Drying Q's (i read the faqs...)
    #1270492 - 02/02/03 07:21 AM (21 years, 1 month ago)

If i cant get any sort of dessicant, will fanning them for a few days on paper towels work good? Or will they rot when you only fan them? Has anyone found other ways to dry shrooms? Thanks

Fanning should be fine, it'll only take a bit longer.  In some cases I've completely dried smaller shrooms by fanning for only a day.  Just keep them there until they're cracker dry, they shouldn't rot :smile:

Try setting them under a regular 60 watt bulb to dry. This works well and is cheap to do. Try putting a black t shirt underneath them for added results :grin:

I picked up some crystallized cat liter (Silica Crystals) works like a charm, takes a while though, when im in a hurry I set them on a paper plate, cover with a paper towel, then cover with a black cloth and place about a foot under a light, the mushrooms themselves dont get hot enough to lose any appredciable about of potency, actually the mushies dont get hot at all, the paper towel prevents that. it still will take about 12 hours or more, but its a good quick way to dry em

Heat from a lightbulb if placed correctly (few inches away) will not get hot enough to destroy any potency.

If all else fails, go out and purchase a food dehydrator, disconnect the heating element, and let it rip. Good Luck!

if you have a de-humidifier, this works kick-ass like, take your de-humidifier, put it in a closet, take a cookie sheet put a layer of paper towel down, put the mushies on the cookie sheet then set the cookie sheet on the de-humidifier
