Dehydrator temperature

[Acu]

Hi all, i'm drying some san pedro sliced into stars in my dehydrator.

The dehydator has a max temp of 60 degrees celcius which i have it set on to speed up the process.

Is there any risk of any mescaline loss at this temperature?

I've read that mescaline will break up before the other alkaloids when exposed to too much heat but I'm not sure what temperature that is.

Cheers.

Mescaline is impervious to anything you can throw at it. I’ve boiled it and baked it in so many ways. I’m sure even a rail gun could not penetrate its robust and marvellous integrity

There's a small risk that under certain conditions mescaline can react with other substances found in the biomatrix, such as glucose, to form isoquinoline derivatives.

Fortunately, drying cactus stars at 60°C will be absolutely fine.

Great that's good to know thanks guys.

And it's okay to dry stars in sunlight too?

After a day in the dehydrator I've been letting them set in my sunroom for another day to make sure all the moisture's out.

Yes, sunlight is OK too.
