Going on a trip this eve. Debunking myths!?!

Hi guys,
I'm going on a 6.5 dried grams libs trip this eve. The last two heroic doses I've done I have made a tea; get water to a light simmer, mushies, green tea, honey, lemon.
I was planning the same for this eve but was told this weekend that tea causes you to lose some of the psilocin through evaporation. I was always under the impression it helped release the active ingredient and cause you to come up harder and faster.
What are your thoughts?

i think so too. while it might reduce the amount of psilocybin slightly (i think it degrades at about 60°), it helps release the ingredients and makes the trip come on faster and stronger. i always infuse it a second time after i have strained it. and really squeeze out all the juice..

If you add an acid like lemon juice it'll stop any sort of potency loss and preserve the actives for longer. Although just mushrooms and water will work as well.
I've boiled mushrooms for up to 20 minutes with no potency loss.

I am absolutely convinced there is "potency" loss with tea. Absolutely.
A lot of us are weekly trippers here. If you want to prove this to yourself, take your regular tea dose this week and then take the same dose raw next week with the same set/setting, diet etc.
A lot of us THINK theres no loss. I used to think the same thing until I took 7 grams ground in orange tea. I was just happy that I didnt take my 9-11 grams that I was averaging at the time with tea
On top of that, with the trip being "faster" and lasting a shorter time, I find the peak to be too short and the come down lasting too long.
Basically seems like the whole experience is compressed into less time. I've also found that sipping/drinking the tea real slow helps, but I am usually trying to get it down quick for a number of reason, taste being number one
I like my trips to last longer.
I just wish I didnt hate how they tasted so much
btw, I simmer for about 15-20 mins.
edit: not saying psilocyn turn into wator vapor lol. imo people who say shit like that are full of shit.

6.5 of libs is like 220 boomers, i'm high off 10, tripping off 40 and climbing into space at 100 meeting doctor who.
150 is something ive done with massive tolerance n even that was bad, hope OP fastened his seatbelt.

With each containing one of the following: Cyanide... Psilocin... Would you take the risk? Didn't think so. This is why Positive Identification prior to consumption is important.

What are your thoughts?
At least make the tea properly - read my tea tek for how and why.
