Measuring Cordyceps powder - scale issue?

Bit of a rookie/noob question here so go easy on me.

But I’m not sure if I trust my scales, as you can see they say this is 240mg of ND 10:1 Cordyceps powder.

That looks like an awful lot to me for it to be 240mg. In comparison the top picture is 300mg of salt. I understand different densities and compactness etc but it still looks like a lot.

Am I right I thinking these scales are off and that is too much powder? I know it’s hard to tell from a picture, I’ve put the teaspoon and pen in to try provide some sort of scale and give a ball park idea of the amount of powder on the scale.

What they were answering

Cheers for the response. Yeah I don’t really know why I put the salt comparison in there haha they’re two completely different substances that can’t really be used for a comparison.
I’m just going to test and calibrate this scale to see if I can trust it’s readings, if I can trust it then I’m all good.

You should always have a calibration weight to test your scale. The scale we sell comes with one in the box. That's the only way to reliably know if your scale is performing in spec.

Any other new mushroom extracts coming?

Yes, we have a lot in the works. This includes improved/different versions of the mushrooms we already carry, like cordyceps, and some new species of mushrooms that nobody is really talking about. 2023 will be a very goo

LOL, they fucking baked the lion's mane into muffins... I assume that was at like 350 degrees for 30-60min? They did no testing of the finished muffins to see if they degraded the actives? We've been doing a lot of scien

Cordyceps 10:1 vs 1:1

Replying to Chaloobies · u/MisterYouAreSoDumb u/Pretty-Chill u/NootropicsDepotGuru

1:1 is a whole cordyceps fruiting body powder that has been put through a hot water "extraction" to break down the chitin, but not lose any mushroom material. The 10:1 is a traditional solvent extraction, where 10 grams

My cordyceps congealed! Any way to rescue it? I haven’t gotten any water in it, I changed out the desiccant packets, but now it’s become a gooey lump. My Red Reishi purchased in the same order is still a powder, stored in the same conditions. What’s going on?

Holy crap! Water got in there somehow. Where was it stored?
