Mushroom Pill TEK (Must read!)
    #11687213 - 12/20/09 03:59 PM (14 years, 4 months ago)

A friend of mine came up with this. It works like a charm. Definitely give it a try if you find taking mushrooms unpleasant. I think this is superior to encapsulating. This is with powdered mushrooms. I think this method is also actually good for storing. Although you start with powdered mushrooms, the finished product has less surface area and less air penetration than whole, raw mushrooms, and thus should have less degradation over time. Will update with pictures later.


Pressing pills is suprisingly simple. All it takes is a vise, a wooden dowel, and some PVC pipe.

Supplies:
1) 1/2" I.D. PVC pipe ~2-3" long
2) 1/2" wooden dowel.
3) Vise (Vises work best, but a clamp will work)

The asmably is pretty simple:

1) cut a 1/4" long section of the wooden dowel
2) cut a section of the dowel that is slighly longer then your peice of PVC pipe.
3) depending on the dowel you may need to sand down the dowel to fit into the PVC (It should be snug but not too tight)


To acctually press the pills, its pretty simple

1) place the 1/4" piece in one end of the PVC
2) Pour whatever your trying to pill into the other end of the PVC pipe
3) place the long piec of dowel into the PVC pipe.
4) Clamp the whole thing in the vise.
5) HEAVE HO! crank the vise grip untill you can't turn it anymore. Remember, the more pressure you use the stronger the pill will be.
6) Loosen the vise and place the lip of the PVC pipe on the edge of the vise, Use this to push the pilled material out
7) Clamp onto the remaining end of the dowel and use both hands to seperate the dowel and PVC pipe.
8) Congrats, you've pressed your first pill.


I developed this initially to press green meal, but I've started using it to press powdered mushrooms into swallowable chunks. They press quite well with no binders involved, and lets you avoid starting your trip with a prolonged gag reflex.

That's a really cool idea, wish I had a vice and a coffee grinder for that matter cause I've got some dried shrooms in storage but would be far better having pills. Out of curiosity, what weight in powder is in each standard size pill?

Well, my friend doesn't have a scale, but we estimate ~1 gram or so per pill.

great idea for anyone who hates the taste, or even carrying a few doses out and about.

thats a pretty neat and simple idea.

though whenever i hear the mention of hating the taste or hating chewing on mushrooms.

I always say tea is the way to go, made with your favourite herbal tea bag. Use twice as what you would normaly so the herbal tea flavour is strong. Tastes very good with just a hint of that psylocibe taste

Yeah, but not everybody likes the taste of herbal teas. I'm one.

How well do they stay intact? Seems like in transportation or storage they would break apart. But if they're stable this would work extremely well. Especially because, like you mentioned, the less surface area and air penetration factor.

They're pretty stable. Hold up just fine in a pill bottle.

The actual pill. The more force you use, the stronger the integrity of the pill. We can't comment on the uniformity of dose yet as I don't really eat mushrooms much anymore and he's only tripped off this method twice.

cool tek

I use a Cap-M-Quik w/ the tamper accessory

can fit about .45-.50g of desiccant dried mushrooms per 00 capsule

I usually only use aborts for pills, since they're aesthetically unpleasing and make for a stronger pill anyway.

the come-up with pills is so strong and pronounced, it just hits you all at once :thumbup:
