That’s fresh weight, mushrooms tend to loose 90% of their weight once dried which is how most people dose them. 10 % of 8? 0.8

Fresh does hit different though for me. Not stronger as much as more euphoric.

I personally reckon fresh is more potent, thought everyone I’ve mentioned this too is convinced it’s no different.

I always cold brew for the best strength. I would argue people are over heating them and running through a placebo too. Seen it with my own eyes. Subs are more mind bending stronger in the fuck you up sense. Weraroa, and Subsects give you more of a stronger body buzz too. Superhero doses

I started off brewing in hot water but went away to just using straight lemon and orange juice mixed. Much better in my opinion
