DIY Magic Mushroom Chocolate Guide
Today, we’re diving into the world of magic mushroom chocolate. Whether you’re a seasoned psychonaut or a curious newbie, this guide will help you create a delicious and potent treat. Remember, this is for legal prescriptions for psilocybin, so make sure you’re following all local laws and guidelines. Let’s get started!
What You’ll Need:
- Psilocybin mushrooms (dried)
- Baking chocolate (choose your favourite kind: dark, milk, or white)
- Double boiler or microwave-safe bowl
- Mixing bowl
- Spatula
- Chocolate moulds or ice cube trays
- Coffee grinder or mortar and pestle
- Kitchen scale
- Thermometer (optional)
- Gloves (optional for hygiene)
Making Mushroom Chocolate – Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Determine Your Dosage
Before you start, it’s crucial to determine the right dosage of psilocybin for your chocolate. A common starting dose for a moderate experience is around 1-2 grams of dried mushrooms. However, dosage can vary based on your tolerance and desired experience. Always start low and go slow!
2. Grind the Mushrooms into Powder
Once you have your dosage sorted, use a coffee grinder or a mortar and pestle to grind the dried mushrooms into a fine powder. This ensures an even distribution of psilocybin throughout the chocolate.
3. Prepare the Chocolate
Now, let’s melt the chocolate. You have two options here:
- Double Boiler Method: Fill a saucepan with water and place a heatproof bowl on top (make sure it doesn’t touch the water). Break the chocolate into small pieces and put them in the bowl. Heat the water to a gentle simmer and stir the chocolate until it melts smoothly.
- Microwave Method: Place the chocolate pieces in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
4. Combine the Mushroom Powder with the Chocolate
Once the chocolate is melted, gradually add the mushroom powder to the chocolate. Stir continuously to ensure the powder is evenly distributed throughout the chocolate.
5. Pour into Molds
Carefully pour the chocolate mixture into your moulds or ice cube trays. Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly and tap the moulds gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles.
6. Set and Cool
Place the moulds in the refrigerator and let the chocolate set for at least an hour, or until it hardens completely. Once set, pop the chocolates out of the moulds and store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
Tips for Success:
- Temperature Control: If using the double boiler method, be careful not to overheat the chocolate. Keeping the temperature low ensures a smooth and shiny finish.
- Clean Equipment: Make sure all your utensils and moulds are clean and dry to prevent any contamination.
- Label Your Chocolates: Clearly label your magic mushroom chocolates to avoid any accidental consumption.
Tips for Ensuring Proper Dosage and Even Distribution
Use a Kitchen Scale: Accurate measurement is key. Weigh your dried mushrooms with a kitchen scale to ensure you have the correct dosage.
Grind Thoroughly: Grind the mushrooms into a fine powder. This ensures even distribution throughout the chocolate and prevents hot spots of higher potency.
Mix Well: When adding the mushroom powder to the melted chocolate, stir thoroughly and continuously. This helps distribute the psilocybin evenly.
Portion Control: Use moulds or ice cube trays to create individual servings. This way, you know exactly how much psilocybin is in each piece.
Batch Consistency: If you’re making a larger batch, mix all ingredients in one large bowl before pouring them into moulds to ensure consistency across all pieces.
Advantages of Mushroom Chocolate as an Edible Option
Taste: Let’s face it, dried mushrooms aren’t known for their delicious flavour. Chocolate masks the earthy taste, making the experience more enjoyable.
Convenience: Chocolate is easy to store and transport. It’s discreet and can be consumed without drawing attention.
Longer Shelf Life: Properly stored, magic mushroom chocolates have a longer shelf life compared to fresh or dried mushrooms.
Slow Release: Edibles generally have a slower onset and longer duration of effects, which can provide a smoother, more prolonged experience.
Reduced Nausea: Consuming psilocybin in chocolate form can help minimize the nausea sometimes associated with eating dried mushrooms.
Safety Guidelines for Consumption
Start Low, Go Slow: Especially if you’re new to psilocybin, start with a lower dose to gauge your tolerance. You can always consume more if needed, but you can’t undo a dose once taken.
Set and Setting: Ensure you’re in a comfortable and safe environment, both physically and mentally. Your surroundings and state of mind significantly impact your experience.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water before, during, and after consuming psilocybin. Avoid alcohol and other substances that can affect your experience.
Have a Trip Sitter: If it’s your first time or if you’re taking a higher dose, have a sober friend with you to help guide and support you.
Know the Law: Make sure you’re aware of and compliant with local laws regarding the possession and consumption of psilocybin.
Mindset: Approach the experience with a positive and open mindset. Avoid using psilocybin when you’re feeling anxious, stressed, or depressed.
Keep It Secure: Store your magic mushroom chocolates in a safe place, away from children and pets, and clearly labelled to avoid accidental consumption.
