When drying Amanita muscaria mushrooms, the goal is to remove enough moisture to prevent spoilage and degradation while preserving their quality and potency.

Storing Amanita muscaria mushrooms, or any mushrooms, properly is essential to maintain their quality and safety. Here’s how to store Amanita muscaria mushrooms:
**Ensure They’re Dry Enough:** Befor storing, make sure the mushrooms are thoroughly dried. They should be crisp and brittle, with a moisture content of around 5-7%.
**Choose an Airtight Container:** Select a clean, airtight container for storage. Glass jars with a rubber gasket or vacuum-sealed bags work well to keep moisture and contaminants out.
**Keep Them Cool:** Store the container in a cool, dark place. A refrigerator is an ideal option if you have the space. However, if that’s not possible, a cool pantry or cupboard away from direct sunlight is also suitable.
**Maintain Low Humidity:** Moisture is the enemy of dried mushrooms. Ensure that the storage area has low humidity to prevent any rehydration of the mushrooms.
**Avoid Freezer Storage:** While freezing can be used for long-term storage of some mushrooms, it’s generally not recommended for Amanita muscaria as freezing can alter their chemical composition.
**Label and Date:** Label the container with the type of mushroom, date of drying, and any other relevant information. This helps you keep track of freshness and potency.
**Inspect Periodically:** Check the stored mushrooms periodically for signs of moisture or mold. If you notice any issues, remove affected mushrooms immediately to prevent them from spoiling the entire batch.
