storing shroomz

[Captain]

Making icecubes or drying and then freezing im not sure about..prob would work but maywell loose potency..?

I think the potency thing is more to do with the air... if you are leaving them in your freezer for months and they are just sitting there they might lose potency through oxidation; if you put them in a ziplock bag with as little as possible air I think it would be fine.

Its the water freezing that destroys cell-walls, if they were dried it would stop this> think if you re-thawed them some of the active might be carried away in the water escaping from them? thats my thoughts on the freezing issue anywho

anyone heard of using dry ice to suck out the oxygen? someone told me about this today. it's specifically the process of oxidation that causes the loss of potency, i'm gonna look this up...

"swim finds drying them, crushing, then stuffing into capsules works pretty well. and funnily enough, by the time they're totally dry the amount you can stuff tightly into a cap (one of the big ones stuffed as tightly as possible) is a perfect dose. "

this is swims method also, wrapped in a handy towel in hot water cuboard. then swim uses a old cofffe grinder to make powder then into the caps, great to go out on the town with a bag full of caps, wicked form of currency at times!! and very convenient
2 is an average dose swim finds 4, 5 ,or 6 and its really game on!! now just have to wait till next door bark garden produces the goods it sems they dont pop till bout early june each year

what do you use to make the caps? what is a cap?

^^ a gelatine (or vege substitute) capsule, you can buy them at health shops. If you buy the biggest (oo's) you can use a standard size pencil to stuff them.

Heyas,

Sorry for dragging up a really old thread, but I did a search first and thought it was appropriate Please move this post if I've done it wrong!

I have a question as to the storage of shrooms... if dried and then the dried shrooms were say, put into a bottle of port that has been sealed... how long do you think that would be good for before it just became a rancid bottle of ordinary old port?

Thanks!

[Captain]

from someone who only drinks cheap as chips white wine, how long does it take for port to become rancid old port usually?

hyperthetically if stored in a cool,dark place it should last for quite a while...swim has seen people who had stored for a year or 2 in a similar fashion...

yeh ive also heard storing fresh shrooms in honey works a treat

this is true, done this and mushies still worked after a year.. and the upside is they taste waaaaay nicer, and you can do it whole no need to get all technical and chop the sluts up.
