Whats Your Drying Method?
    #11071330 -

Hey everyone. Im trying to decide if i should dry my little guys out or not. I have been looking at drying methods and Im trying to come to a conclusion as to which one to use. I wanted to know if you guys could post some pics and info on how you dry out your mushys. Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I have no pics, but I just fan dry for about 48 hours then finish the drying process in a chamber/container with some Damprid. I have a small bucket of Damprid (bought at my local grocery store) and place a screen on top of the bucket and the fan dried mushies are cracker dry in another 48 hours or so. Works like a charm IME.

Just lay them out on a paper towel for about a day and then move it to some newspaper for another day. Orrr you could take your mushies freshh:smirk:. I usually take them fresh, just cut them up and put them in some yogurt or something that is tasty. I heard somewhere that they are actually more potent fresh or something. Confirm or deny?

This is what i do pretty much, you wont need a dehydrater unless you got bare munchrooms.

Yeah their deff more potent when their wet. I usually eat them wet, but alot of people are complaining because they want to save them, and you really cant keep them for more than a week tops. I was going to use hardness plus from Leslies Pool Supplies as a desicant. The chemical name is "calcium chloride anhydrous". Confirm or deny if thats a good chemical to use.

I like to set mine out for a day in front of a fan like the others have said.  Then I use kitty litter in a 5 gal bucket to dry them the rest of the way.  Get the kitty litter that is made out of silica gel.  I use tidy cats crystals.  The advantage of this is that you can bake it on low for an hour or even microwave it when you are done, and its good as new.  You save some money over damp rid because you cant reuse damp rid.
