Whats your preffered method of storing large amounts of dried mushrooms?

This always happens... I get so completely wrapped up in the process of growing and maintaining my mushrooms, that I forget to plan for long term storage.
I just harvested and dried a decently large amount of mushrooms today, and as of the time I wrote this post, they are tied up in a plastic grocery bag. What is your preferred method of storing bulk amounts? Preferably methods that don't cost a lot of $$$$.
Thanks.

Tied up in a bag sounds pretty ghetto... I just use ziploc freezer bags with the zippers, and throw a desiccant pack in there with em to fight off any moisture.

I put them in bags suck out the air and then into the freezer they go. They stay cracker dry for a long time that way.

Making them into chocolates and keeping them in the fridge works really well. With chocolates they're sealed in crystallized fat and don't oxidize at all.

At least 50 years with libs. They were still potent with psilocybin levels close to a fresh fruit, due to proper storage. I definitely read the quoted study somewhere on here

This is exactly what I do, fan dry first, then dehydrator on lowest setting, when cracker dry gallon freezer bags with 2-3 10g silica gel packs per bag (from Amazon)
I bet blue honey is one of the most stable ways, honey maintains integrity for a VERY long time

Run the large amounts on four dehydrators then after they super cracker dry you can double trash bag then. A 56qt tote holds about 12 lbs of dry cubes.
