How to make your own capsules for microdosing mushrooms

Microdosing mushrooms has become increasingly popular as a way to experience the benefits of psilocybin without the intense effects of a full dose. One of the most convenient ways to microdose mushrooms is by making your own capsules. Learn how to make your own!

Capsules offer a precise and discreet way to measure and consume your desired dose. In this article, we’ll discuss how to make your own capsules for microdosing mushrooms and the benefits of using capsules.

What You Will Need:

• Dried mushrooms
• Coffee grinder or mortar and pestle
• Capsule machine (can be purchased online or in stores)
• Capsules (size 00 or 000)

Step 1: Grinding the Mushrooms

Start by grinding the dried mushrooms into a fine powder using a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle. It’s important to ensure that the mushrooms are ground into a consistent powder to ensure even dosing in each capsule.

Step 2: Filling the Capsules

Next, place the capsule machine on a flat surface and separate the capsule halves. Place the bottom half of the capsules into the designated slots on the machine. Using a small scoop or your fingers, fill each capsule half with the powdered mushroom, ensuring that it’s evenly distributed. Once each capsule half is filled, use the tamper provided with the capsule machine to press down on the mushroom powder.

Step 3: Closing the Capsules

Once the mushroom powder is tamped down, place the top half of the capsules over the bottom half. Press down firmly on the capsule machine to seal the capsules. Then, carefully remove the filled capsules from the machine.

The Benefits of Using Capsules:

1. Precise Dosage: Capsules offer a precise way to measure your desired dose of psilocybin. Each capsule can hold a consistent amount of powder, allowing for accurate dosing every time.
2. Discreet: Capsules are small and easy to take, making them a discreet way to microdose. They can easily be taken on-the-go or in public without drawing attention.
3. Avoiding the Taste: Mushroom powder can have a strong and unpleasant taste, making it difficult to consume. Capsules eliminate the need to taste the powder, making it a more palatable option.

Microdosing Schedule:

It’s important to note that microdosing schedules can vary from person to person, and it’s important to start with a low dose and gradually increase if necessary.

A common schedule for microdosing mushrooms is to take a dose every third day, with the following dose recommendations:

• 0.1-0.3g for a beginner dose
• 0.4-0.7g for a regular dose
• 0.8-1.0g for a high dose

It’s important to keep track of your doses and any effects you experience to ensure that you’re getting the desired benefits from microdosing.

In conclusion, making your own capsules for microdosing mushrooms is a convenient and precise way to measure and consume your desired dose of psilocybin. Capsules offer a discreet and easy way to microdose, and can help avoid the unpleasant taste of mushroom powder. Remember to start with a low dose and gradually increase as needed, and to keep track of your doses and any effects experienced.
