desiccant, Heat mat and Fan? <- is this ok?
#23637585 - 09/12/16 02:47 AM (7 years, 4 months ago) |

drying my first batch of shrooms was wandering if a heat mat under the Epsom Salt tek and a fan would dry them at mad speed, or will it just fuck with the desiccant or something?
Thanks

Too complicated..get a food dehydrator...stuff mushrooms in there, turn dial to max setting. Problem solved

Dried under fan for two days. Then put it in a big container with CaCl desiccant. Cracked into Piece without burning a whole in the pocket

Heat is needed to dry mushroom correctly, by just fanning you don't disactivate the enzyms that destroy psilocybin.

When I hunted Cyans in Washington, I didn't have a dehydrator. I would bake the Epsom salt to make a desiccant, lay it down in a BIG bowl with a lid, and place paper towel down over the desiccant. I would then place my shrooms on a peice if cardboard and place in the oven on the lowest setting (170 degrees) with the door cracked open about 4-6 inches, with a fan directed towards the open door. This was essentially a dehydrator. I would get them as dry as I could, and then put them on top of the paper towel, that is on top of the desiccant, place the lid on, and keep covered for 24 hours. This always did the trick.
People are going to argue that psilocin breaks down from heat, but it is at much, much higher temperatures. Dehydrators use heat paired with a fan too. I assure you, while you're waiting to buy a dehydrator, this will work.

Nice. Everybody loves a double poster.... People and their dehydrator aversions. Costs like 1/4-1/2 the price of a PC.

That may be true, but if money is that tight then why start the hobby.

Because I like to have some shred of enjoyment in my life? So people with no money should give up on hobbies? and give up psychedelics?
I can if I pool all my spare money together buy a dehydrator but I would rather use some stuff lying around then spend what I could instead use on something more important...

1 post was directly using a heat mat and the other was mainly questioning whether i could have a set up with a heat mat under a tub with desiccant in.

Go ahead and pioneer it yourself. Find out how far you, personally, are willing to go, with your mushrooms/hard work as the cost of travel.
If I worked hard on producing mushrooms I know I wouldn't be trying to use makeshift means to dry them. Seems wasteful to get that far and then fuck it all up because you're broke.
Who knows though, maybe if you make 4 more threads about the same thing you'll eventually get the answer you want.

I think if money is that tight you don't have to give up psychs but wait until you have money for the correct tools. It would be a waste of all the precious money if the shrooms do not get dried properly.

A dehydrator is definitely worth the investment. For my first grow I used a fan for most of it and then a desiccant chamber for the final bit of drying. Not only did it take over 2 days, but the mushrooms looked crappy afterwards. Sure, you can use alternative means to dry your mushrooms, but all it comes down to is that you're sacrificing quality to save a few bucks.

Is this actually serious? >.> The only people who "can't afford" $30 are people with other problems more important sucking up their money. In which case, is growing really something you should be doing?
I mean like cmon man. How fuckin hard is it to not spend $30 from your paycheck? Hell when I wasn't working, I'd go loot coins tossed in fountains and shit. Lol..

Just go take your half dried mushrooms and turn them into the police station now... at least then you'll get 3 meals a day and won't have to worry about not having 30 bucks..

look man just get a small fan, I bought one for 5 bucks online, put the mush on cardboard and let them dry under a fan for at least 36 hours, if shrooms are big leave them for 72, then all I do after is throw the semi drried shrooms into a tuppperware filled with desicant and a napkin placed over the desicant where you lay the mush on, leave it for 1-2 days in the closed tupperware and you will be fine. Ive dried over 100 grams like this

When I first started I didn't have a dehydrator and used a fan and desiccant. My mushrooms always seemed dry but it would take like 2.5 grams to get sub part effects. I dehydrated some that were "done" drying and they lost weight and were stronger in terms of potency. I will never fan dry again.

but for real OP. the only people on this forum who cant spring the $$ for a dehydrator are either kids growing in their parents houses... or people looking to get high.
id recommend eating them bitches wet and let them teach you something.

Someone asks this same, same, exact same question at least once every two weeks. The answer is always the same - use a dehydrator as hot as it can go. The response invariably is why the $30 and trip to walmart is just too much for them to handle - yet they're definitely in a place in their life where growing drugs is a good idea. Then they decide that we shouldn't be telling them the right way, that if we weren't such a bunch of assholes we'd just tell them whether or not what they're wanting to try will burn their house down or turn their shrooms into cream corn. 
Eventually we get told we're terrible people for not sympathizing and insisting it's not a good idea. After some more back and forth, once they realize no one is coming to their rescue telling them their game plan is perfect, they call us dicks, leave, and never return. The thread dies, and a few days later, someone else shows up asking the same thing without bothering to search for the same answer that's been given over and over.
I don't see any reason to show love. 
I wasn't knocking you man. I agree. And I'm having an awesome time reading the comments. I agree with you.

ok so before I delete this thread...
no im not calling you dicks, I just wanted an answer rather than 30 messages telling me im retarded. I would have been perfectly happy with a no, and why.
Yes i have looked around for why heat mats are bad. after not being fully convinced i asked it in my own thread and got 10 contradicting replies. literally half said yes and half said no.

And as a final note yes I can afford it easily. I was just making a point that when someone asks a question just answer it then judge why they are growing / making assumptions about there life and insulting them. Telling them they shouldnt be doing drugs at this time in their life because they are too poor.
I actually had ordered a dehydrator however for some annoying reason it is expected to be delivered 10 days late. I had all the things for a Epsom salt tek but just wondered whether adding a low heat to it would speed things up as they were very cold and drying very slowly..
Just wondering. Nobody has told me why its a bad idea just that its stupid blah blah blah.

u can also dry shrooms with just a heat lamp or a desk lamp with a 80-100watt incand bulb.

Echo we have your best interests in mind. Desiccant is for keeping things dry not drying out fungal flesh. Wouldn't it be a shame if after all your hard work your little babes get infected due to improper drying? You would have to throw them out or at worst you could get food poisoning.
We don't want that for you buddy, so I'm glad your dehydrator is on the way.

Yeah man turn the oven on 300. I personally get a foil sheet pretty large, then poke grid holes in it with a skewer like I'm making a SGFC. Small fan pointing in the oven. Flip your shrOoms after half an hour, let cook for another half hour. Pull your tray out. Take out the smaller fully dried fruits. Then you'll have some large ones that may need longer
I've noticed oven drying doesn't get large stems dry without toasting the caps pretty good. So I typically cut the large shrooms in half With a knife.

I put the shrooms on cardboard, place the cardboard on the top rack right on the edge, pull the rack out slightly (like 4 inches or so), set oven to 170, leave the door cracked slightly (resting on the rack that I pulled out), and point a fan towards the cracked oven. Idk how I feel about 300 degrees.
When my shrooms are dry (or so I think) I place in a bowl of epsom salt that I baked into desiccant and dry all the way.

If I remember correctly, shrooms don't lose potency until higher than I think 500 degrees?
Don't quote me. But high heat to dry the shrooms isn't a problem.

azur tried baking shroom brownies and the 350 degree oven killed the potency. OTOH I think cron put some cubes through a PC cycle and they remained potent. People make shroom tea with boiling water all the time too, so personally if I were gonna oven dry I wouldn't exceed 250 degrees.

Pretty sure somebody else did make a mushroom brownie, Lt Berkenstine or whatever. He said it was gross but it worked.

So can someone with the know how chime in on how high you can heat cubensis mushrooms?
I dried about two ounces 4 days ago with the oven door cracked and a fan blowing in...
Guess there is only one way to test the potency.

What are you talking about specifically? In a dehydrator, you just turn it up all the way. Past the 300F mark you need to be careful. Better to just not cook with it really, it's not that good. Frying in oil seems to be fine but I imagine the oil keeps some shit from oxidizing.
Just assume dry heat over 300F will fuck shit up. Coupled with the fact there's basically no reason to do that, that should land everybody in the clear.
Boiling water and below is free for all though.

I recently dried my shrooms at 350 with door cracked. Just ate 1.5 to see if they still work... I thought I read get them dry as quick as you can (so I do 350) also, makes my small home hot as hell running the oven, doubled with trying to block little man from running in the kitchen.
Damn I hope these aren't bunk

Uh... yeah don't do that. When I used the oven to dry before I got a dehydrator I'd set it to like 175 and open the door all the way and point a fan inside. 350F with a cracked door is asking for it..
