Extracting psilocybin with alcohol

If I exctract psilocybin with alcohol, can I get high by vaping the psilocybin crystals? Or I need to freebase them?

I'm doing a thread on alcohol extraction right now, but aim for a tincture without any crystals.
IME you either need a lot of fruits, or use a lot of alcohol in multiple washes. Very little crystalline material remained in my case. It was either pure, and therefore very few crystals. Or the extraction did not work as well as I expected it would. Tested it, potency was so-so. To be continued.
Don't know much about smoking psilocybin, but sure am curious about freebasing the stuff. Go for it.
Love, Hanz.

That is an interesting read. I did not heat up or filter while hot. I soaked twice for 24h each wash using fresh alcohol for the 2nd wash. To check how much material was in the liquid I evaporated part of it completely dry. Very little material remained.
I had trouble squeezing the wash from my ground up shrooms. A full 25% of liquid was lost in filters and residue.
The potency of the remaining liquid was less than expected. I guess you could say I fucked something up.
I am now evaporating to a higher concentration. Will re-test soon.
I have also read about an alcohol-and-water extraction. First soak in alcohol, then filter, and boil the residue in water. Evaporate part of the alcohol, make the water more concentrated by boiling. Then add the two together when the result would be around 25% alcohol. Perhaps then there would be a more complete extraction.

One tip: If you don't want crystals, you better not use high proof alcohol, psilocybin is not soluble in alcohol. 40% Alcohol is what you want.
