eating mushrooms in gelatin capsules....

like many, I really don't like the taste of mushrooms much, dry or wet. Thats why I got 1,000 size 00 empty gelatin capsules (about 13 bux on ebay)....I can stuff a little over 1 gram into 3 capsules but I have a few questions about doing them this way.....
First of all I pack them real tight so do you think when the capsule desolves that they break up enough in my stomache to get the full effects out of them?
I imagine I should drink a bunch of water for the mushrooms to absurb to right? since there cracker dry.

Pack em in as tight as you want!
Also, it doesn't really matter if they're dry, your stomach acids will break them down with or without water.

My friend can only take shrooms this way. You can fill em packed tight, drink as much or as little water as you want wont make a difference. You'll trip the same as if you ate em straight.
Have fun!!

I don't take any drug unless it packed in a capsule. I'm no Amazonian shaman. I have delicate, mannered sensibilities and no shit tasting drug will ever touch my tongue. Let the hippies munch on it, this city boy will bypass those taste buds.

I just finished eating some MAOI caps, will they take effect just as quickly as swallowing the raw substance?

Are you taking ayahuasca/pharma? I usually wait about 25 minutes after the MAOI before eating the freebase DMT in a capsule. These trips are usually five or six hours long. If I take them together, they are often shorter.

Well...a psychonaut's gotta do what a psychonaut's gotta....
But, that seems like an awful lot of work (to me). I'm hoping you are powdering your shrooms before stuffing them into gel-caps (as opposed to chopping them into little bits). Might not make that big of a difference to your digestive system--but I would want to "hedge my bets" on getting all that indole goodness via that route.
I'm lucky in that I find p. cubes that are recently grown and dried well...actually taste kind of "good" to me. So I just munch on them. But I have friends who disagree about the same batch of shrooms, so for them I'll usually brew them up in a tea that I cool and mix with grape or apple juice concentrate. I try to mix it such at a cup contains about a gram of dried goodness.
I originally worked out the tea thing on my own while in college when a buddy of mine who was growing on cased rye would offer me "trinkets" (most people call 'em "stem-butts" - the part of the stem that gets a bit gritty from contact with the casing layer). I wasn't up for eating sand, so I made a tea that I poured through a coffee filter. At first I would drink it warm mixed with honey, and that worked fine. But I had a huge supply of grape juice concentrate at my disposal, and I found that I liked that even better. I just had to remember to mark the "juice" with a skull and cross-bone warning my non-tripster house mates didn't accidentally go psychedelic!
Just an idea, in case you hadn't thought of it.
Good luck, and enjoy that Dead film!
(By the way--I went to a Dead show in Berkeley in '82 under the influence of the very concoction described above, grape juice made with trinket tea. Marvelous!)

if you can't eat the mushroom, then don't eat the mushroom...
but thats just me, if I give someone shrooms who can't stomach them then I won't let them eat anymore unless their willing to taste them, and become one with them, funny thing is most people do haha. Our aussie mush tastes like shit as well, but its not that much to have to deal with to get to the place that you do shortly after the taste IMO. 
sorry just venting OP, pack the capsules as tight as you can, but try to remember how much it is roughly so you don't hurt yourself or anyone else. Sounds like you have that worked out. drink them with water and proceed to

---I actually put them in a platric bag and crush them with a roller then dump them out and break up any little bit thats not crushed by hand.......also believe me....my cubes are recently grown and dried as good as they can be!
"if you can't eat the mushroom, then don't eat the mushroom..."
----I could eat the mushrooms and stomache them fine without throwing up or feeling sick or anything, matter of fact I never even felt any side effects from mushrooms.......I would just rather not taste them.
I use to just eat them with something but I hear you get off better on an empty stomache so thats another reason I started the capsules.
plus when your doing a bunch of shows in a row and your taking like 10-14 grams a night - thats a lot to munch down even if you don't mind the taste and the capsules make it easier.
"drink them with water and proceed to (face didn't show up)"
I was drinking them with OJ and not drinking much water but next time ill drink both with plenty of water.
If you piss a lot during your trip its not going to decrease the effects is it? what about taking a shit?
sorry for the odd questions. lol

From personal experience, these activities may take on a certain "charm" while tripping balls, but they should, in themselves, play no extraordinary role in your coming down. Of course, your body will metabolize the essences of the fungus, and part of that process includes your elimination systems.
What I find interesting is how I can be flat on my back, traveling alien landscapes, or being taunted playfully by "entities", huddling under the covers of my bed...thinking there's no way in hell I'm going to be able to get to the head if I need to...and yet, whenever the urge arrives, I seem to always be able to "straighten up" enough to do my business without making a huge mess...and then it's back to the previously scheduled tripping balls show. It's kind of neat, that way.
Good luck!
