@@j.l.thurman2725 Every time I try to use coffee un sterilised, I get mad contamination, Trichea is common but sometimes some of that white bacteria that's all over humans too. I always sterilise my grain, substrates of straw + coffee and agar media, I just sterilise the lot, every time I've experimented with pasteurising, utilising a still air box sterilised and left for air to settle, I've gotton contams that grow out of control and stunt the mycellium, sometimes cutting off whole areas of substrate. Even when I do the mixing in open air, I always get contams that way.
Some clarifications please. You say that coffee grounds have already been pasteurized. But from what I gathered from other videos, they say this only applies to newly (no older than 24hours) used coffee grounds. If this is the case, can old coffee grounds still be used by pasteurizing them again?
Hi Eric & Adam do you think that instead straw that I can use grass weed what is plentiful here on the beach, to be honest it’s posedenia oceanica, a very kind off flaky material what withhold a very good water content.
Super! I'm living in Vietnam but am from Canada. I have been gifted boxes of these at home to grow on the kitchen counter. Super awesome! What I am wanting to do is show a young struggling family here during covid, how to make some extra money by making these as they have a tiny coffee shop. I thought what a great idea. As it's very difficult times for the average vietnamese person right now. Question ❓ where would I get the straw from? Or is any straw good? They have really strange mounds all over the country side whee they produce mushrooms for markets but I thought this guy could do it for gifting like in the west. Cheers great video 🙏
Thanks. I will do this. I live in a city and it seems the easiest and best! Im cooking up a pound of coffee. I also like that you put it back into the same bag!!
I really want to thank you for sharing your knowledge. I am here in the Philippines and this video is amazing. what they teach us here is different. I would love to try growing mushrooms using this technique. Thank you very much 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 I appreciate what you are doing !💯👌🏿🙏🏿☝🏿
if the coffe is moist for too long you can get get some unwanted mold! you can dry and store it until it's time to use it, and then pasteurize it again
Thanks for this video Adam! Very helpful. I'm a total fresher at this, so I have a few questions. Is water to be added to the substrate? How much? Should the bags be pierced for the fruition process? or the mushrooms just tear the bags and grow out? What kind of environment/temperature needs to be maintained throughout the process? Can button mushrooms be grown using coffee grounds?
Dear Nieha .....so it's been a whole yr now.....have you pressed forward with growing mushrooms??? Anything you'd share would be a blessing.....I don't know if it's actually worth it....seems like waaaay to much work....the thing that gets me is all the grow labs I see on these videos..... always makes me think my house isn't even that much of a controlled environment....how the heck am I gonna do that for mushrooms???
Great content, thank you. I’d like to know more about how you go about reaching field capacity of the grounds and straw. Meaning, how to do go about hydrating the straw to 75% and coffee to 50% before bagging?
I'm wondering too, but assuming the straw has been pasteurized (they have a video) at least, or sterilized (which they wouldn't recommend for Oysters). So I think the straw is pasteurized in this case, but they didn't state it in the video.
Hi I really like the video and the idea of using spent coffee grounds. So far I'm using them only in my vermicomposter with great success. The issue I have with them is although they are sterilized in process of making coffee, they tend to catch mold very quickly. How do you address this issue? Are there any storing methods to help this?
Yes, this is what I also noticed. I think it is not practical from the coffee grounds that come out of a single machine. He mentioned that they use the coffee ground within 24 hours. So, my guess is that they procure coffee grounds from large number of coffee shops and use it within 24 hours. Storing grounds won't help in this case.
We own a coffee roaster so I’ve been wanting to do this for a while now. Would it help to grind the coffee more course? I also was wondering if mixing in the coffee chaff would work the same as straw or sawdust. Which mushrooms work best or do only oyster mushrooms work?
Great video. A few questions. What kind of bags? How do you seal them? Where do you store them? How long does it take? Where do get 'spawn'? Thank you!
We make these column bags ourselves from layflat plastic tubing and seal them with zip zies.

I have been studying for a year and how to grow mushrooms I think the best thing to do is get a closet Martha I believe closet I tried both on my own time it gets contaminated lots of alcohol and a warm old-fashioned steam also I do believe that you do need it’s a monitor and a humidifier gauge if you use a bucket you need to put a holes in them with filters you need to use sterile water. They did great this time except for the last phase the fruiting phrase you have to be extremely careful not to use any kind of water that has bacteria in it. Also you have to make sure that you have the proper light the proper heat in the proper humility is very difficult to grow mushrooms but I swear it’s worth it.

Love the experiments/experience here. One question? Have you ever tried to inoculate a coffee/straw substrate bag with a spore syringe? Skipping the grain spawn all together.
Thank you for this demonstration! I'm trying to practise at home currently and have a quick question. Do you pierce the bags during incubation phase, or only fruiting phase when the mycelium has taken over the substrate?
its rare that Ive been impressed however watching this certainly would make anyone say wow I need to ask - have you checked out the site called gregs mushroom grower just google for it
@@GroCycleTV yes I have seen and read about using coffee grounds to grow mushrooms 🍄 and Mushrooms 🍄 can me grown on any farm substrates I have watched a video of you talking about that all we need to do is look and following you was the best 👌 idea 💡 from 🇨🇦 #YSW I follow you 💯 from Domenico Monteleone
I know this is a dumb question, but after filling the bag do you poke holes in it? If so, how big for the bag size that the gentleman with gloves filled? I thank you in advance for your advice.
Excited to get my mushroom farm rolling. When storing coffee grounds in preparation for making the substrate, should the coffee be dried out to prevent mold or will it be safe just stored in a jar in fridge?
They recommend using fresh coffee grinds (ideally from an espresso machine) within 24 hours after they've been used. The heat from the steam running through the coffee puck, pasteurizes the C grounds.
I would say your technique using coffee ground is awesome.. Have a question - While closing the incubated plastic bag , do you let air inside the bag before securing it or do you puncture them for natural air to pass through for mycelium to grow and formation of mushroom pins? 2) 20 % mixture of straw is definitely a great idea , can we use any other form of substrate? Have you experimented on any other type of straw or similar stuff 3) Can you send me a link of your app or something..love to follow you guys..
1) the bag at the end has a 2 to 5 micron filter patch. This is where fresh air exchange takes place. The long bag that are hanging would need to have some small one-inch x’s cut into it for air exchange and for a place to pin. 2) oyster mushroom are aggressive eaters. You could mix in pasteurized peanut shells, Aspen chips, cardboard, that doesn’t have a glossy surface or colored ink, and other carbon rich materials.
Thanks for sharing this! I was wondering if I could mix wood shavings from my workshop with the coffee grounds and how I would go about pasteurising them
I'm trying to start out growing my own mushrooms for food....

I've been spending time with the help of my son researching into growing mushrooms at home then we discovered an awesome website at gregs mushroom grower (check it out on google)
here's several things worth trying pick the best type - there are lots available. grow them in the right environment - some eg oyster muchrooms like cool humid conditions and can be put outdoors (I read these and why they work on Gregs Mushroom Grower website )
I've started growing mushrooms, and I know the owners of several local shops. I'd love to get my hands on the spent grounds and mix it with sawdust and a rye grain spawn.
Coffee shops..... Just ask coffee shops for them. They are usually happy to give them to people for free. Starbucks coffee shops in my area usually has big bags of used grounds that they put out for people to take for free. Just ask them for them if you don't see any. They're usually very happy to help. OR... You could just save your grounds whenever you make a pot of coffee, just put them in a container and place them in your freezer until you have enough grounds saved up. Then you can put them all in a large pot, add some water, and boil it. This will kill off any mold or other harmful pathogens you don't want in your grounds. I hope this helps you.
Heather Donigan One thing Heather like they said it’s better if you mix straw with coffee grounds but never throw coffee grounds because they’re good for roses and all kinds of different plants. Including the enlightened ones meaning Magic mushrooms. And don’t forget if you do and just them they turn from 37 says Celeban do your homework and it’s not something that shows up in a drug test. If you’re interested look at John Hopkins study and they’re calling it a miracle and that would be the scientists. Good luck to you all I will spread this as far as I can it’s worth 20 years of meditation because it dissolves the ego. Love you I’m Johnny Appleseed I don’t want to spread it everywhere I’m still working on my part because I can’t I’ve done it twice and I can’t seem to do it but I actually know what I did wrong this time do you have to have at least 4 inches of dirt, sterile dirt in a bucket or get Martha’s fruiting chamber. Good luck to you guys love you all
@@Supergn0me 185* F, for an hour or more to pasteurize. 250* for 25 min, in a pressure cooker to sterilize, let it cool naturally before decompressing. good luck.
Great, but do you make holes in the bag or do they break through? Where do you get the bags? Do they need to be in the dark or is light fine? Can you provide where you get your supplies?
A question here and not on Google just because I love your vid and I believe that in my city all coffee shops just dump their grinds, this is a great way to reuse that matterial. When you put the mixture in the bag, do you make holes, or how does the mushroom get to grow on the outside wall? Edit: downloaded the ebook, let the comment stay just to tell you how awesome you guys are :D
Thank you for your video! I have a question that might be obvious, but I just want to know for sure: How do you cut your growbag to allow the fruiting bodies to grow out of them?
Yes - when you put the bags into the fruiting stage, put a hole or a slit into several places on the bag once the mycelium is white and nice and thick - the mushrooms will concentrate all of their growth at these holes/slits as they reach for the fresh air!
Hi, might not get a reply since its been many years. I've recently tried this with brown oysters (winter variant) took 44 days to fully colonise, but have been trying to pin for 20 days without luck (at temp of 10C). I have other medium (bags) in the same conditions which have fruited and harvested. Growing in 100% coffee, what type of oyster did you have success with?

How long can you use a bag of substrate?
My very first trying of growing mushroom was using coffee grounds and dry gress mix. it was just happened 3 weeks ago, and so far so good...
Ive never got mold at all growing with coffee grounds
But I do mix my grounds with sunflower seed hulls.

I've got 3 pounds used that I dried to store. pasteurising it now to use for my spawn. doing 4 indoor bags and the rest in the garden
You can probably go to a local coffee shop and get what they throw away

We’re going to try this for our customers of our CSA here in North Pole!
Hi Eric & Adam do you think that instead straw that I can use grass weed what is plentiful here on the beach, to be honest it’s posedenia oceanica, a very kind off flaky material what withhold a very good water content.
I like using a coffee/cardboard mix. All the benefits of straw and can be completely recycled.
just discovered this channel, amazing!!!
was the coffee grounds moist or do the mushroom spores not need the coffee to be moist? thanks

Wow! U gave me an idea, thanks
“Grounds for your garden” is a program Starbucks started back in 1995 I think. There are many great uses for coffee grounds.
Could I use coco coir instead of the straw?
Do the mushrooms eat through the plastic?
How much water should be added to the bag mix?
Really great method, thanks for sharing!
Amazing! Which tall bags do you use? They look ideal!
Where do you buy the Bags? Has to be Brand new and don't need to Sterilize these Bags?
Can I freeze coffee grounds for a few weeks and use that? Will it stay pasteurized?
if the coffe is moist for too long you can get get some unwanted mold! you can dry and store it until it's time to use it, and then pasteurize it again
I've picked some used grounds from gas stations, and Starbucks as well.

Yes - when you put the bags into the fruiting stage, put a hole or a slit into several places on the bag once the mycelium is white and nice and thick - the mushrooms will concentrate all of their growth at these holes/slits as they reach for the fresh air!
What kind of bags are they using?
Is it possible to do this is a self sustaining way or must I keep purchasing fresh spawn? Thanks.
Hi guys can you share size if your bags?How much they weigh with coffee spawns and straw? THANK YOU!!!
Hi, might not get a reply since its been many years. I've recently tried this with brown oysters (winter variant) took 44 days to fully colonise, but have been trying to pin for 20 days without luck (at temp of 10C). I have other medium (bags) in the same conditions which have fruited and harvested. Growing in 100% coffee, what type of oyster did you have success with?
Hi Adam and Ian. Thanks for the videos. For incubation, what is the recommended moisture content during that time? Is water added?
Field capacity. This means if you squeeze it gently it would just produce a drop or two. If you squeeze it hard it runs.
