Mushroom Tea

Me & a buddy have 4 grams of dry mushrooms. We are going to be making tea for the first time so I was wondering what the best way to make the tea would be. Should I just toss the caps & stems in there, or break them up a little? Also, do I put the mushrooms in immediately or once the water starts to boil? And finally, how long do I keep them in? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Look there.
Boiling water is too hot & destroys psilocin.
1. Break up your material (break\cut as fine as you can 2. Bring water to a boil. 3. Put a tea bag & your mushroom powder (1 bag + 2gs mushrooms) in each cup (2 cups total for 2 people). 4. Bring the water to a boil, lift it and hold it off the stove for 10-15 seconds, then pour it over each of your 2 cups. 5. Stir then put a plate on top to let them steep for 5-7 mins.
EXTRA: strain through a coffee filter then squeeze the goodness out of the reminents
Strain + enjoy!

break them up a little.
do it just like regular tea.
boil the water, then pour it in your cups or a pyrex bowl with the shrooms and a tea bag or 2 of your choice for taste. boil more water.
let it steep for 10 minutes and strain out the shrooms. drink, and use the same shooms again to steep another cup (2 cups actually since its for 2). after the second dose steeps for 10 minutes, strain them out again and drink. strain out the shrooms and throw them out. you dont have to eat them, the majority of psilocybin/psilocin is in the tea.
by the time you drink the second glass it will be coming on strong.

Do any of you guys know how to make tea from fresh shrooms?
Should them be broken up and have boiling water poured over them (like making tea from dried shrooms) or should I put them in a pot with water and boil them for 10 minutes (like used substrate tea)?
I'm going out of town (yay spring break!) and I've no time to dry the shrooms beforehand, plus eating fresh shrooms always makes me queasy. Thanks in advance.

If it were me, intead of boiling, i would bring water to a boil before adding shrooms, then lower heat so the water is at a non-bubbley non-simmering steamy hotness. Then add them and let them chill in there for like 10-15 min as you say.
but thats just me....
