at what temperature does psilocybin break down at?
    #1571786 - 05/23/03 09:47 AM (20 years, 9 months ago)

well... as the title says.... does anybody know? i just bought a food dehydrator with heat adjustment on it, the lowest is 95 degrees. would they chemical be ok at 95 with no loss of potency or should i just rip the heater out of it?

Rip the heater out.

Or just use a huge fan. :laugh:

Psilocin breaks down easily, most if not all does in the drying proscess, psilocybin will do so at a higher temperature or in the presence of oxidizers...there has not, to my knowledge been any studies to determine the temperature range...basicly, the higer the temperature the more it will decay...

Drying at 95F is perfectly fine...I wouldn't go above 120 when drying, I had dried and eaten and didnt notice any significant loss....

What about simply drying at room temperature? It would be slower, I know, but would there be less breakdown of the chemical?

of course-P#1 just explained that by the way. and edge-why not just disconnect the wire/wires going to the heating element? its not that hard, and why bother worry about it?

psilocybin's melting point: 220-228? C
(around 430*F)

heh the melting point is hardly necessary...Psilocybin will oxidize more rapidly due to higher temperatures...not combust, If he disconnects the wires from the heater in his food dehydrator is it still a food dehydrator. Why dont you try connecting a dimmer switch to an extention cord. and plugging your dehydrator into the cord. Then when your dehydrator is on its lowest setting you can make it go even lower by adjusting the flow of the electricity..

We might get glimpse's of objectivity every now, and then, but we're so inherently locked in our temporal and corporeal selves that we're irrevocably locked into subjectivity :crazy:

Leave your heater on... it won't hurt anything. I have used one of those cheap ass Ronco dehydrators and it works great.

i learned the disconnecting wires the hard way... i thought logically, but never DO IMPORTATNT THINGS WHEN YOUR'RE STONED... sorr y im stoned now. stoned logic is WRONG. i also read stuff up on doing it but that didnt matter then. i cut the wire connecting something to the fan, which stopped the heater too for some reason... so it was completely broken. i tried to twist em back together, and that didnt work, so i exchanged it for a new one saying it made a "clang clang:" noise... stupid me. so.. dont do anything thats kinda important like that when you're stoned. but thanks everybody for the help and suggestions and the info.

lol! Once when I was stoned I was cleaning up my dorm room and came acroos a guitar chord tangled up with an old set of headphones. The headphones were crap and broken, so instead of untangling the whole mess, I thought I'd just cut the headphones loose and throw them away. Little did I know that my cell phone charger was tangled up in the mess too and its chord looked exactly like the head phones chord, so I accidently cut through that too and fucked up my $30 cell phone charger. Moral of the story: don't go cutting any wires when you're high.
