NEW 2023 DEHYDRATOR/DEHYDRATION TEK * 21
    #28319246 - 05/14/23 08:42 AM (8 months, 11 days ago)

Are you tired of scouring the forums and getting different answers? Do you see posts of people saying they get cracker dry shrooms in 6 hours at 120F even though you dried yours for 8 hours at 130F and they got bendy again in a week? GUESS WHAT NEW FIRE UNDENIABLE STANDARD DEHYDRATION TEK FOR MUSHROOMS JUST DROPPED.

Tools needed:
1. A dehydrator either new or used that can go up to 160F and be used for 24 hours.
2. Food grade Desiccant packs that allow for reuse.
3. Air tight jars whether plastic or glass.
4. Fucking fresh ass wet stanky mushrooms (poorly dried shrooms can be substituted).
5. A scalpel or your gorilla ass hands to tear apart thick meaty fucking 100 grammer shrooms.

Steps to be taken:
1. Plug that dehydrator in because you’re not here to fuck around.
2. Grab your favorite wet shrooms (this can be where you slice thick chunkers in half) and toss them on the trays.
3. Surprise motha fucka toss 2-4 desiccant packs in with the shrooms in the dehydrator for each quart jar you plan on stuffing. You add the desiccants packs into the dehydrator as well so they can be void of moisture and work properly the first time.
4. Click some buttons and change the temperature to 160F and the time to 24HRs.
5. You guessed it now you gotta wait.
6. After the 24 hours has passed you now got some dry ass mushrooms and desiccant packs to throw in air tight jars that should be kept in a cool, dark, dry place like ya mums poontang.

I WILL NOW ACCEPT Q&A.

Q. Can I use any other method such as X, Y, or Z?
A. No shuttup. I don’t care about how a Pacific Islander African tribe does this in some remote part of the world. This is the most standard and undeniable way that it will dry your shrooms to where you will have no issues after you open them months or years from now (1).

Q. I’m worried about my carbon foot print from using the dehydrator and its ecological impact. Is there anything I can do about this?
A. You can quit being a sissy nanny and get over it. Corporations pollute an unimaginable magnitude higher than all the humans in the world. Nothing you do will match or offset their greed and hate for the environment.

Q. I’ve read from multiple 18 year old threads that high heat or prolonged exposure to high heat can degrade or damage the actives. Should I change the time/temperature?
A. Did you not read a single fucking word of my from gods mouth to your ears post? NO 24 HOURS AND 160F. During the act of drying you will lose some amount of actives but overall will be negligible.

Q. 30$ is a lot of money and I can’t afford it. What can I do?
A. Get a job, suck 20 dicks, or buy a used one for 5$-20$. You’re gonna have so many mushrooms you ain’t know what to do with them all eventually and it’ll pay for itself 100x over.

Q. Do you have any pictures? I’m a very visual person.
A. I do have pictures but you’re not going to get them because you needa get some points for your free pizza from accelerated reading somehow.

Q. I don’t feel like my food grade reusable desiccant packs are being properly dried. Is there a better way to do it?
A. RTFM. Your desiccant pack should come with instructions on how to properly dehydrate/recharge them. Mine mention 0.5-2 hours baked at 200F-250F.

Q. I’m unable to find answer to my question here. Is there someway I can contact you?
A. No I’m too busy being a troll and providing obtuse/abstract answers to new peoples post. Any questions will be promptly ignored. 

Foot notes.
(1). There are no guarantees or warranties from implicit or otherwise stated facts. If you have issues maybe you should get a tissue.

In the interests of a slight nod to inclusivity and a point of accuracy, I would slightly amend this paragraph thusly:

No shuttup. I don’t care about how a Pacific Islander African tribe, or socially inept English brought up in 19th Century style boarding schools, who are unable to string together a coherent sentence that isn't pretentious, do this in some remote part of the world. This is the most standard and undeniable way that it will dry your shrooms to where you will have no issues after you open them months or years from now

Speaking as someone brought up for some time in boarding schools stuck in the 19th Century. This is largely why I trip now after all, to undo that damage. Just a thought.

Otherwise...

Desiccant tossed into your dehydrator defeats the purpose of either, the air is moving too fast for the desiccant to be of any use in this situation and should be implemented after the dehydration cycle inside your jars to prevent re-hydration.
Desiccant does not assist in removing water from something, but absorbing ambient hydration in the air, the dehydrator makes the ambient air hot enough so that water cannot stay, therefore the desiccant does not absorb anything, but looses hydration.

I'm assuming that the desiccant part was indeed meant to be applied to the storage rather than the dehydration stage. But the energy is impressive. This section for example:

Quote:

EDIT: Then again there is the section where it does look like desiccant is reactivated/dried I'm thinking, with the shrooms. So you have a point but if if they're food grade, that should work right?

LMFAO


Think he was talking about the method of drying as in yes there are multiple ways to dry but this is the right way to do it .And he's saying put the packets into the jars once they're done drying. Am I reading the same thing here ?

From what little I’ve seen desiccants need to be “charged” to be most effective. IE during periods of non use or even storage they’ll gather moisture so you’d want to dehydrate them as well before using. You can also see tbis on the packets they come in. They mention using the oven for like 2-3 hours & 200F.

I keep my desiccant packs in a sealed mason jar. I’ll take a couple out and put them in the dehydrator for the drying cycle. The mushrooms and the desiccant come out dry. If your desiccant is out in the air then the moisture content in the desiccant will rehydrate the mushrooms when you seal them up.

:whathesaid:

This is another way to do it but since I’m already dehydrating the shrooms I may as well have the packs dehydrated with them as well to be as fresh as possible.

I edited OP for further clarification. If this is not good enough I have three words for you.

Fair point, that did not cross my mind as I was reading things through.

Ah my bad I misunderstood. Thought you meant you dehydrated the packs and then threw them in the air right jars for later use.

Screwup's excellent advisory does have me however half expecting someone to ask about fanning the mushrooms in the jars because...CO2.

Then again, slightly off topic - I am starting to have nightmares about CO2 smothering me in my sleep because it's all down at the level of the bed. I'll have to build a machine, with levers, pullies, cogs, and suchlike to ensure that there is regular fanning at night. I'm not that tall so I am in imminent danger of being smothered by all the CO2 that is pooling around us up to a height of about four feet or so.

A small box, with a gpu fan in it and a fake Hepa filter, about 9 inches across, taped to a sorry looking mangled tote would help too. I know it will work, someone built one on YouTube so it's totally legit.

Goddammit man you're right! I knew I'd missed something important. It's that piece of undeniable evidence, just cos, based exactly as you say, on a twenty year old thread, that just slays all opposition and is in that tik tok video that's about 30 seconds long. I'm slipping, I really am. It's the CO2 I tells ya.

This was sorely needed but I'm afraid it will be promptly ignored because people seem to have a hard time with the search function, which I love for it's for its many features that allow you to drill down with minimal effort. But, as with any software I've developed, give people more power and options and you end up alienating some users because they get intimidated by looking at it instead of taking a deep breath and trying to see and understand it.

This was a long-winded douchebaggy way of saying I request that this be added to the sticky newb info thread.

But on reddit someone told me to scatter fresh mushrooms on the roof of my house and leave them there for 98 days with 4.5 box fans and they'll turn out perfect? I'm on day 19 and I am not sure it is working. Should I get a new roof? That will be hard since I am using my neighbor's roof without his knowledge and I spent all my money on Uncle Ben's bags anyway. Thanks for the help.

Yes.  Thank you for that.  This whole time I couldn't quite put my finger on why it looked so familiar.

Thanks dude. Gonna start linking people here when this comes up. This is the way.

On a side note, I'm a heathen who dries at 115 for days. Come at me bro.

It's because I sleep right next to my dehydrator though. Anything hotter is unbearable lmao.

Really think you should add a note about drying to constant weight. Once you THINK the mushrooms are dry, remove from dehydrator and weigh. Note the weight then place back in the dehydrator for another hour. Take the weight again and if it hasnt changed you can be guaranteed theyre dry. For best results use a scale with 2 decimal places. 0.00 g

You're correct but honestly 24h at 160F will blast anything drier than a crisp in my experience.

I understand the sentiment but if you’re cracking your 100G+ in half and doing 24HRs at 160F they’ll be dry. I’ve dried them whole before this way with no issue. If someone wants to do that (which I have done myself at the start) they could for their own posterity. After a while you trust the process to deliver consistent results. If someone told me they dried this at 24HRs for 160F and then weighed it at 23 hours and then 24 hours with a weight difference I’d call bullshit so fast.

The issue with this will then be someone dries it for 6 hours and goes wow I got XX weight. They dry it for another hour and get the same XX weight. Now they always dry their fruits this way until one day they realize their shit wasn’t fully dried.

It's alot easier to just try to squeeze a meaty fruit while everything is still in the dehydrator and see if it shatters if your not sure of proper dehydration times.  As a bonus, your fruits won't get beat to hell with all the unnecessary handling/weighing.

Mine are almost always dry after ~8 hours. I really wouldnt want to run the dehydtrator and expose the shrooms to air/heat for another 16 hours if its not necessary. Presonal preference i guess.

Depends on shroom size and amount in the tray.

If you only dry a single pin you might get away with 8 hours.

Which is fine for you but again this is the guaranteed way to get dried fruits and not worry about it months or years down the road. How many people post “I dry my shrooms to cracker dry and they were potent a few months ago but now they aren’t? Also I’d dried them for 8 hours”.

Being worried about exposing them to heat or air is nonsense compared to not drying them properly.

I got one of those dryers for fruit and it really ruined them, the temperatures were close 60 celcius at the top. You can tell if the temps is too high cause of the colour change. So like as a child we dried meat in winter thatbis the hunting seaaon cause they not breeding and you dont want to shoot breeding animals but also because there is less pests, bacteria fungi etc and our rain season is summer. So the air is dry in winter. So maybe you want the air tk be dry not hot, as hot air holds moisture, unless you blasting air past it. Ether way i never tried with mushrooms. Sometimes i left some shitake in the fridge and they dried fine. The container had holesand the moisture condenses on the back of the fridge.

Idk how this is relevant but aight lol. And how long have you stored the fridge dried ones?

At this point there’s a reason the people who know way more than me say to do this. Because it works and provides consistent results.

For the fun of it dry some mushrooms in the fridge, record their weight, put them in the dehydrator, record their weight again, put mushrooms in various jars with set times to be opened and test if they have degraded with only fridge dried or fridge + dehydrator dried.

Here's a desiccant calculator... I saw this on the forum the other day. The results are interesting. It says you only need 1.1 g silica gel desiccant for 1 liter of air volume.

https://www.agmcontainer.com/desiccant-calculator/

So, 2-4 5 g packs in a quart jar is overkill.

Overkill ain't always bad, but I wish I saw this information before I ordered 10 g desiccant packs! IMHO a single 5 g pack in a quart jar would have a significant safety factor but still be small enough not to get in the way.

Edit:
Found it: https://www.agmcontainer.com/desiccant-calculator/

Spoiler: 1g silica gel per litre is a good amount.

That is great, thank you (and Yahra)! So 1.0425g per quart jar. I think you're right, 1g seems sufficient, but a 5g is small enough and cheap enough, while also having enough margin for error to give peace of mind and make up for things like defects/early degradation.

Yeah I mean I think I spent like 10$ for 50-75 packets? Not too worried about putting more than may be necessary. Having room for error is better than the bare minimum IMO.

Ebay is my way to go to buy those packs^^ I would recommend getting the 1000 pack. You know, you maybe sometimes give shit away and then it's much better also to just throw in a pack of them. Better have enough xD

I neither do ebay nor do i give them away.

And since packs a reusable i think 10 are more than sufficient.

Just wanted to share my experience^^ 10 are not enough if you like to give away mush to others ;-) But for your use solely, 10 should suffice ;-)

Giving this thread a slight bump because it deserves it. Also to say that I'm just waiting on that one guy, stuck in 2003,
who will come along and claim that he can dry his big harvest of fruits at 120 F for 6 hours and they'll be truly cracker dry. There's always one.

I’ve always put all my fruits in front of my grand fathers old manual powered fan for 30 minutes and never had any issues this tek seems like over kill.

Awesome TEK! Thanks for the clarification on temperature and duration :takingnotes:

Bought a dehydrator after some mush rotted away and definitely wouldn't do it without anymore..

BEST post I have come across yet since signing up!!

I'm in tears but it is also some great info!

Only thing I'll add is that I will flood the mason jar with Bloxygen when I pull them off the trays tonight or tomorrow for long term storage.  Do I need to?  Maybe not but I already have it so why not.

Soon build a big ass giant monster for commercial Op.

All I use is infrared and PC Fans.

I've run my set up for weeks straight never switching off and it's holding strong 2+ years.

If you get moisture indicator color changing desiccant packets, you can toss them on top near the end of the dry time. Keep the dehydrator running until the packet color indicates dry, then you shrooms will be dry too.

That doesn’t make any sense…all that indicates is that the packets have dehydrated. Most of those depending on temperature states like 30mins-2 hours to dry them.

If you just mean because you want to kill two birds one stone then sure but that IMO does not indicate what you said.

When you run the dehydrator, the water evaporates up. If you have the desiccant on top, any moisture that leaves the mushrooms will have to go through the desiccant on it's way out. Packet gains moisture and losses it again. Works for me so far :shrug:

Yeah I wouldnt trust that. Put some at the beginning of your drying cycle and then I’d have a little more trust in that. Mine also blows horizontal as it’s a cosori.

I’ve had mixed result trying to dry out desiccant packs in my dehydrator. I like the idea, but the indicators don’t always change even after many hours. Most will instruct to bake at higher temps than my dehydrator is capable of, so maybe that’s the thing.

I just throw 'em fresh from the pack. I check the color to make sure they aren't pre-fucked. I've yet to pre-bake (other than myself).

Bumpety McMotherfuckin bump.

This deserves a sticky.

If you're hung up on waste and energy use, then look at every other aspect of your lifestyle. Odds are good that buying and running a dehydrator is far behind a thousand other things in terms of contributions to your environmental footprint.

If you're still hung up on waste and energy use, go buy a dehydrator at goodwill and hook it up to a bank of old car batteries linked up to solar panels or a windmill or a biodiesel generator. Or just accept the fact that a little plastic appliance that runs a small fan and heating element is probably the most sustainable purchase you could make this year, as it can be used to preserve any number of foodstuffs with minimal energy use.

One thing I don't personally get into is the silicagel packets. I just use glass jars for storage, and stuff them as full as I possibly can (no interest in "bag appeal"). I also heat them on the base of the dehydrator before filling, after filling followed by a little burp, or any time I'm going to open them. In my personal tinfoil hat headcanon, silicagel is designed to capture moisture, maaaan, and I'm trying to get it all OUT. Seriously, though, it is typically used in products with a moisture content higher than 0%, which is our theoretical goal.

That said, I probably would use them if I had jars of fruit I was constantly dipping into for consumption (most of my stuff just gets ground up and mixed into chocolate). I would definitely be recharging them frequently in that case.

Have a nice dehydrator full of mush. Going on 23-hours now at 165F. Going to let it go an extra few hours *past 24*...because why not? Might as well run it until bed.

Just adding a bit of sciency love for this post.  As a noob I was worried about too much heat, but I shouldn't have been. 165f is about 74c on the graph.
