Please help with peyote dosage!!

A friend and I bought a couple Peyote cacti at a local plant shop (peyote is surprisingly quite available here in Spain, despite its illegality), most definetly L. williamsi. One specimen was a medium sized single button cactus (about 5 inch diameter), the other was a pretty large one with many small buttons. We had them for a year, and finally harvested them after 2-3 months watering deprivation, and oven dried them at about 120 celsius (250 F) in order to avoid having them rot from high enviromental moisture. The yield was 26 grams once dried. How much should each of us take?? Research on the net has provided greatly varying doses anywhere from 3 g to 30 g dried, so I guess the mescaline content is highly variable. Considering our cacti weren't exactly young, they should be somewhat potent, but I'm worried the oven may have reduced alkaloid content. We both have experience with acid and are looking for a medium level trip (level 3 or 4 i guess). Should 7-8 grams be enough, or should we go for 10-13 each? I've read some people eating around 20 g and feeling close to nothing... And what method of ingestion? Chewing dry buttons, grinding to fine powder and mixing this with liquid, or boiling for tea?? any help would be appreciated...
here's a picture of the smaller cactus:

Have no idea about dosage, but mescaline is very resilient to high temperatures. So I wouldn't be worried that you killed the potency using the oven.

It's resilient to high temperatures because peyote grows in the desert

Ok, great to know the oven didn't ruin anything! I was hoping someone on these forums with personal experience with peyote could help me out with how many dried grams to take..

usually 5-8 dried grams is a low-ish to medium dose 8-12 is a high dose.
