The only way air is going to destroy a mushroom is if you are not moving it and causing evaporation, it will rot. Air is detrimental to the actives but unless you are slicing them up and exposing the inside of the mushroom then it's basically protected. Any actives found on the outter portion of the mushroom is destroyed no matter what. Heat on the other hand will penetrate into the mushroom regardless of being whole or sliced.

And VDG, I tried finding that info on the net but couldn't find it anywhere except in a blog basically. I read books and get information, not just the internet.

Are you saying air causes it to rot?  And if you want to cite a book, or "information," feel free.

Seems to me that it is simple really. Buy a dehydrator put it on its highest setting.

Put mushrooms into dehydrator.

Then check them every once in a while.

When they are cracker dry. MAKE SURE THEY ARE CRACKER DRY! Remove and let cool.

Put in sealed container in a cool and dry dark place. Maybe get some silica packets to put into said container.

Yep.  Don't use the lowest setting. Use the highest setting.

I said, air "not" moving will cause them to rot because evaporation would not be taking place. Take time and try to read things before jumping to conclusions

I can almost guarantee that none of you dry your mushrooms that hot



Most dehydrators run at 160-165F........the actives don't break down until FAR past 300F.....

PF has that TRUSTED CULTIVATOR tag for a reason. He knows what he is talking about as do many other members. They know a hell of a lot about what they are doing and posting through longtime experience.

That being said, you can come on here and argue all you want. But that doesn't change the fact you are WRONG. And you don't appear to be willing to admit it, or learn from others. Not a good way to go about learning mycology.

When you have a question down the road are you going to argue with people's advice who are trying to help you? Or do you think you know everything there is to know already? I sure know I don't... this is a science and hobby where one never stops learning...:thumbup:

Now every point I was trying to originally explain to you has been backed up by people who know a hell of a lot more than me. I rest my case....:shrug:

Bro.....I was commenting on your argument about you turning the heat down on a dehydrator, so it takes more time to dry......

With YOUR logic, you would not lose any(or very little) potency from drying at lower temps, but you would lose more from oxidation(exposure to oxygen over a certain amount of time).....

YOU would be trading one potency loss for another........

Now using MY logic, drying them at a higher temp(still well below 300F), will reduce the exposure to oxygen, thus reducing the amount of actives lost......because you do not lose any active at temps lower than 340F....according to this link.....

This is a fact that has been backed up by thousands of cutivators......

I also use a dehydrator, an Excalibur. I guess it's more of a preference deal, I prefer to keep as much actives preserved as possible, even if it is a minor amount. Its like throwing away pennies imo, in the end they add up



In the end they add up to what? You will lose the same amount of actives from oxidation in the extra time it takes to get them dry at lower temps.....it's basically the same thing....get them dry as quick as possible then store in a sealed vessel.....




Your statement you just made proves that you agree with heat degrading actives lol





He never agreed heat of 160F degrades actives, only that psilocybin doesnt break down til FAR past 300F. Drying degrades actives no matter how you do it. Oxidization degrades psilocin. Once dried, no matter how you do it, the psilocin is freaking gone. Oxidization degrades psilocybin too, but its alot more durable. if you dry them slowly your are exposing to more oxygen therefore potentially risking loss of psilocybin. So scientificaly speaking you are the one making your shrooms weaker, where as we are not because we dry them quickly. Get it now?

I'll follow you when you show me a source that can I can believe more than my personal experience.  Because I can't be certain that I haven't just been lucky, I'm willing to consider it if you provide me something trustworthy.

Science is proven wrong almost daily, things we were taught in school are now bullshit. Its all you hear from scientists is we thought this and we though that but we now know we were wrong and come up with a new explanation that will be proven wrong in 6 months down the road. Learn from experience, don't be a follower.
