Is it safe to blend fresh mushrooms to make tea?

I was thinking about just popping the shrooms with some water and citric acid in the blender and then throwing that in the pot to steep.
Is that safe?
Also if you have any other recommendations for extracting the actives and eliminating the indigestion I'm all ears

That sounds fucking discusting.
Whenever I make tea from Fresh ones I cut them up into lil pieces, not too tiny it doesnt matter too much. Then strain them out after steeping in a mug of Boiled water. (with tin foil over it for 25 mins)

Every time I eat them fresh I get crazy indigestion and I spend the first few hours of my trip wanting to puke.
I've made the conclusion that undried cubes are just plain indigestible.

That's what the coffee filter is for.

Just chop them like crazy with a knife or something so you get really small chunks I've used a blender on fresh mushrooms for a tea but it didn't turn them into a slurry because I didn't add water, that method worked perfectly

blending and steeping will not eliminate indigestion. Magickmuffin has the right idea. Cut the fresh mushrooms into little pieces, boil them in water for a minute or so, put them aside to steep for 10, 20 minutes. You could put some citric acid or ascorbic acid, ore lemon juice in the water to slow oxidation. When I make tea, I cut the fresh guys up, pour water mixed with lemon juice over them, let them stand for ten minutes. Then, put them in a small sauce pan with a cup or two of water--depending on how much mush you have, bring water to a boil and let mush boil for a minute or so. Take off heat, cover pan and let steep for 10, 15 mins. Strain out the mush pieces and discard. Drink the tea WHILE CHEWING A PIECE OF FRESH GINGER. You will have no problem with your tummy.

Don't be a pussy. Eat the mushrooms.
The acid is to neutralize the bitterant which causes nausea (strongest near the spores). I prefer soda. CO2 has a ph of 2, so it does the job.

So it turned out fine after I filtered it. This was the first time I tried shroom tea. It actually lasted longer for me than lemon or eating, I was tripping for about 8-9 hours. I surprisingly didn't get any nausea but the peak wasn't as cerebral or as intense as eating or using lemontek.
A state of balance is what all things strive to achieve.

Man I feel so good right now. It's like waking up on a windy cloudy fall day as a little kid. I can't remember the last time I felt this good.
Mushrooms are such an incredible drug. With other, drugs you always pay a price, it always takes something away from you, but mushrooms are givers.

I often will take shrooms, whether dried or fresh, grind them up in a magic bullet (a brand of blender), then drop in a chunck of ginger (tastes nice and alleviates stomach upset during come up), a splash of lemon juice (lemon tek), grind to a pulp, let sit for a while, then pour hot water in and blend again. Sometimes with some honey. Makes a pulpy tea that tastes nice enough to drink with pleasure, and the trip is certainly good.

Yes, that will work as long as you drink it right after. It won't keep, as the acid + heat will dephosphorylate into psilocin.
No reason it wouldn't be safe unless you put something into it that's not safe. You have acid in your stomach to begin with.
