Would it be safe to drink a tea that's been refrigerated for several weeks now when it has developed mold?

As in, would adding some more water, let it boil for at least 20 minutes, lower it to simmer and let it reduce again, get rid of the nefarious microorganisms?

This may help

what color mold?

The thing is, we cannot know what mold and what possible mycotoxins are there... As I wrote in the other thread, I did extract from moldy cact and drank from a brew made with previously moldy vine, but in the first case I analysed it afterwards and it was clean, and in the second case I cleaned it up and scraped the mold off before brewing.

If you have the mold on the brew itself, thats a bit different. Heat and all of that may kill the fungus, but maybe mycotoxins could still be there? Who knows..

I`d either extract it or I`d toss it, in your case. If I extracted, I`d first remove the mold manually, filter the brew, and then extract. I`d try to run some tests if possible, or in the worse case, I`d only consume the extract by doing allergy tests with small amounts and raising it gradually in next sessions.

Hopefully its not a very concentrated/large brew....

Proceed at your own risk

Would it be safe to eat a bread that's been refrigerated for several weeks now when it has developed mold?

Thanks for all the replies. I didn't think about mycotoxins that might be there and won't be destroyed by boiling, and so it seems safer to just discard it.

i just tossed a 75g moldahuasca brew. Any idea's on preventing mold? Freeze it? I had mine in a container that was only sealed by aluminum foil on top. It was careless, disrespectful, and a total waste. Lesson learned.

The weirdest part though is when i pulled it out to check on it i tilted the container and there was this big long finger of either sidement or alkaloids protruding off the inside of the container and pointing down and into the center of the liquid. It was about as big around and as long as my pinky finger and was attached at the base to the inside of the container.

Pretty weird!
