His words at https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkNetMarkets/comments/2w05aj/vendor_review_tripwithscience_liquid_mushrooms/

Hey everyone, Trip here. I wanted to thank everyone for the reviews and all the good will, and since a lot of this thread is asking about 4-aco-dmt, I thought I'd answer some of those quetions.

(TLDNR; No, it's not 4-aco-dmt. It's psilocybin extracted from psilocybe cubensis mushrooms)

Here's the process I use to make this liquid:

1) I grow my own mushrooms in a secure environment. I'm quite proud of my setup in that it facilitates quick and healthy mycelium and mushroom fruiting bodies. I grow Cambodian and Golden Teacher races. I've grown a few others in the past, but those two produce the most for me. I use the casing method to grow them in a rye-berry based substrate.

2) Once the fruiting bodies are harvested, I dry them out completely and grind them into powder.

3) Soak the powder in an ethanol alcohol wash for a week, agitating it gently every few days to maximize the psilocybin dissolved in the slurry, but not violently shaking it since I want to minimize the contact of the psilocybin with oxygen.

4) pour the slurry into a buchner funnel and use vacuum pressure to pull out all the liquid, which is stored in a vacuum container in the fridge to minimize heat, uv radiation, and oxygen breakdown of the psilocybin.

5) repeat steps 3 & 4 for a total of 4 or 5 washes. The first wash gets most of it out, but I want to be certain that I've extracted 95% or more of the alkaloids from the fungal material.

6) evaporate the remaining mixture down to my desired concentration, so that one vial equals 2g of dried mushrooms. Since I lose some of the psilocybin in the process, I calculate 2.05 - 2.10g of original material to each vial so that the end result is 2g worth of psilocybin.

7) One more filtration to remove any sediment left or discoloration.

How can you tell that this liquid is NOT 4-aco-dmt?

I guess there's no way to be sure for yourself other than trying it and seeing the difference, but here are a few thoughts:

a) I's slightly yellow and still tastes like mushroom-flavored liqueur. (I've tried to filter out the flavor as much as possible - as much as I love the way mushrooms taste in my brain, my tongue is still not a fan. But some smell and taste always remains.)

b) You can read other customer's reviews and experiences:

I had a whole year of reviews on the Silk Road 2.0 forums, but that got shut down. Luckily I had scraped the thread a few weeks before so I have a copy of everything written there - I just don't know a good forum where I can post a couple hundred forum reviews for the public.

I've had some customers tell me that they've taken my liquid to have it analyzed, and have reported back their findings. Feel free to do the same - and if so please post a review on one of the above sites.

c) My understanding of 4-aco-dmt, and any similar research chemical (RC) for that matter, is that it becomes unstable if dissolved in liquid. So I would expect there would be potency issues if someone tried to ship vials of it in liquid unrefrigerated. So dissolving a chemical would result in more work, extra weight and shipping cost, all for a less-potent and more problematic result.

d) I'm, like, way too cool to pull a switcheroo and give my loyal customers crap from a who-knows-where lab in China.

And to answer another question - yes, I'd be willing to do an AMA. I could answer questions about mycology, fun things to do on mushrooms, and (limited) questions about what it's like to be a small-time vendor on the darknet.

I'm quite proud of this liquid, and really-truly appreciate the feedback from customers about their experiences. There's a lot of work that goes into producing it, and even more meticulous work to keep myself and my customers safe. I take a lot of care in making sure my stealth is top-notch, and I stand behind my product. I've had a lot of people mention in their reviews and in PMs that I helped them have the best trip of their lives. For that, I'm humbled and grateful.

Thanks all,

Trip

Its much easier to soak ground cubensis mushrooms in high proof alcohol (kleenxtract or everclear), strain through a buchner funnel, resoak cake and restrain for higher yields. Then evaporate the alcohol until you have your desired concentration aka 1g mushrooms = 1ml solution.

You can also completely evaporate the alcohol and are left with a flaky, powdery substance that is extremely hard to dose without a mg scale and steady hand, and almost always results in heroic dose / ego death, types of trips. (I accidentally consumed the equivalent of 20 grams of cubensis one time, thinking that dragging my finger across the dish and licking it was a good idea)

Making a note over on /r/DNMavengers that this is of interest, it comes up quite a bit.


[3 Points] Magicpurpleponyrider:

Someone should forsure.. I've seen it many times where people have claimed that it's just 4-aco dissolved in a vile a sterile water.


[2 Points] netdarkasstosser:

An easier way would to attempt to make liquid mushrooms the way he describes it. And if you get similar results then perhaps they are legit.

i have 5 vials yet to try with the homies.


[1 Points] yea_tht_dnt_go_there:

I'm interested in their listing also.


[1 Points] youtakesally:

They can't quantify psilocybin at EC for now.
