Om Mushroom Coffee vs Spacegoods Rainbow Dust: The Two 120 mg Heavyweights
In one line
Om Mushroom vs Spacegoods: Spacegoods is the better label because it discloses 1,000 mg each of fruiting-body lion's mane, cordyceps and chaga, against Om's unsplit 2,000 mg of whole-mushroom powder. Om is the pick for US buyers who want organic certification, a printed beta-glucan number and a plain coffee taste at $1.33 a cup.

- You want USDA Organic; Spacegoods makes no organic claim

- You want ashwagandha (300 mg KSM-66) and maca in the same scoop
The short version
Most mushroom coffees are half-caf with a few hundred milligrams of mushroom. Om and Spacegoods are the exceptions: both deliver a full 120 mg of caffeine and gram-level mushroom content. The question is which gram you trust more, Om's 2,000 mg of whole-mushroom powder with a printed beta-glucan figure, or Spacegoods' 3,000 mg of fruiting-body extract printed per species.
Where each wins
Taste: both score 3.5. Om tastes like a plain instant coffee with an earthy note; Rainbow Dust is a flavoured drink, and the sweeter flavours divide reviewers. Price: compared in their own currencies, Om is $1.33 per cup and Spacegoods about £1.63 per serving. We do not convert, and Spacegoods showed no USD price on its US site. Caffeine: a tie at 120 mg for Om and the Spacegoods Coffee flavour. Disclosure: Spacegoods, for per-species doses and a fruiting-body statement on every mushroom. Om counters with the category's only mainstream beta-glucan number, 400 mg, and is honest that its powder includes mycelium. Testing: both claim third-party testing; neither publishes a batch certificate we found. Formats: both instant only. Diet fit: Om is USDA Organic and grows its own mushrooms; Spacegoods is not organic but is vegan, non-GMO and gluten-free.
Our pick
Spacegoods, because 1,000 mg of fruiting-body lion's mane per serving is a dose you can compare against the research, and no other coffee we track prints one. Om is the better choice for US buyers, organic shoppers and anyone who prefers coffee that tastes like coffee. See both in our best mushroom coffee ranking.
Om Mushroom Superfood
Om mushroom coffee is the only mainstream instant blend that prints a beta-glucan number (400 mg) on the label, and at 120 mg caffeine it drinks like a real cup for $1.33 a serving. The catch is that its 2,000 mg of lion's mane and cordyceps is whole-mushroom powder grown on substrate, not extract, with no per-species split.

Spacegoods
Spacegoods mushroom coffee (Rainbow Dust) is the UK's biggest and has the clearest label of any multi-mushroom coffee: 1,000 mg each of fruiting-body lion's mane, cordyceps and chaga, plus 300 mg KSM-66 ashwagandha. But it is a flavoured, sweet-leaning drink rather than a plain coffee, at about £1.63 a serving, and its lab-testing claim has no published COA.

Frequently asked questions
Is Spacegoods better than Om mushroom coffee?
For a known dose, yes. Rainbow Dust prints 1,000 mg each of lion's mane, cordyceps and chaga as fruiting-body extract. Om prints 2,000 mg of lion's mane and cordyceps combined, as whole-mushroom powder including mycelium, but adds a 400 mg beta-glucan figure. Om is organic and cheaper for US buyers.
Which has more caffeine, Om or Spacegoods?
They match at the top end. Om states 120 mg per 8 oz serving from Papua New Guinea arabica. Spacegoods lists 80–120 mg per 8 g serving depending on flavour, with the Coffee flavour at about 120 mg and the Chocolate and Vanilla Cinnamon versions nearer 80 mg. Both drink like a full cup.
Which is cheaper, Om or Spacegoods?
In their home currencies, Om's 30-serving canister is $39.99, or $1.33 per cup, and Spacegoods' 30-serving pouch is £49, or about £1.63 per serving. We do not convert between the two. Spacegoods did not display USD pricing on its US storefront when we checked, which matters for American buyers.
Which has more lion's mane, Om or Spacegoods?
Spacegoods, by disclosure. It states 1,000 mg of lion's mane fruiting-body extract per serving. Om's 2,000 mg is lion's mane and cordyceps together with no split, and it is whole-mushroom powder grown on substrate rather than extract, so the two figures are not measuring the same thing. Om's 400 mg beta-glucans is the only comparable number.
