Long Term Storage
    #22003642 - 07/27/15 09:52 AM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Can I store completely dried mushrooms in a container flushed and filled with nitrogen [or other inert] gas, to stop oxidation?

It would be nice to be able to store these for many years, like MREs.

In case you didn't know: A sealed contained with desiccant (silica gel seems best) is the best/easiest storage option for most folks.

But if you want to get crazy with it: You could possibly vacuum seal, maybe even freeze them? (make sure they're totallyyy dry obviously)

I don't know diddly about the nitrogen idea but it seems like it'd be easier to just suck all the air out :shrug: (aren't their little packets that absorb oxygen? maybe vacuum seal with some of those in their for good measure)

I just put them in a ziploc and throw it in a safe :shrug:

Once they're dry it's very hard to break down the active content. Obviously not exposing it to oxygen is nice but I've eaten shrooms I found on the floor in my grow room before that must have been dried weeks before and noticed no potency loss.

I would suggest keeping them away from light though.
