This is just the paranoia in me speaking, rather than a criticism!
I like to stick links to
government websites in between a set of CODE tags if the software supports such (as this one does), so that other 'noids don't end up accidentally accessing a government website without meaning to, and having as their "came from" data be a cannabis-related website. Like so:
Code:
https://pubag.nal.usda.gov/download/24757/PDF
Again, this is not criticism, as such.
Aside from that, lol, thank you for the link and information. Yes, there are many different varieties of yeast. I've gotten the impression that some are better than others for fermentation purposes. But home-brewers don't seem to reach for any random variety, though. I
assume that there is probably one - or a very small number of - "best choice(s)" for cannabis fermentation and that, eventually, the variety or varieties might be figured out if enough experimentation is done.
I don't know how well (if at all) it relates to cannabis, but I found this article to be interesting:

IF I remember correctly, mold and yeast are both fungi, and the difference is: If it grows in multicellular filaments, it's a mold; and if it grows (or
can grow) as single cells, it's a yeast. Which, if true, is kind of funny. We try to avoid the one but, apparently hope for the other, lol.

You know...
Healthy people regularly encounter - and often consume - substances that could be harmful, even fatal to those with (for example) depressed/damaged immune systems. My lungs and bad tooth are probably like "ready to use" petri dishes (agar included). And cannabis is used by people with cancer and HIV/Aids.
In your reading, did you see any comments
from people who have such issues, who've become "cob converts" without any negative effects from consuming them?
For those who are concerned, can anyone think of a good sterilization method for the finished product that won't be likely to damage either the cannabinoids or the terpenes?
