remember to wash your dehydrator out before that next batch of beef jerky or you will go to the moon

great thread...very interested

one of the best things on earth IMO
If anyone gets into this, I can explain how you very easily would never have to buy another spore syringe again, and have and endless supply of mushrooms after just the initial investment.

Papi Chingon @Papi Chingon Master Shroomery,

Need your wisdom

Have you ever brewed shroom tea? If so, what is the most proper/ efficient/ way?

Crumble the shrooms into dust, boil water, remove from heat, add shrooms, place back on heat and stir for 30 seconds, reduce heat to low and cok for 10-15 minutes stirring every minute or so (to keep from scorching), add teabags in last few minutes, strain (or don't) and walla. I cool mine with ice and I squeeze a half lemon into it before drinking (per dose). You can also make a larger batch, then put it into an airtight container and freeze. It doesn't last long in the fridge before degrading, and fresh is the best potency.

tea is OK, but frozen juice is better. Heat + Water oxidizes the psilocybin and reduces the potency.
I respectfully disagree. We are talking about a very short cooking time. The tea hits you faster and harder, but the total trip time is reduced by about an hour. Once you ingest it is hitting you in 15 minutes and it comes on strong. It is also excellent for those with weak stomachs who tend to throw up or get queezy on shrooms.

it's just that, unlike tea, the active ingredient in mushrooms isn't in an oil that needs to be heated to release it from the biomass. The psilocybin just needs to be exchanged from the mushroom by the circulation of water. But water + heat increases the oxidization rate of the psilocybin. Ideally, you extract with alcohol and acid and evaporate to crystals or powder, and then just mix it in with whatever is easy on your stomach. Tea is great, especially with some chamomile or peppermint, takes the edge off the nausea.

But I stand by fruit juice. it comes quicker, and it's not as Up-Down as eating, or even tea. The acidity of the juice is what works the magic, and it can help your tea to throw a squeeze of lemon or some citrus zest in with the mushrooms. Fruit Juice is everything you like about tea, but more of it.

:)

Make mushroom-water, then add it to tea or juice or pickle juice or whatever.

This is interesting. How long do you soak and stir the mushrooms in the water? The tea method is fast and easy and always stronger than consuming mushrooms by themselves. I have done just orange juice with the shrooms several times, but that was just to get them down fast with minimal flavor (I hate the taste). The tea alone hits harder than this even without lemon tec, at least in my experience.

There was a guy who went by Willie myco on youtube before his account was banned. He had an instructional on putting the shrooms in high octane alcohol and then swirling it every once in a while. He would let the alcohol evaporate until it was at his desired volume, then he would place that into small bottles with droppers. Based on how many doses he started with, then the final volume, he was able to determine dosage. He got it down to a cc or two per dose, so the 1ml dropper would be a dose. If that video was still available I'd link it. I never tried the technique myself because my state doesn't sell the high octane alcohol. I'm pretty sure he was using everclear. He said there was a certain vodka that would work as well that was 170+. 80 proof doesn't cut it, amd that's all my state sells. He said bacardi 151 won't work, but I don't remember the reason.

I'm in that wonderful part of the world where nutritious, poisonous, and psychedelic mushrooms all grow in my yard.
But a few are hard to differentiate. Sometimes I'll have up to 20 different species in my yard.

Mushroom identification scares me.

I've worked with oodles of chemical engineers, when I was working graveyards in a Si factory. Next time you meet a chemical engineer,ask them "Drugs or Bombs?"

They will all answer with one of those two options, without further explanation. One of the people I knew in the factory explained to me how you distill using alcohol, then you add acid, and it will crystallize. That's how you get potent doses that will keep their potency for a long time.

But you basically do the same thing as tea, you just don't add a bunch of heat. Mushrooms are basically sponges, so you just chop it up, wrap it in some cheese cloth, soak and squeeze.

I would love to do this however I have never even tried shrooms. I'm interested in micro dosing and seeing if they can cure anxiety. I wish I knew someone who would sell me a couple before I go through all the trouble of making my own.

I also rent so that's probably not smart

I agree 100%...I need to locate some...It does help reset ego and give perspective IMO...heard good things about microdosing

They are pushing for legalization or something in Oregon where I live...I am gonna collect signatures for it

Our local expert who made that thread just says to use them to get messed up, but I suspect they have many more uses for mental health and quality of life

It's probably the wrong time of the year but I go out mushroom hunting every chance I get. Don't know what I'm looking for but it gets me outside and exercising. If I found anything that resembles magic I take them home for a spore print.

I like wondering thoughthrou woods off the beaten path, but from what I've read it's best to look around in the city.

Each time I take mushrooms they are a learning experience. You either view personal problems in a different way, certain behaviors, relationships etc... and you come out with either a solution or different perspective. This is a benefit. Having said that, I take them for fun, aND the benefit is just a huge bonus.

I fully agree...I gain perspective from their magical powers

I'm not a fan of calling people out on bullshit, but this is total and complete bullshit.

Bullshit alert!

Don't get caught up in this.
