My First Bioreactor for Fungi

Hello there, just wanna share this (rudimentary) bubble column biorector design. I found some Beauveria bassiana while picking coffee cherries, so I figured that it could be effective against some local infestations.

What I'm afraid of doing is optimization lol, I started with some home-made colloidal chitin, starch and soy flour, which gave me pretty good yields at flask level. If any of you have tried other ingredients for the medium, I would appreciate if you can share your experience.

Unrelated: there are some freshly inoculated mushroom bags in the back hshshs, I had to colonize the lab table or I lose my space.
