Call them and they will come

So Yesterday I made a post on here asking to I.D. some little mushies I found in my local area. The mushrooms have been calling to me this year as I have spent most of the year out collecting edibles. I have really wanted to get out into the field of looking for cyans and liberties but it's a little trickier than getting out there to look for edibles and I haven't had much time to really LOOK. Yesterday when I was able to get out and do some eye balling at surrounding areas I did not find anything that I was looking for BUT I did find an abundance of mushrooms of varying types which I left alone and enjoyed the beauty of. In the midst I came across a beautiful fearie ring, which going against all traditional lore I decided to leap into the center of with the thought in my mind "bring me mushrooms!"
Today a friend of mine stopped by on his way back from Seattle and brought me a paper bag with the entire bottom filled with Cyans. Even though I am 99.9% sure that is what they are I am posting pictures on here to get a positive ID before I take part in the spiritual experience they have to offer.
They are a bit old and have been handled so they're not looking their absolute freshest. I took one of the better looking caps and set it up to see if I can obtain a spore print, which I find doubtful but MAYBE - I do believe they've only been picked about 6-7hrs ago, so may still be fresh enough to get a spore print, we will see. The cap is setting up with a jar over it right now to see if I can get one.
Habitat: Low grassy substrate with mulch under it.
Gills: Color: Dark tan/brown
Stem: Length: 1-2 1/2in, diameter: about 1/8th inch, color: white with extreme green/blue bruising, solid.
Cap: Diameter 1/2in- 1 1/2in, color tanish to rusty brown, lighter towards edges with edges being bluish/green, texture: slightly sticky but not slimy (they're kind of dried out though), spherical wavy edges.
Spore print color: Waiting on spore print to set up
Bruising: Color that the mushroom bruises, if any blue green (almost blackish now that they've been sitting for a while, but (definitely hints of blue/green.)
Other information: I did not pick these, they were brought to me so this is as much information as I have about them.

What do you recommend as the best method for drying? I do have an actual food dehydrator but I'm scared that I can't keep the temp low enough and I've heard heat is not real good for drying psilocybes. Lowest temp is 95 degrees for my food dehydrator, but it has constant air circulation - do you think this would be sufficient for drying them? Here's the spore print I took, it's faint but it's a brown/purple with a hint of blue/green right in the middle where the stem was.

95F is just fine, psilocybin does not break down until way over that.
