Dehydrating amanitas that have already been bought dried

Hi! I finally got my hands on some Amanita Pantharinas and very excited to start microdosing.
I bought them from Europe and they have been dried for 4 days but at a low temperature of 38 Celcius.
My question is... Do I dehydrate them more (in my dehydrator) before making the tea (simmering for 20-30 min and adding lemon) since AD says they need to be dried at 80 Celcius for the 30% initial conversion? Or simply simmering and adding lemon would give me enough conversion to get the microdosing benefits?
Thank you so much!!!

I'm relatively new to this, but I put them on a low simmer/rolling boil for 30 minutes and add the juice of two lemons while it's boiling. This seems to work well, I then freeze into tiny ice cubes (as the tea tends to go off before I can use it all).
Hope that helps.

Thank you so much! I ended up simmering/ low boil for 30 min and then froze them into mini icecubes. I added the lemon only when I make my tea... From what I researched, that should be ok!?

Awesome,
@amanitadreamer is better qualified to answer, but I think that's also fine
I've found the microdosing very subtle, when I first started I wondered if it was even doing anything. However, I've found I'm generally more happy, and it's helped with my anxiety. I've also found if I microdose in the morning, I'll often have a vivid dream or two at night. I take a teaspoon in the morning on an empty stomach before my coffee
I've taken more a few times, around 10 teaspoons in the evening in a cup of herbal tea. Felt a sudden warm rush or flush around 30/45 minutes after drinking,. felt very relaxed. Slept like an absolute log that night.
Enough rambling. Have fun and take it slow.

Thank u!
Yup taking it slow... Planning to microdose for a while before trying a macro or recreational dose. So far, very subtle feeling, first couple of days I actually felt off... old issues from the past seemed to be coming up intensely for me... Despite this, feeling more positive during the day!

i'm curious how others are doing too. I was taking 1 tsp of the tea at night then 1.5 tsp- now switched to a tincture and they rec 15 drops to start upping by 1 drop per day to a total of 36 then taking a 1-week break and then start again. I so far have only felt effects immediately after- I feel calm as though I had a glass of wine. My dreams seem pretty good. I don't see any overall change in mood or anxiety levels. Thus far it seems to just last temporarily. I got off benzos 7 yrs ago. I am going to keep trying though as I think there is really something to this.
would really love to hear others' experiences too!

Hi all, I am new here and have just been learning from AD videos within the past month. I would like to try microdosing in order to wean myself off of ssris that I have been on for the last 20 years. Has anyone had a similar experience?
And, I was going to buy some off the new Ad website but if I boil them again to convert to all Muscimol how would I smoke them?

You have to smoke them dried, remove the gills, put them in a pipe and smoke.
