Making powder from your mushrooms can be a godsend if you want to microdose. It makes taking and dosing a lot easier and more accurate. To make your powder you don’t need much and in this blog you can read how to go about it.
When you microdose, you take a very small dose of a psychedelic drug. Usually these are magic mushrooms or truffles. You can buy ready-made doses and they are easy to use. But there are also good reasons to use your own fresh mushrooms. You can grow these yourself with a grow kit and then you can choose from a variety of mushrooms, from the Mexican to the Golden Teacher.
But if you use fresh mushrooms, you’re at a disadvantage in that they don’t keep as long. Therefore, mushrooms are often dried. These dried mushrooms are great for microdosing. However, there are good reasons to make your own magic mushroom powder. You get this powder by grinding dried mushrooms
These are the benefits of drying and grinding your mushrooms into a powder for microdosing:
To make your own mushroom powder for microdosing, you do need some equipment. But just because you have to do a little more work for it, it’s a good way to get intense with your microdosing process.
First, of course, you need a magic mushroom growing kit. When the mushrooms are fully grown, it is time to harvest and then dry them. How to go about this can be read in our extensive blog Mushroom Drying. If you dry them properly, these mushrooms have a very long shelf life and are suitable for microdosing.
Now take your dried mushrooms. You’re going to make a powder out of this. To grind your mushrooms, you need a coffee grinder or blender for it. This is usually done in a minute, after which you have a fine powder. Be careful not to open the device immediately. The powder is so fine that it would puff up and spread a fine mist of mushroom powder throughout your kitchen. This is not only a waste of the powder, but can leave your kitchen smelling like magic mushrooms for a long time.
There are several ways you can store mushroom powder for microdosing. Put it in a sealable container or jar and you can scoop out, weigh and take your dose whenever you want. Thus, you will accurately take exactly the right dose every time.
You can also make capsules with your microdose. Empty capsules are readily available online (both gelatin and vegetarian, in various sizes). You can put a dose of powder into the capsules yourself or use a capsule machine for it. Capsules make it easy to take your dose, and you are not bothered by the taste of the powder.
To weigh out a microdose, you do need a good, accurate scale. Ordinary kitchen scales usually cannot weigh microdoses because they do not display tenths and hundredths of a gram. For this, you need a milligram scale, such as the On Blance DJ-100.
When you microdose with magic mushrooms or truffles, you generally use one-tenth of a normal dose. So you need a dose of 0.1 to 0.3 grams of dried mushroom powder. If you use truffles (for this you can use a truffle grow kit, such as the Magic Truffle Growkit Utopia, then the dose is a bit higher, because they contain less psylocibine. You then take 0.5 to 1 gram of powder.
So those who will microdose can weigh out a daily dose of the magic mushroom powder, or take a capsule that contains the dose. Also keep in mind that you don’t always have to microdose every day. You can adhere to the Fadiman routine. This is designed to prevent habituation to the active ingredients (psilocybin) in magic mushrooms and to properly feel the effects of microdosing.
Now that you know how to make your own mushroom powder for microdosing, you can get started. Growing your own mushrooms or truffles is great fun. Still find it too much work? Then, of course, you can just buy our ready-made microdosing packages, such as from Wise Rootz or Microdosing XP.
