Ok so the 2 previous times I consumed using LemTek method, but with orange juice. So would that make it OranTek???
Anyway, both them times gave me a really quick come up, great visuals and despite the 2nd time having a little bad turn (nothing to do with me) both times I really really enjoyed the experiences.
This time I brewed them in a tea. Going to be a short report as it was no where near as intense as the previous times. Could be something I done wrong though.
Visuals were next to nothing, just a little bit of hazing every now and then. Hearing was still heightened like before. I had 100% control over my movements and speech whereas before it was too much effort to create full sentences so I never bothered trying. I did feel all smiley inside and had a massive grin on my face at some points. And for an hour I went and put music in my ears in a dark room. That felt really really nice. I was all tensed up and constantly smiling. Basically this session was a really mellow laid back session. Hardly felt it to be honest.
I'll tell you how I done it and what I done which I'm reckon might have been the reason I hardly felt the effects. I'm sure you guys will be able to tell me if I done it wrong or not.
I got told to hold the water temp at 75 degrees C for 30 mins. Now I haven't got a thermometer so I had to guess. I put the pot on the smallest ring and on the lowest heat but still there was Tony bubbles around the edge of the pot. So I'm guessing I had the temp too high. WOULD THIS REDUCE THE POTENCY OF THE TEA?
When I used the LemTek method, I used 5g of dry shrooms. When I made the tea, I used 3g of dry shrooms. I read somewhere that it's pointless to redose after about an hour of the first dose. By time I got back to the house and decided I wanted to take the last 2g, it was about an hour and a half. So 2 hours once it has finished brewing. COULD THE FACT THAT I ONLY DONE 3 GRAMS COMPARED TO THE 5 FROM BEFORE BE WHY IT WASNT SO INTENSE AND ENJOYABLE?
All I know is now that I have had a really weak effect from brewing, I am going to stick to lemkek method from now on. Unless I try and brew a much larger amount like 10g or something.

So im guessing you didnt use any lemon or acid at all?
lets also break this down.
orange juice- chock full of citric and acorbic acid which is around ph 3.5.... 1 cup =124 mg vitamin c
What kind of water did u use? Was it tap spring or distilled?

Ah yeah sorry. I used a lemon.
Half a cup of normal tap water, 1 full lemon and the shrooms crumbled down as best I could with my hands.

Well dang idk then.
I use a small amount of ascorbic and citric w/mine and I do use distilled water since most tap has chlorine which is an oxidizer. That could be the culprit. It would have been great to know the temperature too.
Although ive made tea before and it never been as strong as when I use that mix of ascorbic and cirtic.
Yea its probly better that you stay with the lemon tek for now until you have a greater understanding about whats happening
One more question tho....what kind of filter did you use to filter the solids out?

Probably best bud.
I used a standard kitchen sieve to separate the tea bag and shrooms from the water.
