When is the best time to find Shaggy Inkcap in Trier?
Mushroom season in Trier, Germany is running strong right now, with shaggy inkcap sitting at 73% today. The typical season runs July to November, and we’re in October now
Fruits after good rain when nights turn cool, typically following late summer and autumn downpours. A warm spell broken by steady rainfall brings them up within a day or two, often in flushes.
A tall white cap, at first cylindrical and shaggy with upturned scales, sitting like a fingertip over the slender white stem. The gills are white when young, then turn pink and finally dissolve from the rim upwards into a black inky liquid as the cap opens.
Often appears in the same open, disturbed ground as field mushrooms (Agaricus species) and, in lawns, parasols and various Panaeolus. Avoid confusing it with the toxic-with-alcohol common ink cap, Coprinopsis atramentaria, which favours similar nutrient-rich ground.
Pick only caps that are still white and cylindrical and closed against the stem, before any pink or black appears at the rim. They deliquesce into black ink within hours of picking, so cut them young and use them straight away.
Does not keep; it auto-digests into black liquid within a few hours even in the fridge, so cook on the day of picking. To hold a meal briefly, cook them down first and refrigerate or freeze the cooked mushrooms rather than the raw caps.
Most similar to the common ink cap, Coprinopsis atramentaria, which is greyer and smoother without the shaggy scales. That species causes severe illness if eaten with alcohol, so the key difference is the tall shaggy white cap of Coprinus comatus versus the smooth grey, bell-shaped cap of the common ink cap.
