    Hand-mixing substrate stops making sense once you are running more than a few bags a day. The Blue Myco 400L Ribbon Mixer combines hardwood, bran or other supplements and water in a single steel trough, so each batch comes out with the same recipe and the same moisture from one end to the other. A full-length watering bar hydrates the batch while it turns, and the front discharge drops finished substrate straight into a bin or cart for bagging.

    Built for production substrate

    Even batches

    Helical ribbon blades roll the material from end to end, so supplement and water reach the whole load instead of collecting in pockets.

    Water where it is needed

    The included watering bar runs the length of the trough and connects to a standard garden hose. Add an inline water meter to put the same amount into every batch.

    Faster unloading

    A front discharge lets you empty the trough without reaching in, and the safety grate stays closed while the blades are moving.

    How it fits your workflow

    1Load

    Add your base material and supplements through the grate-covered top.

    2Mix and hydrate

    Run the ribbon and open the watering bar until the batch reaches your target moisture.

    3Discharge

    Open the front discharge into a bin or cart.

    4Bag and sterilize

    Fill filter patch grow bags and run them through your sterilizer or autoclave.

    Before it arrives: the mixer needs a 220 VAC single-phase supply on a 20 A circuit, so have a licensed electrician confirm your circuit and receptacle. Plan floor space for the full 50 x 72 in footprint plus clearance at the front for discharge. At 600 lb it ships by freight, so have a way to unload and move it.

    Common questions

    How many pounds of substrate does one batch hold?

    The 400 L rating is total trough volume, not a weight. How many pounds you can mix depends on the density of your ingredients, your moisture target and how full you load it. Contact us with your recipe and we can help you estimate a working batch size.

    What substrates can it mix?

    It is designed for mushroom substrate prep, including supplemented hardwood recipes such as Masters Mix. If you plan to run something unusual, ask us before you order.

    Is the watering bar included?

    Yes. The watering bar comes with the mixer and connects to a standard garden hose.

    What power does it need?

    220 VAC single phase, with a 20 A circuit recommended. Have a licensed electrician confirm your circuit and receptacle before installation.

    What is the warranty?

    Blue Myco covers the mixer with a three-year warranty.
