I harvested my shrooms last night stuck them in a food dehydrator for 2 hours...they seemed cracker dry after this and I was scared of making them to dry is that possible?! Anyhow, today I decided to powder my harvest in a coffee grinder (it was all clean and absent of moisture before) My powdered up shrooms feel as if they are not as dry as they where in there mushroom form and there is a little clumping going on. Should I/Can i stick it back into the food dehydrator? Should the powder be of chalky consistency when its truly dry?

There is no such thing as too dry when you are trying to preserve mushrooms. 2 hours doesn't sound long enough to dry mushrooms completely. They need to be able to be snapped in half without bending at all.
I'd try and make some sort of desiccant chamber to get the remaining water, as a dehydrator will just throw the shroom powder everywhere. Even a bit of moisture could cause bacteria or cause it to lose potency over time. I've had kinda dry shrooms last for about a month and a half and still be potent. But you're safest and best bet is to get it dry as possible.

Just a hypothetical... if you used your coffee grinder that you use to grind your coffee, that could be the culprit...coffee beans have alot of oil in them which is hard to get out of a grinder...that would result in some clumping...just throwing that out there.

I always double check. Weigh what I have, put it back in the dehydrator, and then weight it again a hour later. If the weight doesn't change then I know they're as dry as they'll get.

2 hours isn't even close to long enough for them to be dry. Most people leave them on for 12-24 hours.
