My dog was thinking of using Mews fan-dried and diced green flesh globules technique and extracting the rest of Achuma with alcohol; but this sounds even better and faster to boot.
Is fan-drying to semi-dry and chopping still advisable to mix into resin; or dry powder only?
P.S. Does Mew still find lemon juice the best to help wash away the flavor? How are the balls going down; would a coating of honey/agave/real maple syrup help?
for this to work best the green flesh should be a fine powder, if it was diced chunks you would end up getting resin in your dogs mouth and maybe nauseated from it.
when the paste balls are made, mimic the size of a large pill, if they are too large you will likely choke as i have many times and often vomit as a reflex. the smaller the ball the easier the swallowing.
an oven is a bit overkill unless you can leave it on a hundred fifty degrees, but a day in the sun on a plate typically finishes the drying process really well, especially after the fan method. just be sure to turn the filets over once or twice.
dehydrators are like 30 usd, its well worth the investment
i only use lemon juice if the balls arent going down easy, but if you make them small you should be fine without it
as for agave/honey, that would defeat the purpose of your calorie free fast, remember what your mom said, "its medicine, not candy!"
im still looking for a safe way to upload a video
any suggestions and ill have it up asap
