I'm sure most of you may have already done something very similar to this, but its so easy and never messy if careful. The magic bullet or nutrsystem mini blenders are awesome for grinding shrooms, it literally becomes dust and basically nothing sticks to anything, other coffee grinders have weird grooves and hard to reach places sometimes. I put two grams in got exactly two grams out not 1.9 as I expected I might. I'm sure a lot of you guys have mason jars laying around, and hopefully one with no holes in the lids lol. Put anywhere from one to five grams of mushroom powder in the bottom of half pint mason jar. You could probably fit more but I haven't tried over this amount so I wouldn't know if its not enough water. Pour exactly about 7 to 8 ounces of water in a small pot with anywhere from one to three teaspoons of lemon juice, people say real lemon juict-shirtse is better but im sure bottled would work, even straight water still works, I put it in for flavor and it makes a little sense if the water is even slightly acidified it might help in the extraction of goodies.. after swirling the lemon juice for a few seconds put on a lid and set it on med- med high. Its a small pot remember and only one cup of water with a lid on it will boil extremely fast. If you would like you could let a tea bag of your choice steep in the pot after it starts boiling just turn off the heat and bob it up and down for a while( on the pot on the stove not the jar) for two or three minutes to add flavor. I like chammomile it soothes your stomach.Take out tea bag from pot and put heat back on medium high just untill its boiling again, then pour the boiling water in the jar holding your powdered mushrooms up to the six ounce line and quickly put on the lid and tighten the band ring thing real good. Now you can shake your jar instead of stirring it. It keeps the water hotter too, so after fifteen minutes of shaking the jar every three minutes or so when you strain it it will still be nice and hot. I strain it with a one dollar funnelI and a coffee filter, I put the funnell on top of a drinking glass and pour the liquid and shroom concoction through the coffe filter.its easier to dump the jar in a small plastic pitcher first and would make it easier to pour the tea through the filter.you could also probably rubber band a coffee filter over the pf jar withe tea in it real tight, and just let it sit on its side in a small tuppaware container and when most of its out lift it upside dow slowly untill all the tea is out, wrap that filter around the last of the gunk and squeeze every last drop out so you dont waste.i havent done it that way it just popped in my head now, but the filter funnel works great Ive always strained it that way. I believe the whole heat thing is bullshit, or it may be true to a degree but I guarentee you won't feel a drop in potency at all. 1.7 gram tea still gives afoaf and a couple of friends from that foaf pretty cool visuals and wacky goofy thoughts and lot s oflaughing for about three hours. It is a shorter experience because at least how they notice it the come up time is reduced drastically and the comedown is strange, its like they're tripping hard and then for an hour the trip diminishes into almost sobriety. For 3.5 grams in tea they trip strong as hell for like four and a half hours but then they quickly become sober.. that's fine with them because they think the come up and comedown are the worst parts. The comedown can be nice with xanax though as they say, butanyway tea is strait to the point and intense! easier on the belly too. Some people say you absorb more actives with tea because the shroom powder is grinded to powder and just eating them doesn't break all of the shroom down because the body has a hard time digesting shrooms. Also I believe that because the heat stays close to boiling because of the lid, every last bit is absorbed. Psilocybin dissolves in water much faster when its boiling.and remember I don't believe in the heat killing actives nonsense.oh and one more thing I've only done this with store bought mushrooms, I've never commited a crime in my life, I've never even fast forworded through the warning and legal information on a vhs tape because I've heard its illegal,

Or just stirring the shrooms in the pot with a lid on it after the water has boiled, and keeping the flame off while steeping works great too, but with the jars you don't have to release any heat by opening lids to stir. At the end of the day though they both work equally. I personally think the jar is cooler though lol.
