Also, lemon juice is the key when making mushroom tea.

what role does the lemon juice take part in? isn't psilocybin and psilocin water soluble ?

Just make your mushrooms powder and let the powder sit on lemon juice for 20 minutes before making the tea. All the info is here http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/20712101

I was gonna make tea my last ksss trip...I ground up the fresh shrooms best I could...poured lemon juice over it for about 30 minutes...then I got the bright idea that I'm just gonna drink it all shrooms and everything...have you ever drank vomit? That it what the consistency was...fml, I have an iron gut...but I almost lost my shit with that lol... anyways, tea is awesome.

Awesome!! Did you strain out the pieces or just leave them in? I can't stomach those pieces in my tea, they're way too slimy and taste terrible. I always gotta add a shit load of sugar or I'm not gonna drink it 
Hey Loc, that's really brave of you, I would've right away. Most of the actives should be extracted in that timeframe anyway. I like to press the shroom pieces against the sides of the cup before removing to get the last bit of moisture out. Can't leave any goodies behind!!

Depends on individual body chemistry, but usually around 5 hours with the usual comedown effects. I always have my bong loaded and ready for that. Coming down off mushrooms is always bad for me, I can barely sit still and my thoughts always start racing.

Ime. Come down starts around 4 hrs. Takes another hour for the last waves to pass through. Afterglow still lasts usually for 1-3 days depending more on what I'm doing and where I am.
And I agree with Mr. Alien though, juice a lemon or two, grind mushies into powder with coffee grinder. Add water andlow boil for 10 minutes. Add honey cud its fuckin awesome.

You're more the douche here. Ever consider someone is looking for the same answer as you and wants to be "included in the thread", and that's why that smiley was created? Slow your roll...
There's a tea recipe in my sig. You should both look at it. Making tea does not cause a loss in potency. If it does it's offset by an increase in metabolized actives and a stronger peak.

Not exactly; it depends on the form. It can be a freebase (found naturally) or a salt.
If it were mixed with lemon juice and water it could form the citrate.
The acid protonates the somewhat-basic amine group, giving it a charge and making the molecule polar.
This will be water soluble, but not the freebase which lacks the same dipole moments.

I've used inoc's tea tek. It's pretty good. Usually I just throw a bunch of shrooms in a pot of water, boil the shit out of them for like an hour, strain, cool and chug. Never had an issue with potancy.

I skip the boil completely sometimes using my tek. I get it to a simmer and turn off the heat because the lemon juice already did the work. I've never just boiled em. If THAT works, I dunno HOW people are fucking it up.

Yeah I made the tek because people I know failed at making tea somehow. I don't know how, I didn't want to ask.

No wonder there are so many threads on doing extractions here 
Water is right up there with alcohol. I guess methanol extractions would be the next step.

by the time i had posted my last post, i was tripping too hard to even write another post lol. ground up 5 grams of fresh mushrooms into a tea and downed it.. felt the effects in about 15 minutes and then hit me like a brick wall with bright lights, ambient colours and objects morphing and waving.. i definitely underestimated the tea and i will be doing it again

5 grams in tea should do a little more than bright lights and morphing and waving.
Oh nevermind didn't see fresh, very nice.

Cool! 5 grams fresh? That's roughly equivalent to half a gram of dry cubes.
I wish I could get the same level of effects with such a small dose.
