best type of desiccant
    #19057840 - 10/30/13 02:10 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

hi guys, i was wondering from your experiences what has been the best type of desiccant to completely dry shrooms. after they have been sitting in front of a fan for a day.
here's all the different types i could find.
                               
                                • Montmorillonite Clay
                                • Silica Gel
                                • Indicating Silica Gel
                                • Molecular Sieve
                                • Calcium Oxide
                                • Calcium Sulfate

I'd say the food dehydrator machine. Cracker dry in a few hours.  :wave:

I used a fan and magnesium sulfate (epsom salts)it's pretty damn cheap all you have to do is cook it in the oven until its becomes one solid piece, break it up and use it as any other desiccant. It can be re-used too. Apparently it works better than calcium sulfate but can't confirm on that one.

I just throw a few food-safe silica gel tyvek sachets into a sealed mason jar with the fan-dried shrooms. Whenever the silica gel becomes saturated I stick them in the dehydrator for a few hours. Never had an issue.

What about putting them straight to the dehydrator?

mine was like $20 bucks from walmart, and its been beyond value to me...
you'll probably spend about half that on a bag of desiccant that wont last
nearly as long. but if you insist i have used damp-rid with success in the past.
it can be found at your local hardware store.

Dehydrator seems the way to go. Ill have one soon. Damp rid works great $3. I fan dry for 24 and then damprid for 24 hours. Cracker dry.. the driest shrooms I've ever had. Felt proud lmao. Just finished my first flush. Ounce dry from seven cakes.
