Ethyl alcohol contains additives to prevent underage kids from getting drunk off of medical supplies. Make sure whatever you are adding to your shrooms is safe. I know safety is put aside a lot of the time with drug cultures, but you need to be alive to experience all of the wonderful things in life.

A couple more things they told me, grind the mushrooms to a fine flower like powder in a electric coffee grinder then soak in the 95% alcohol or 99.95% methanol to make your slurry.  Psilocybin can take heat 150, 170 degrees no problem no loss of potency. If using heat method you can make a batch in 6 hours start to consumption.  Stay on top of it because it can get away from you, watch your alcohol evaporation  if cooking it stay around 150 cover and stir often for 2 hours then squeeze and run it again, repeat 2 times.

This is meant to help those that have issues from fungi consumption, this is the cure for sure!

I heard someone who used the above tek with a few modifications that worked great. They had no stomach upset, runs or any negative effects. The changes were as follows, they used moonshine that had been rerun 3 times to 95% alcohol. Lots of teks on %u201Cyou tube%u201D on how to make Moonshine out of water, sugar and yeast. Next was after 48 hours and two flushes of the slurry they used a cannabis oil evaporation tek on a pancake griddle and double boiler @ 100 degrees until the alcohol was just about gone then air dry. (I need to add this, at each 24 hour mark they heated the slurry in a double broiler to say 150 degrees then shake and poured into two unbleached coffee filters and squeezed out all the alcohol by twisting the filter while hot %u201Cimportant%u201D do when hot and fast as the crystals form very quickly and you don%u2019t want to filter them out). Then scraped that with a razor blade and it formed a caramel like substance that they rolled of the blade with their finger tips into a cylinder shape that fit into a %u201C00%u201D capsule for consumption. They stored this capsule in the freezer in a mason jar until they were ready to consume. So they figured that they had captured the psilocybin and the p-cubensis oil.

Dose:

Now they figured that if they used 5 grams of shrooms to make the extract that they would eat what came from it, was about .8 grams (800mg) of concentrate. They reported a level 5 high, if you have been doing shrooms within the last two weeks you would get a level 3.5 high due to tolerance issue on 5 grams that is. So if you do 10 grams of slurry you would split the end result in 1/2 by weight to dose for example. All reports were awesome and this works as good if not better than eating fungi straight! The next day they felt great with no adverse side affects, this in their opinion was the best way to do shrooms, better than tea as well because you get no fungi solids other than a minuscule amount of shroom oil that had no affect on their stomach. The people that told me this said that they loved doing shrooms often but was killing them with vomiting and diarrhea and feeling like crap for the next  few days and they were determined to find a way not to have to eat the shrooms, and they did!. Pure psilocybin is very clean even with these crude methods. 

Note:

They said This caramel like substance was very tough stuff as in would not breakdown very easy and due to that there was a time release affect (take with OJ) that took an hour or so to peak and the high lasted six hours until they hit the benzo%u2019s. This was off 800mg%u2019s wow!. I have a couple of links that gives you an idea of how some of the things they  mentioned were done.The people on the links are a little different but take it for the information, it works.

Not sure if this was the technique used or not, however several years back while living in Albuquerque I encountered caps with what looked like pot resin. I was at a rave and traded with an acquaintance. As for the experience....mind numbing?...I would be doing business with someone at say a bar, when I looked up to meet the strangers face, I suddenly found myself in a bathroom with another stranger, offering me a fat chunky line of something green...My point is beware if you cross paths with these little wonders. Although one of the most memorable nights in my life...proceed with caution.

I hope this hasn't been already mentioned. Having a larger surface area of the ethanol so more air comes into contact with it at once will speed up evaporation. Bowls, casserole dishes or wide cups are good for this, even better if a fan is used with them.

Has anyone tried completely evaporating the alcohol to get psilocybin crystal/powder? It might not be entirely pure since there may be other inactive compounds that are soluble in alcohol along with it, but it would be easier to estimate dosage than a solution made with shrooms of unmeasured potency.

Must agree with deadford here guys, as a chemist liquid extraction into a mixed system 9:1 or even 8:1 ethanol to water will provide minimal psilocybin losses as its solubility will be much higher in the less polar ethanol.

Do not use "absolute alcohol" from the lab (i.e. anhydrous or 200 proof) as it does contain, as said by deadford, additives usually benzene as a drying agent as distillation alone will always leave ethanol content at 95% due to its azeotrope formation with water, also as said once opened unless filled with silca beads as a dessicant then it will steal water from the air (hygroscopic).

In other words, "drinking" ethanol as solvent good, lab ethanol bad.

If you want even better extraction with lab chemicals diethyl ether would be much more effective and easy to remove for crystalisation.

Hope this helps =]

Ever heard of the drink Stroh? They sell it legally here in Belgium. It contains 80% alcohol. Never (dared to) drank it, but you could use it in this case.

If you can't get pure enough drinking alcohol (highest you can get here without a permit is 60%) the easyest thing to do is use white spirit. Obviously you can't drink it (not that I'd want to drink 190 proof alcohol either) so I figure you'd be better off evaporating all of it in a pan (simmering over a very low electric heat) then scraping off the muck left over and putting it in some caps. I have'nt tried this with mushrooms yet but it does seem to work with cacti and morning glory seeds so once I've tested this I may upload a short tek.

What ever source you use, keep in mind that if it's a legal 'grey area' plant/fungi in your area then this kind of activity will almost certainly be illegal.

you trying to kill us???
Posted by deadford (05/25/10 10:35 PM)
FYI: 95% (190 proof) alcohol is the highest concentration you can get by distillation alone. 100% (200 proof) alcohol does not exist without using harsh chemical processes that contaminate it rendering it poisonous. When it is available, usually only in laboratories, it is denatured with benzene or similar poisons so no one will drink it. Furthermore, as soon as you open a bottle of 200 proof alcohol, it very quickly starts pulling moisture out of the air reducing the concentration back to 95%. Everclear or similar grain alcohol is 190 proof, safe to drink (relatively anyway), and has nearly the same chemical properties as 200 proof. It is legal to sell outside of laboratories and can be obtained from liquor stores in most states.

Trip safe.

what the dosage of the concentrate? how does one calculate the dosage rate of this concentrate so as not to over shoot the moon and hit pluto?
Posted by armyabe (01/04/08 11:55 AM)
my question is when getting the liesense to purchase. for say "extracting " what do you tell them your extracting? At my liquer store they sell two kinds if you say it is for sterization they give you denatured alcohol which is poison verses saying extraction and recieving everclear. great post i will try this soon. seems great you could inject it into anything. tyhanks for the idea.
Posted by jackparsons42099 (08/01/07 03:06 AM)
i never tried it, and i wouldnt wanna waste any, but since the Psilocybin/Psilocin from the shrooms can be extracted with with 200 proof anhydrous ethyl would u still be able to trip (or get any effect) if u say drank the ethyl mix instead of evaporting the alcohol to get just the Psilocybin/Psilocin?

Seems harsh ratings for this document. Anyways why don't someone test this and comment instead of just giving bad ratings.

I'll try it post haste.
