Truffle ceremony with psilocybin - How many mg?
Quantity of mg psilocybin per gram of truffle
The truffles we use at Triptherapie contain about 1 mg of psilocybin per gram of truffles. At our magic truffle ceremonies we determine the dose of psilocybin based on the desired intensity of the experience and your personal background. The dosages and corresponding trip levels are as follows.
Low dosage: about 15 grams of fresh truffles (about 15 mg of psilocybin), leading to trip level 1-2.
Medium dosage: about 30 grams of fresh truffles (about 30 mg of psilocybin), resulting in trip level 3.
High dosage: about 45 grams of fresh truffles (about 45 mg of psilocybin), corresponding to trip level 4 or 5.
Heroic dosage: between 60 and 90 grams of fresh truffles (about 60 to 90 mg of psilocybin), leading to trip level 5.
Also see below the intensity and effect of the different trip levels available.
Psilocybin Dosage | Trip level | Duration (h) | Eligibility |
Microdose | 1 | 2-3 | Beginner |
Medium dose | 2-4 | 5-6 | Beginner |
High dose | 4-5 | 6-7 | Some experience |
Heroic dose | 5 | 7-8 | More experienced |
During trip level 1, the negative feelings of serotonin depression disappear. Because the communication of the hemispheres of the brain changes, music will sound deeper, colors will become brighter and the environment will become more tangible. During this phase people are more open and socially involved and open/honest. Triple level 1 occurs in microdosages as the maximum trip level. With psilocybin therapy with medium, high and heroic doses, you will initially briefly enter trip level 1 and return to trip level 1 at the end of the session.
Brighter perception of colors, visual effects such as the movement and “breathing” of objects, walls, etc. With closed eyes, 2-dimensional patterns can be observed. Due to changes in short-term memory, the user experiences continuous distracting thought patterns, alternating with extreme focus. The natural filter in the brain is bypassed, which increases creativity, among other things. During this phase, cross-connections can already be discovered. Cross-connections about, for example, why certain things happen and how you can deal with them.
Very clearly noticeable visual effects. Everything seems bent or distorted. Patterns can be seen on walls, objects, faces, etc. Mild hallucinations, such as the effect of flowing rivers in wood grains or other structures. Some confusion of the senses, for example seeing sound as color, etc. Time distorts, making everything seem to take place in the “now”. From this level it is already possible to connect with the subconscious brain, while it can still be controlled very well. There may be fears in the subconscious that cause stress without people consciously realizing it. This level is useful to combat those fears from the subconscious. Fears often come from the past and/or the future. These fears are not realistic at the moment and acceptance is possible during this trip level
Strong hallucinations, such as objects morphing into other objects. Perception of the ego fades, for example objects can start talking to you or you feel contradictory things at the same time. Some loss of reality, time becomes an incomprehensible concept. Possible experience of out-of-body experience. Mixing stimuli from different senses. Because of the loss of ego and therefore the loss of self-protection, one is harsh but honest about oneself during this phase. Problems can be addressed and given a place. The connection with the subconscious is very high at this trip level, which means that a lot can be learned about who someone is, while it seems as if it is someone else because of the loss of ego.
Total loss of visual connection with reality, senses no longer work in the “normal” way. A total loss of ego. Users feel themselves merging with space, other objects or the universe. The loss of reality becomes so bad that it is difficult to explain or put into words. This level differs from the other levels in that the actual universe in which things are located ceases to exist. During this phase there is absolutely no control possible from the ego. The connection with the subconscious is now maximum. During trip level 5, just like at trip level 4, it is difficult to formulate words and there is therefore little point in talking. It is, as it were, a dream that cannot be influenced by yourself. This phase can give you insights in an initially incomprehensible way. Level 5 psychonauts often call the trip experiences mystical, the most beautiful experience of their lives or frightening. Control freaks in particular find it scary at first. It is not wise to do this without experience with psychedelics.

Frequently asked questions about the amount of psilocybin
A medium dose (about 30 grams of truffles) provides a profound but still controllable experience. A high dose (about 45 grams) brings more intense visuals and possible ego loss. A heroic dose (60-90 grams) is meant for complete surrender, with deep spiritual insights and ego death.
The choice depends on your experience with psychedelics, your mental state and your goals. Beginners often start with a medium dose, while experienced psychonauts opt for a higher or heroic dose. During the intake, we look together at what suits you best.
Not necessarily. Larger amounts bring more intense experiences, but that does not automatically mean more insight. Sometimes subtler experiences actually integrate better. It's all about finding the right balance between intensity and your process.
