Best way to dry shrooms in dehydrator?
    #26620538 - 04/22/20 04:56 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

What is the optimal and best way to dry shrooms in the dehydrator? Do you do the highest temperature for a short period of time, or a low temperature for a high period of time? My dehydrator goes all the way to 150 degrees, so should I do it full turned up at 150 for like 5 or 6 hours? Or lower the temperature and for how long? What's the best way?

I use highest temp, depending on the thickness I go overnight or up to 12 hours

I definitely recommend high heat for a full 24 hrs. If u just have a couple of small ones then go 12 hrs but if u have a good harvest go a full 24. You dont want bendy shrooms in your bag later on.

Yup. Check after 24 hours.

For Pan cyans, dry at medium heat cause they are more delicate.

Yup, 24 hours is good. I’ll even go 36 depending on “circumstances”.

my dehydrator goes up to 80 C ( I do not know how much F they are) and in general I leave my shrooms there for 6 to 12 h ( depends how big they are).

the only way know sure when they are ready is to check them from time to time until they are cracker dry

I use a nice dehydrator set to 158 for about 24 hours. I split thick fruit like PE lengthwise and cut wide caps off the top of the stem for stuff like PESA. Learned my lesson..... fruit that appears to be dry really isn't totally dry, gotta go 24. When done I dump straight into a big, wide steel bowel and the fruits quickly cool while I weigh them out and vaccumm seal by the ounce. Goal is to have them sealed just before they begin to rehydrate from moisture in the air. I keep a z or less on hand in a jar with desiccant pack.

I'm trying to consolidate my knowledge about mushroom growing but in every thread I am guaranteed to find conflicting information. How do I know what and who to trust?

"There are several ways to dry them, but we will only cover the best way. What ever you do, don't use heat to dry them. Heat is very harmful to the psycho-active compounds. You will drastically reduce the mushroom's potency if you use heat to dry them."

Could someone clarify?

As with all information, it's only as good as the source. The one you're quoting was last revised 35 years ago. If you'd like a more recent recommendation, use the search in this forum, then sort by date. The latest posts will be the most scientifically accurate.

Thank you. You're right, that information dates to 1996.. time flies. I wonder what kind of basis they had for assuming that heat would ruin the shrooms back then.

It's really hard to gauge what's right and what's wrong. Thanks

According to Erowid, the melting point of Psilocybin is 220C or 428F: https://www.erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms_chemistry.shtml

I started here and it got me where I wanted to go. Its bod's list of good teks.  https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=24297804&page=0&vc=1#24297804

The general advice is follow teks to the tee, and this is solid advice in the beggining. What you will find is you will likely have to tweak a few things because your environment is different than the author's.  If it's really dry, you may have to mist more often, or humid, not at all, or adjust the poly, or tape or the crack in the lid. It all depends.  I had it in my head that I was going to use rye or wheat and my feed store let me down. Now I have a big ass bag of wild bird seed and it works fine.

So pic some teks that look good to you and give em a try because the best way to learn to grow is to grow.
