Russula ochroleuca - hot or not

[thelawnet]

Just found what I think to be ochoroleuca, the taste was very mild and coconutty. The habitat was grass near mixed birch and pine, I didn't pay too much attention to the immediate vicinity, which I guess makes claroflava possible also.

Any tips for distinguishing them?

Claroflava will turn grey/black where you have damaged the cap or the gills.

spore print is yellow really, I suppose you could call it cream.

I thought the easiest way of distinguishing between the two was as you say, the taste test. R. ochroleuca is mild and quite bland whereas you will almost certainly know if you've got R. claroflava in your gob
