Instructions

1. 1.

   Prepare the Mushrooms

   
   Before you start, decide on the dosage you want to take. You can use any amount for Lemon Tek, just adjust the lemon juice accordingly. Use our Magic Mushroom Calculator to find the perfect dosage for you!

   It doesn't matter if you use fresh or dried mushrooms. Just keep in mind that you might need more lemon juice for fresh ones due to their higher volume. Cut them into small pieces or grind them into a powder. The finer the better, because breaking up the cell walls significantly increases extraction efficiency and ensures you get the most out of your mushrooms.

   Add Lemon Juice

   
   Next, add the lemon juice. It doesn't matter if it's fresh or bottled. Stir the mixture and make sure everything is completely submerged, so the lemon juice can reach every piece of the mushroom.

   
   

   You can basically use any juice with high acidity, but lemon juice works best because it also contains Vitamin C, which protects the psilocin (active component) from being broken down and destroyed (oxidation).

   You can also use lime juice, orange juice, or even apple cider vinegar, just keep in mind that it might not work as well as lemon juice. If you want to use orange juice, let it sit for 30 minutes, since the conversion takes slightly longer.
3. 3.

   Let It Sit for 15–20 Minutes

   
   Let it sit for 15-20 minutes. This is enough time for the acid in the lemon juice to break down (pre-digest) the mushrooms. The active components will be transferred into the lemon juice during this time and the acid converts psilocybin (non-active) into psilocin (active), a process that usually happens in the stomach. Since it is essentially "pre-digested," it can be absorbed immediately once ingested, that's why it usually kicks in faster, typically within 15-30 minutes.

   
   

   Don't let it sit for longer than 45-60 minutes though, as the active components will start to degrade and break down, reducing the overall potency. That's when your lemon tek liquid will start to turn blue. 
4. 4.

   Strain Out Mushroom Pieces (Optional)

   
   Now, you can strain out the remaining pieces. While not mandatory, this is the best option for most people to avoid the bad taste and potential nausea caused by eating the mushroom pieces. You won't miss out on much potency, as most of it is now in the liquid.

   
   

   I also like to use a spoon to squeeze out any remaining liquid from the mushroom pieces to really get every last drop. If you do decide to eat the pieces, the lemon juice will have broken down their structure, making digestion easier, though it still might cause nausea. That's why I always strain it out. 
5. 5.

   Add Water and Enjoy!

   
   Pure lemon juice is very sour, so it's a good idea to dilute it with some water, though this isn't strictly necessary. It's still going to be a bit sour, but much more manageable.

   
   

   I also like to add a sweetener like honey or sugar to improve the taste, since some of the mushroom flavour transfers over into the liquid. It's not as bad as eating raw mushrooms, but you can still smell and taste that there used to be mushrooms in there.
