I saw on some other threads about extraction methods of psilocybin, and someone mentioned that using a Soxhlet extractor works, so i looked into it and watched a few videos on how they work online. i found this was a really good explanation.



Does anyone know how you would load cubensis into one of these things? What would be the best way to load them in there.?

  and also, how many times would you let it run over them  to get all the psilocybin. Would the color change in the liquid coming off of them at a certain point. or would you just run the thing for a certain amount or set time?

Also after using the soxhlet you are left with the liquid after, how would someone go about evaporting the solvent to be left with just crystals. i have no idea i'm just a noob to this stuff, but i want to learn. it doestn' look that hard to run a soxhlet or a rotary evaporator either.

what solvent would you put in the soxhlet for doing psilocybin extraction?



Load powdered and extract with isotropic EtOH. You can just run it for 24h under vacuum to prevent oxidation and allow lower heat.

A tiny one maybe. A large extractor is very expensive.

i have doubts a soxhlet alone will get everything out... I soak overnight (absolutely no water).. use a sonicator to double extract in solvent.. reduce in rotary evap, then dry in vacuum chamber.  that alone, you'll get a black goo.  You can take extra steps and run a defat stage to get that premium stuff.

I'm getting something exactly like this now:

I wouldn’t bother with a dedicated defat since it’s not needed. If you have a soxhlet available, extract to reduce material followed by acid/base extraction and finally cleaning and recrystalization.
