shrooms crispy but not cracker dry and storing fresh mushrooms

Hey guys!

So I've been drying some shrooms with two computer fans. It's gone two days and they're almost cracker dry, they're just really crispy. (they're liberty caps by the way)

Will they still last? I have loads more shrooms I gotta dry and can only dry a little at a time. Want to do them quick before they go bad. They're in the plastic bag I put them in after i picked them. They're not stored in the fridge as I can't have them there for reasons, so I put them in the shoebox. Where's the best place to put them? They've been in the fridge for the first last two days so maybe they're got a bit of extra time :smile:

First things first get them out of the plastic bag..that's the worst place you can store a fresh mushroom, they'll be black and gloopy in no time.

If I were you I'd put them on a wire rack in front of a normal 12" fan, wait till they are leather dry in 24-48 hours, and then put them in a container or two with some desiccant to finish the job off.

Have you been drying them or have they been in the fridge, which is it?  Can't believe they were in a plastic bag... how awful...

Also, try the "move out of your parents house" tek, gets them dry in no time, and you can put them wherever you want.

I'm drying some and what I'm not drying is in the plastic bag. I can only dry a small few at a time.

I can't put them in the fridge dude to my dad doesn't want them there as my younger brother might want to eat them. What if I get a cool box, fill it with ice and water and put the shrooms in there (With a container obviously xD)

Just found out a plastic bag is bad for them, but I'm from the UK and paper bags are practically non exisant, wha about a sealable plastic box?

Get a small fan, take the front grill off, place the shrooms on some kitchen towel on the grill, use it as a rack. Point the fan down onto them. Simple.

Guys due to leaving the shrooms in the plastic bag i've noticed some have started to rot and look pretty grim. I've learned my lesson so I'm gonna bin them just incase and pick some more. I have around 50 dried which are fine so I'm going to indulge in them tonight :smile:

Don't bust into your little brother's room thinking it's a door to the cosmos.

I've left mushrooms sitting out at room temperature for 2 days with absolutely no harm done. Don't worry about rushing to dry them. You've already done the most damage you could do by putting them in a bag.

How can you confirm there was no damage without having dried some of them properly as a control group?  That's assuming they weren't multispore to begin with, which would invalidate any observations about potency differences.

I'm say there was no harm done as in they didn't start to rot.

Last year I was growing 2lb dried in one run, when my food dehydrator couldn't handle the output. I left my shitty dehydro running nonstop for a couple of days. For the mushrooms that had to wait, I found a clean surface in a quiet room and set them out. They looked the same, tasted the same, and felt the same as the ones that didn't have to wait. That's my whole personal experience with leaving shrooms out. Albeit non-scientific as fuck.

Hmm... I've had to leave them out for about 12 hours or so at the most and there's a bit of bluing but it's not too bad.  Seems to be worse if you get them hot and then leave them out, or leave them in direct light, or in a bag.  Either way, they definitely get slightly weaker if they're not completely dried within a week or so.  I don't know that because I've left out fresh mushrooms, I know that because I've left out mushrooms in unsealed containers that only had a little bit of moisture in them.
