  • Mycelium insulation panels

    First experiments

    This mycelium panel was made out of wheat husks and Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum) as biological binding agent, grown for three weeks at 25ºC and 85% of relative humidity.

  • Mycoinsulation project

    Development of mycelium-based panels for the insulation of a protected wooden barn of Amsterdam.

    •The mycelium has to be grown on agricultural waste or forestry by-products. •The new material should be cost-efficient and not petrochemical dependent. •It should meet the thermal and noise...

  • Psilocybe cubensis

    The magic mushroom

    Psilocybe cubensis is a species of psychedelic mushroom whose principal active compounds are psilocybin and psilocin . Commonly called shrooms, magic mushrooms, golden tops, cubes, or gold caps, it...

  • Mycelium panel properties

    Fire resistance test

    An essential characteristic for a insulating panel should be fire resistance, so we tested our samples to check how good they are against fire.

  • Material and preparations

    11. November 2014

    We ordered a equipment starter-set "biergist BREWFERM LAGER 12 gram, Premium Quality Aromatic MD™ / Amber 50 ebc 1 kilo" at www.brouwmarkt.nl. Until now, Antoni, Daniel, Koen and Wim are contributing.
