Dry Your Magic Mushrooms Without Losing Potency!

The best way to dry magic mushrooms without a dehydrator. Use our drying packs to preserve potency and ensure long-lasting storage.

 

 

Why Choose Our Mushroom Drying Packs?

1. No Potency Loss: Drying without heat keeps the full strength and quality of your mushrooms. Perfect for anyone who wants maximum potency and the best results.

2. Affordable: A simple and low-cost solution compared to a dehydrator. Great for beginners in mycology who want to save money and still get professional results.

3. Reusable: The packs can be reused almost endlessly when handled and reactivated correctly. This makes them a smart, long-term choice and an eco-friendly option for every grower.

4. Beginner Friendly: Easy to use with clear step-by-step instructions. There's no risk of overheating or damaging your mushrooms, and you only need very little effort to get perfect results.

5. Drying & Preserving: They are not only perfect for drying but also an ideal choice for preserving your mushrooms after drying. They create the best conditions for long-term storage, helping your mushrooms stay potent and fresh for years.

 

Why Are These Drying Packs Perfect for Drying Mushrooms?

1. Non-Toxic (Food Grade): Your drying packs must be food grade and completely non-toxic. Avoid desiccant packs that contain cobalt chloride, also known as indicator beads, which change color but are unsafe for food use. This is the most important factor when drying safely.

2. Reusable: Many desiccant packs are made for one-time use only, which is not practical for drying mushrooms. Choose packs that can be reused, since you'll likely dry mushrooms more than once.

3. High Temperature Resistant: To reuse the packs, they need to be reactivated in the oven at around 90°C (194°F). Some desiccants can't handle high temperatures and may melt, so make sure yours are heat resistant.

4. Non-Woven Fabric: A non-woven fabric casing is important because it lets moisture pass through more quickly than paper or composite materials. Faster drying reduces the risk of mold and helps preserve the potency of your mushrooms.

1. For Which Mushrooms Are They Suited?

These packs were designed especially for magic mushrooms. They enable very gentle drying without heat to preserve as much potency as possible.

They also work very well for gourmet and culinary mushrooms.

2. How Often Can I Use Them?

Practically indefinitely. The packs can be reactivated multiple times. The material has no expiry date.

Here is how you can reactivate them: Put them in the oven for 90 minutes at around 90°C (194 °F) or at 550 W for 5 minutes and repeat this process for 3 times. After that let them cool down for 5 minutes until using them again.

3. Which Amounts Are Suitable?

They work great with managable effort up to 300g fresh. With proper pre drying you usually only need to reactive your packs once

4. How Difficult Is the Process and What Else Do I Need?

The drying process isn´t difficult nor takes lots of effort.

Additional to the Mushroom Drying Packs you´ll need paper towels, an airtight container, parchment paper, an oven or microwave and a storage jar.

5. Dehydrator vs. Drying Packs: Which Should I Get?

📊 How We Calculate
Our calculator uses the absorption capacity of mushroom drying packs to determine how many cycles you'll need.
💧 Pack Absorption Capacity
• Each drying pack weighs 2g when dry (unsaturated)
• When fully saturated, each pack weighs 2.5g
• This means each pack can absorb 0.5g of water (25% of its own weight)
Example: 100 packs can absorb 50g of water total (100 × 0.5g = 50g)
🌬️ Pre-drying Method
• Fan drying removes approximately 75% of fresh mushroom weight
• Pre-drying takes approximately 12 hours
• Significantly reduces the number of reactivation cycles needed
Example: 400g fresh mushrooms → 100g after pre-drying (75% weight removed)
⏱️ Drying Duration
• Each reactivation cycle takes approximately 24 hours
• This includes both the drying time and pack reactivation in the oven
• Pre-drying (if used) adds an initial 12 hours before the cycles begin
🔄 Cycles
The calculator divides the total water weight by your pack capacity to determine cycles needed. If cycles exceed 3, we recommend considering a dehydrator for efficiency.
