The base material for the production of mushrooms is a special substrate made from fresh organic resources in a manufacturing process lasting five weeks. During this process, the base materials are first blended and watered to activate primary decomposition processes. By means of pasteurisation, the microbiologically broken-down and homogenised substrate is disinfected to kill off all extraneous agents. Now, under sterile conditions, the mushroom spawn (wheat grains with mushroom mycelium growing on them) is added, which permeates the sterilised substrate within approx. 15 days.

White Mushrooms

White mushrooms are delicately perfumed and have a pleasant, very slightly nutty aroma. A typical exponent is medium-sized with a closed cap of approx. three to six centimetres in diameter.

However, there is also the smaller miniature mushroom (1.5 cm to 4.5 cm), or the giant mushroom, whose cap can reach a size of five to twelve centimetres.

Brown Mushrooms

Brown mushrooms are really different from the white kinds only in their more intense aroma. They also contain a little less water. In shape and size, though, they are similar to their white brethren.

The Portobello is the largest kind among them. Just as with the white giant mushroom, its cap can reach a size of up to twelve centimetres.
