the actives break down very quickly when in a solution and oxidize rapidly, which is why you have the color you do. psilo's arent black/blue, they are when they are degraded.
Though I'd also guess that most of what is in those caps is spores and other non active material, as there is no way that much actives would be contained in 3.5g of mush.
Last time I consumed my 3.5g of DRIED cubensis it had PLENTY of actives in it. So, what do you mean by that Edible Stereos?
look at how much material is in those caps. Cubes have less than 2% actives in dry shrooms.
Therefor at most there should be 70mg of material left over after an extraction, there looks like far more than that there, id guess in the hundreds of mg. So that means that most of that extract is actually just spore/plant material.
Also my number of 2% actives is being very generous, and the actual content is closer to 1%.
Either way, it is very likely that those caps wont be active, or they will be reduced potency.
psilo just isnt very stable, and the blue colouring is from it breaking down.
I trust edibles judgement, but when you do get around to testing them, let us know how it goes.
