Recipe: Spent mycelium tea (don't throw it away!!!)

Spent mycelium still contains a large amount of actives.
Crumble Blend up, put it in a coffee filter and run it through a coffee machine.
Add sugar to taste.
Enjoy your trip >:3
EDIT: corrected by myself back in 2003 :V
I would have been so proud.

would the same apply to magic truffles. Ie someone suggested that in order to be able to store it in a freezer, to make a tea from it. Now obviously you would strain the tea and be left with spent truffles. Does same apply to that, and if so what could you do with it?

They are still psiloc(yb)in so yes.
Keep in mind most of the psilocybin will likely break down to psilocin due to enzymatic degradation so the tea will not store.
Even better if you were to dry them and grind to a powder first.
Also, I added sugar as it gives a good taste.

If I was desperate and didn't have mushrooms growing it may be worth it, but I'd rather bury it outside and get more flushes instead of drinking bacterial/moldy spent cake drain water. Interesting thought though.

Well, hopefully you aren't growing bacteria or (other) moulds...
We were in the city so burying it wasn't an option but that would work, too.

We used parboiled rice as a substrate almost exclusively.
It would depend on what you are using I guess 
It tasted okay for me with some sugar added.
Maybe like a dry green tea.

I haven't grown for a long time.
And no, I just don't like to waste.
Seems kind of like a party foul :V

I ate an entire straw casing one time, fresh with salad dressing.
Then I lit the sofa on fire.
I tried to put it out by banging on it but that foam rubber inside gets hot and sticky just like fucking napalm :V

Waste not is fine but the notion of making substrate tea sounds like effort I would rather direct elsewhere. When I pull 8-10 zips off a mono the last thing I'm thinking is maybe I should make some tea out of this. Usually I'm debating whether to even bother with a second flush.

So I am getting conflicting information. I was recently previously advised that making magic truffle tea and freezing it would be a good way to store it fro long periods. You are saying that it would lose its psychedelic effect? Well then if so that exercise is pointless
I was also told that drying magic truffles makes them as hard as can be, and they are virtually impossible to grind up, and one poster said trying to grind them in his coffee grinder broke it!
So, how you actually grind dried magic truffles to a powder? If so, how did you do it? In detail please?

Screw your blender attachment to a regular mouth quart and blend away... that's how I griND my cubes to powder...an actual blender is a lot more durable than a coffee grinder...as for potency loss in frozen tea, I do not know...but I'm leaning towards minimal on that one.

For a start it is not 'blending' surely. An attachment would have to grind.
