It's well worth the price for something that will last forever.


This is the one that we own, we dry a lot of fruit and stuff in it though.

a Presto dehydrator like this is what I use, and I see alot of other members with the same one. it was like 30$ at walmart. Keep your eyes open for them in thrift shops for super cheap.

The main problem with these kinds of dehydrators is that the heating element and fan on are on bottom of the unit, so when you put things in there that have liquid in them it drips down onto said element/fan and causes a sticky uncleanable mess which will burn over time causing thing to taste burnt.

I've read that you can also use an oven on the lowest temperature with the door opened a crack but I don't know if I trust this method not to burn food or mushrooms.

I only use mine for mushrooms. I doubt they are wet enough for spillage to leak into its internals; maybe if I was making jerky that was marinading. I would assume that any water content in mushrooms would evaporate into the air during drying, not run into the system. Not saying you're wrong or anything. I've had mine for 2 years and use it all year round and its still going smooth. Maybe when it dies out, I will look into other designs then.

Be careful with oven drying too, I have done it a few times and ended up with mushroom soup back in the day and ruined a couple huge hauls of cyans completely. Before I had a dehydrator Id just put my mushrooms in a shoe box (or 2 or 3) with a fan on top pointing straight down on em for a couple days and I'd get cracker dry.

Also....just a reminder....since we are freely giving information to you about where to find actives (and potentially making it more difficult for ourselves)....

1. DO NOT pull the mushroom out of the ground.
2. Cut the mushroom at the base of the stem with some scissors.
3. Leave pins (little baby mushrooms) alone and let them grow.
4. Don't over pick a patch.
5. Once you find a patch, watch your step!





this should be sticked. Very important advice all should follow.

the best advice is persistence. Keep searching random, human-based areas. Woodlovers tend to grow near man-made areas.

Look then look again somewhere else. Youre bound to discover something beautiful :mindblown:

I would also like to add to that list;
Do not tell anyone where mushrooms patches are, they might not fuck over the patch themselves but someone else that they tell is bound to eventually.

We also use ours to make dehydrated fruit like apples and peaches and even with a rear heating element it still makes huge fucking mess.
Mushrooms would probably be okay, sometimes Boletes get a little waterlogged :shrug:

definitely.

Keep your patch or patches a secret!

Others may just totally destroy it.

Keep the location to yourself, if they find it by themselves, it just part of the hunt.

I have one friend that I can totally trust.
I think that you and I are in the same area by the way, maybe we could hunt together this season.

Yes indeed....as hard as it is to not tell somebody where patches are....it is almost always a bad thing. SkagitHunter showed me some of his Cinct spots but he knows that I share the same passion for hunting and can be trusted.

Anyways...about the food dehydrator....I think if a 30$ one works well then that is what I will do. Sorry Maynard :P 250$ is a little pricey. Sidenote...I never have gotten "cracker dry" from air drying with a fan. I get them really dry, dry enough that I had a bag of Stuntzii for a year and there were no mold problems or anything like that. But they still have some bend to them. I don't think I like the term "cracker dry" because I am trying to think of a time where I had mushrooms that were actually as dry as crackers.

Species Found: Gymnopilus Luteofolius ~ Panaeolus Cinctulus ~ Psilocybe Baeocystis ~ Psilocybe Cyanescens ~ Psilocybe cyanofibrillosa ~ Psilocybe Semilanceata ~ Psilocybe Stuntzii

"Cracker dry" sounds like a pejorative term for white people

I'm pretty sure I'd be classified as cracker dry.

Also, I'm going to be in Port Angeles on Sunday. I'm excited to hunt an area that I know has been getting rain.

:thumbup:

I took the fan off my Dehydrator and just have one running in the room. At the end of the season I get a pan full of spores at the bottom this way. Then i put my hands on the pan before i leave the house and dream of far off places my spores end up from my touch through out the day. Corny. I Know.
