Re: Making My Very First Tincture.......UPDATE [Re: Doc_T]
    #14335213 - 04/22/11 08:30 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

so as seen in the first pics i didnt use much everclear the first two extractions but on the 3rd i used 280 ml
i added all the 3 extractions  and evaperated down to 3 and half oz of liquid then did a water extraction  and double boiled it too combined  the two and got about 4 oz of tincture


so i gave someone about 3 drops not much effect gave them more and i didnt see them  again
now this was at a 420 gathering so no telling where he went lol

gave the vial to friend and he gave about 3/4 of an inch filled dropper to a friend whom claims he tripped balls
        ( my stsupid friend had his friend convinced he just ate a quarter of mush in tincture form so the power o suggestion may have had something to do with it)

But tommorow he is gonna give some very experienced trippers diff doses and we will have a more accurate doseing idea

So correct me if im wrong, but doesnt one of the active alkaloids break down at room temp or when oxidized? That would mean that boiling water with the mushrooms in it would break down one of those chemicals and you would not get both, you would only get one.  I make tinctures with a lot of different herbs and spices and mushrooms (homeopathic kinds of things not just for fun). And the key to tincs is knowing what you wanna get and knowing its chemical properties so you don't degrade it during the process...that is why some tincs are wicked expensive because they have to do 2,3, or more extractions (combos of water and alc and oils) and then simmer it down to even more of a concentrate.

Unfortunately you didnt correct me at all. All you did was offer a smart ass comment.  Didnt offer a solution or substantiate why I was wrong.  So why don't you find the answer for me, and the OP so we can be enlightened by your wealth of knowledge.

Yes, alcohol is fine (like doc already stated), it boils at a lower temp and contains less amount of oxygen which causes less degredation.  Acidic extraction is what you would use for this.  Not water unless like doc mentioned you add some salt for acidity. 

Still what I said has not been refuted by anything logic or data by you.  A real extraction with these two alkaloids would be ideal to do in a vaccum (if you're going for crystals or max potency).  I am not saying you cant do it with water, I am saying you will only get only one of the active alkoloids (psilocybin) which is all you get dried anyway.  It has nothing to do with potency of the one the alkaloid left.  However psilocin breaks down under heat almost instantly.

FACT: Psilocybin (this will last longer under prolonged heat) and psilocin break down under consistant heat (which is how you cause the water to boil) and even faster with exposure to O2 (which is what water is partly made up of and what is very present during a water boil or extraction).

Malarky: "You're Wrong"

I don't know where anyone "studied" saying that psilocybin isn't soluble in alcohol.

Actually, pf's extraction tek with everclear rocks.  My only change is to stop short of crystals for best storage life.  Several years ago, I reduced a qp of dry fruits down to a shotglass worth of everclear, and it's been sitting ever since.  Recently, I sampled it by squirting 1cc into a glass of orange juice.  Trust me, after three years, it works.

You can buy 190 proof everclear over the counter in Oregon, and several other states.  It's not on the liquor store shelves, but it's in the back.  They'll get it on request.  Just tell them it's for extracting herbs or mushrooms like shiitake and reishi into tinctures for nutritional supplements or body oil.  Lots of little old ladies in the PNW use it for that very thing.

Once you soak the material in the everclear, filter very well.  I use a metal spaghetti strainer first to get the chunks out, then run it through coffee filters twice to get the smaller stuff, then run it through surgical masks(not dust masks, surgical) twice to get it cleared up.  The extraction will be yellow when clean, almost like urine, and clear enough to see through a quart jar of it.  Once you get the extraction clear, put it in a double boiler and boil down until you only have a shotglass or less left.  Store in a tight container in the freezer.  1/2 pint jars work great for storage.

who said it wasn't soluble in alcohol?  I probably missed something haha

Psilocin is irrelevant to the discussion, since extraction involves dry mushrooms.

Guess you didn't see this...

I've really studied this idea, and it seems that heated water WOULD work to extract both psilocin and psilocybin. (tea works). But psilocybin does not dissolve in alc., so everclear extracts psilocin well, but psilocybin poorly. So if you wanns get all the actives, you either have to use water, or alc. and water. The third option is to attempt to de-phosphorlate the psilocybin with an acid. The problem is how do you know how much to use? I've tried it with 10x the estimated amount(of psilcybin)of emergen-c. It worked, but I had hoped for better results




Stop with the bullshit answers of "you're wrong" and actually start explaining stuff to people.  That's what this board is for.  If you just wanna tell people they are wrong, and not teach them something then you're here for the wrong reasons.  If I am wrong YOU NEED TO TELL ME WHY.  All saying someone is wrong does is...well...nothing.

Learn how to communicate effectively and maybe I would take what you have to say seriously...You're wrong, good bye.

sorry, that was for the OP. 


CRP - You dont ever boil the alcohol or water, if thats what you're saying. 

However, A good idea if you are planning on using water for an extraction, boil more water that you will need for about 15-20 minutes then let it cool down to 150 and start your extraction.  The boiling process should remove much the free radical O2 from the water, that should REALLY help increase the shelf life and potency.

The psilocybin does NOT degrade when you boil it. Alcohol extraction DOES work.

So show me where I can find the correct information?  Correcting someone doesn't mean telling them they are wrong.  It means showing them what is right.  You have failed to do that so far.

I said psilocin will degrade. Not psilocybin.  I never said alcohol doesnt work...I use it for most of my tincs.  Show me where I said alco will not work?  Come to my house and I can show you the cabinet with all my tincs in it...meditate on that for a bit.

This isn't really addressed at anyone in particular, and I'm sorry for hijacking the thread, but can the magic stuff be precipitated out of the alcohol solution? I think it would be awesome to eat magic blue crystals.

P.S.: I'm not sorry for hijacking this thread anymore, it's just a bunch of people being stupid and mean to each other.
