Heat & Potency loss, a chocolate question:
    #24014828 - 01/16/17 01:58 PM (7 years, 14 days ago)

I dislike making mushroom chocolates. I struggle mixing the mushrooms in evenly without the chocolate seizing. So I decided to mix the two ingredients before melting. BUT, the mushrooms will be in contact with the warm chocolate for a few minutes longer. My gut feeling is that the potency is not lessened with that little heat for that little time.... your thoughts?

____________________________________________________________

35 grams of dries cubes
23 oz of chocolate chips

Put mushies in the blender, make powder, leave in blender and add chips, chop them somewhat so that its all mixed and won't settle unevenly.

Then put in a zip lock bag, and melt in a pot of water. 20-25 minutes. 115 degrees.

clip corner, squeeze into molds. Easy, no seizing and removes fear that I made strong or weak chocolates.

active dont start to degrade until well over 350F. higher for one of the actives.. forgot which.
you are good to make your melt coco. btw a tip.

make shroom powder. dose into 2g portions, melt choco chips in microwave(i use white/choco swirl for fun)

use ice cube tray. pour 1/4 full in each cube slot with melted choco. add powder. cover wach with remaining choco mix.

stir with tooth pick in each slot. chill. enjoy.

OP was considering inconsistent dosages which happens when you just mix it all up like that.
weighing out separate 2g doses per cube slot is perfect. 2g is for a good time. eat 2 for a really fun time. eat 3 and never be the same.:awesanta:

There was a thread here where the guy posted how he deep fries the shrooms in 450-500F oil and it doesn't lose potency still. I can't find the thread though, maybe someone else knows what I'm talking about.

Funny, my friends must be light weights... I do .6 grams in a chocolate, and many just bite a half chunk. I think my cubes are on the strong side, but still half a gram has been working for me.

And I think I'm going to start feeling fine about my melting chocolate with mushies procedure. I honestly think its the best way to go. So easy.
