I can't wait until it becomes common knowledge that NO...heat does not destroy psilocybin or psilocin.  At least not any amount of heat that a normal person would be applying to it in anyway.  Where's my proof?  Right here:

http://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms_chemistry.shtml

According to that handy little chart, psilocybin's melting point is 185 degrees celcius at the minimum, and psilocin's is 173.  That's 365 and 343 degrees fahrenheit, respectively.  Unless you put them in your oven at that temperature, they will not deteriorate due to heat.  Perhaps due to exposure to oxygen or light, but not heat.  Why do you think tea works?  If they broke down because of heat, tea would not be a viable method of consumption in anyway.  Hope this answered your question.

How much heat? Dehydrator? Or oven?

Also, scroll to the bottom of the page, the search engine has something for you. :wink:

Once again, the search engine has changed opinions, and now offers less-useful links. What's that about?

Most people think heat destroys psilocybin, but those people have never put active mushrooms on a pizza.

It would be interesting to cook mushrooms for a day or 2 in a crock pot and see if it changes the experience at all.

My guess is that psilocybin is quite stable, but heat may affect the psilocin and other alkaloids.

Well from my experience with a heated dehydrator it did effect them.  I dosed 5g's and barely got a 2g effect.  When I didn't use the dehydrator with the same mushrooms from the same cakes, my trips were much much harder.  Just my 2 cents.

I would honestly just use the fan, it works and there is 0% chance they can be harmed even if the heat CAN do something.

I know for a fact that boiling alcohol isn't too hot. A dehydrator at 110 or 120F is just fine, I promise.

i like to butterfly a few 3-4 inch fat mushrooms-just cut'em vertically
without seperating the two halves, and simmer in a little butter, not
much, for like 2 or 3 mins on each side. let them brown a bit then toss
them on a plate to cool. IME this delivers the quality of fresh
mushrooms while applying a fantastic taste for mushroom lovers of any
kind.

Heated dehydrator is worse for em than hot water. You blow a steady stream of heated oxygen across it, you're gonna oxidize it a lot more than heating it in solution. I also think it's more stable in solution w/ cranberry juice and or tea than it is in hot water alone.

I can't prove it. But this is what I believe from experience.
