Copelandia storage method (need help)
    #27136649 - 01/09/21 12:11 AM (3 years, 19 days ago)

Hey all, I made a post previously on identifying some in the wild (copelandia) and now I’m starting hit the jackpot this season. I thank everyone for helping me out and reaching out and providing further information. I will reply to those after my hunt.

Question: I would like to know how to dry and store them without minimal potency loss as I know these are not like cubes and oxidation works faster with these.

Cheers,
This is the way.

If you have the means, get a dehydrator. That's the absolute best way to dry them quickly and keep as much potentcy as possible. There's good models out there in the 40-60$ range. If not your next best bet is probably to put them in front of a fan for a while and use a desiccant to finish drying them out to a crisp.

But really if you can, dehydrator all the way. You can then just keep it around for when you find more.

Storage, use quart mason jars, get some desiccant powder, put a little bit in a coffee filter and tie it up with a rubber band or something, whatever you need to do to make sure it doesn't fall out. That'll keep them cracker dry for a long damn time.

Thanks everyone, I’ve just been told to eat when picked ASAP because of them being simply Psilocin not psilocybin which makes copes breakdown easier and quicker.

I should’ve been more specific with this post as I already knew how to dry cubes I just thought that the dehydrator or fan method would either make them lose potency more so due to the species. Cause when I’ve dried cubes I’ve used both methods and stored them vacuum sealed in the freezer in a container or bags.

Oh ok, so just treat them as any other mushroom when drying and storing? Easy.

Thanks mate, can wait to test these out it will be my first time with copes and heard nothing but good things  :laugh:

Copes Dry In About Half The Time Cubes Do, They Will Shrink & Darken, When They Are Dry They Will Snap, If They Bend They Aren't Dry All The Way

Vacuum seal the jars with dehydrated herbs/mushrooms for long term storage with a Foodsaver vacuum sealer using a jar attachment.
