Thats the second time I saw someone say tea wasn't as strong and I literally don't believe it.
I feel like there's something to it, either shit mushrooms or somehow they're fucking it up idk
Don't see how it is physically possible tea could ever not be stronger
I should have added that I normally always eat them raw.(Dry shrooms are disgusting) I get pukeish for a while, but that passes. Tea just isn't my thing...it makes me piss more. And I prefer to not piss while I'm tripping. To each their own though.
Each flush I get one good trip and dry the rest to give to my kids. They dont seem to mind.
Your kids? Did you trip with therm (going off topic a bit)
I do. My youngest is a shroom head at 24 he has even had some luck at growing his own cakes. The older two trip a few times each summer with me. I'm a 60's baby so I basically grew up in the counter culture. Shrooms beat the hell out of acid.
That's awesome man.

This may be a dumb question but...
After I Make the tea can I add sugar?
Also last night I added lemon juice. Either I added way to much or I'm just not a lemon guy.

That's how I've been doing it.Reduce the shit out of it til it's about a shot.Cools faster too.(I also transfer cups once to get rid of the sediment at the bottom after cooling)I guess you could pour that shot into a glass of iced tea or kool aid or whatever. My dad told me they would make hot chocolate with the brew.

Im so curious what i did wrong to create that "coffee" tea lol. It tasted so awful and bitter. I followed the tek to a tee.
Maybe it was just the tea i used? It usually tastes great when i just brew it normally with some honey.
Or did i maybe use too much of it? I filled two mugs up with 1 cup of hot water, and put a tea bag in each of them. Then let it steep for 2 minutes. Poured both cups into the pan, and then followed the tek.

Could be that you used 2 bags.My first batch I used multiple tea bags,and while it wasn't dark,it did taste like very concentrated tea. after that I've just used one bag,half assed brewed at that.

Get some Yogi Kava, it is delicious with shrooms.

Heck yea Psycomvb. I love the Kava Mush Tea to. Still experimenting with different stuff. Other day we paired some AA+ with this Orange Tea cause we fancy like that It was very good.

I've done regular black tea b4 and it came out fine. Maybe it was too strong like mushroomNate said?

Hey everyone, hope all the tea brewing is going well
Last night I brewed up 4 grams into tea. The experience was a little lighter than I thought it should be, possibly bad genetics for one or two of those shoeboxes. I'm sure they were cracker dry. I still tripped but not bugged the fuck out like how I like to on a good strong trip. Perhaps next time I will just eat them straight. They say 5 grams is the heroic dose, but the four I ate last night didn't seem close to heroic.
I beleive it may also have something to do with chowing down on a random shroom here and there while harvesting. Sometimes I just can't help myself, theres a bunch of shrooms around if I don't have room for something, i'll just chomp it. Sometimes it will just look good and i'll just eat it. Perhaps doing this twice this week gave me a bit of a tolerance.
Just wanted to report on a tea experience, thanks for reading everyone!

Haha I love the idea of desiring to bug the fuck out...I doubt the method of ingestion was related to the intensity. It does affect the speed of the come up and the length of the trip though.
Next time I might go for a bug the fuck out trip

My experience was that tea did moderate the intensity somewhat. For me lemon tek is way more intense. BUT no stomach ache and still had a fantastic trip. I'm going to stick with tea for awhile I think. Next time though, I am going to really boil down the tea to a concentrated dose like mushboy suggests. Like half a cup or so.

This tek has you boiling the tea (from the tea bag) for a long time. Some varieties of herbal teas will do fine with the extended heating, but many teas will get bitter when boiled.
When I used to make lots of shroom tea, I would experiment with different herb mixtures. My favorites were Kava/shroom tea- gave a sedate and dreamy trip, and Ginsing/shroom tea which would get you super energized and electric feeling.

I boil mine in Mountain Dew, strain through a coffee filter and then add cool water to make it cool enough to drink. Works well.
