I actually prefer organic honey, which works great for me (but I learned I shouldn´t pressurize it for more than 20 minutes otherwise it can caramelize). The final solution of water + honey is much clearer and easier to see through than dextrose + malt, and thats why I prefer honey...
 
I've had good luck with light corn syrup for LCs... the important thing is to test it out on a small batch of cakes before committing it to many jars of grain.

I use 1 tsp of syrup to about 12oz of water.

You really can't beat it unless you move to agar work.
 
i have tried LC with non-organic honey, raw sucrose, and refined sucrose.

all three worked fine.


i am sure corn syrup, organic honey, and malt+dextrose would all work just as fine.

Interesting, for me it was exactly the other way around. Plus my myelium grew a lot faster in malt+dextros. Perhaps I PCed the honey too long.
