Psilocybe atlantis truffles vs Cubes?

Hey folks!
I am going to get a hold of truffles (Atlantis) and I was wondering how does a trip compare to shrooms. I know it is up to each individual, but I am curious of your experiences.
My normal shroom trip falls between 5-6 grams dry. What is a correct dosage to have the same level of trip on truffles?
How to eat them? (With OJ also?) How long does the trip usual last?
Just if you can share a bit about your experience with truffles I will appreciate it.

Thanks
I am familiar with mushrooms, just no idea about truffles. If i eat a whole box of 15g will equal 5g dry cubes?
I do not fear taking too much due my dosage on cubes, just I do not want a weak experience.

15 gm would be a pretty good dose... So sure I wouldn't say 5 gm cubes but should be an ok dose

It depends on if they are fresh or dry.
25g fresh would be like 5g dry cubes
10g dry would be like 5g dry cubes
That said, they are a different beast. Don't go in expecting the exact same kind of trip you get with cubes.

In what way are they different?
I've never had cubes because truffles are legal here and I thought they did exactly the same...
And OP, truffles are different every batch IME; same brand same truffles (Atlantis) gave me strong trips and underwhelming trips at 15g

It is gonna be most likely tampanensis truffles.
One more question, are truffles harder on the stomach than mushrooms? I know they are mushrooms too, but asking just in case
For me, I can eat 5.5g of dry cubes and I do not experience nausea or anything. I plan to eat 20 grams of these (fresh) to get close to my usual mushrooms experience and see where it takes me
If they are harder on stomach, how do you make a tea out of them?

Truffle potency varies a lot, for a start it might make a difference if you are eating homegrown sclerotia, stuff bought online or from a Dutch smartshop.
I've just posted about Atlantis potency on this thread - Atlantis Truffle Dosage - Conflicting Reports So Far
The sclerotia can sometimes feel a bit heavy on the stomach or a bit awkward to chew, but I don't think there's really all that much difference from shrooms in terms of body load or effects (if you are taking an equivalent dose).
In terms of dosage, there is some stuff sold online (typically Hollandia) which people report as being very strong - see this post for a few links to Hollandia trip reports.
If I was buying sclerotia in a Dutch smartshop and I wanted a trip that was going to be equivalent to 5+ grams of cubes, I would expect to need to eat around 30g of something decently potent such as Dragon's Dynamite.
As the potency is a bit unpredictable from one pack to another, I normally avoid eating more than 20g in one go, in fact I normally split my doses in half and redose after 90 minutes.
As for the tea, here is some advice on making truffle tea

To be honest, as the stuff is so unpredictable this is all you can really do....eat them and see what happens!

Thanks!
I am getting three packs of 15g each. They come vacuum sealed, so I will eat one pack of 15g as eating 20 grams will leave 10g opened and un-eaten. Depends on how the trip goes, will eat 30g in the future or two more of 15g each.
Since the product is vacuum sealed, how long will it last? Fridge or just stored in a cool place?

Fridge. If you plan on storing them for more than 2-3 weeks, break them into the smallest pieces you can by hand dry them. Grind them up in a blender (worst case) or coffee bean grinder (best case), like 1g at a time so you don't break the machine (there is a reason they call them stones) and make tea out of them to extract. If you just eat them dry, they will pass right through you without being digested.

So they will go bad even if vacuum sealed? My wife does not want me to trip too often hehe (even though she tripped on the past, lol) So might need to wait 2-3 months between trips
Despite she respects psychedelics, likes the wisdom they provide and has experienced them, a subconscious part of her still says, "It's a drug and it's baaaaaaaad"

Yes. They are a fungus with water in them. They will rot. The packaging may help them keep longer. You could pot them and keep them watered every time the dirt gets dry. Hell, you may even get some shrooms that way. That may help them keep a while longer.
Drying them will make them last the longest.

Okay, that makes total sense.
I ended up getting 2 cases of 15 grams each. Gonna eat one case and a half (22.5 grams worth of fresh tampensis truffles) For the other 7.75 grams maybe my wife will jump in, and if not, I'll either dry them or maybe break them down and toss them on the back of my house (here a ton of different type of mushrooms grow naturally, the weather is ideal, the other day I found (I believe) an amarita muscaria, but I was not 100% sure so I left it there, but it was huge!
So, probably nothing will grow, but who knows. I plan to grow at home some Golden Teachers and I plan to only do two flushes and then, break down the trays and just toss them around.
