Supports a general research rule for infusions and finishing experiments: evaluate matrix compatibility and sensory balance, not yield alone. Small formulation studies; sensory acceptability is not a health endpoint. Preserve particle size, dose and base matrix.
Health and therapeutic claims are excluded. The retained evidence is a formulation case study involving small, product-specific trials.
In the cited Ganoderma beverage work, smaller particles increased extraction but produced a less acceptable bitter aftertaste, while the compatibility of the extract also depended on the alcoholic base. Extraction yield and sensory quality were therefore separate optimization targets.
