I've had a strange development with some horses hoof fungus I liberated at the weekend. The amaduo later was very thick, so instead of the traditional way of 'peeling' it. I cut off the bottom spore part, and sliced layers of the amaduo off.
Now half was put on the window ledge to dry, the rest in a plastic bag with the intention of boiling (I forgot to do that).
The stuff that had dried by the window didn't smoulder or burn when scraped and fluffed.
However, the stuff in the bag had sweated and was covered in a white residue. I dried this on the window, and have just scraped and fluffed it up.
Wow. Took a spark from a ferro rod first time and smouldered into a great ember. The smell was wonderful.
Has anyone else tried processing it this way. It seems a far easier and cheaper way than boiling for 24 hours.
