutritional profile that supports fast, even colonization across a wide range of species. Use in combination with Masters Mix substrate for a complete two-stage workflow.
