HOW TO TOSS AND WASH KRATOM? IS IT SAFE?

Among the various ways of safely consuming kratom, we find that the kratom toss and wash remains one of the most popular methods [1]. If you are unsure how to toss and wash kratom, or simply curious about what this method is, we will cover all the main details of this method below.

If you find yourself needing some fresh kratom capsules or powder in the meantime, we got you covered. That said, let’s go ahead and break down the method of mixing kratom powder correctly for the toss n wash method.

All the Essentials of a Kratom Toss and Wash

The toss and wash method for kratom is an effective way of kratom taste masking while ensuring that you can take down your full dose quickly and efficiently. Essentially, what you do is put the powder into your mouth, and then wash it down quickly using water.

While effective, this method has some challenges. For example, placing dry powder in your mouth may result in accidental inhalation before you drink water. For this reason, this may not be the safest method for everyone.

Correct Serving Size & Steps For Consumption

Before we get started, it’s important that you have the proper amount of ingredients and know-how to do this safely.

Here is what you need to get started:

• 1-3 grams of kratom powder
• 1-2 cups of fresh water
• A gram scale
• A tablespoon

t’s best to start with a small amount, such as 1 gram, before gradually increasing the serving size. This is especially important for beginners. Having sufficient water is key to successfully washing down the powder.

1. Measure Your Serving
   Place the powder onto a gram scale to get the proper serving size. If you don’t have a scale, using a leveled tablespoon can help prevent overuse.

2. Prepare Your Water
   Before consuming kratom, have a couple of glasses of water ready. This ensures you can wash the powder down quickly and prevent any residual powder from remaining in your mouth.

3. Place All or Part of Your Serving on a Spoon
   To avoid inhaling powder, it’s best to take the kratom in small increments. Using a tablespoon allows for better control of intake.

4. Place the Powder on Your Tongue
   Placing the kratom on your tongue helps moisten it and keeps it in place before swallowing. This may make the process smoother.

5. Use Water to Wash It Down
   Drink water immediately after placing the powder on your tongue. Swish it around in your mouth before swallowing. You may need to repeat this process until all of the powder is consumed.

Alternatives to the Toss and Wash Method

Drinking down powder is not for everyone! Here are some extra alternatives to consider if you aren’t quite ready to go down this route:

• Drinking some kratom tea
• Taking capsules
• Making kratom smoothies
• Kratom extracts
• Mixing powder with orange juice, ginger, etc.

Tips For a Safe Toss and Wash

To ensure your safety and to have the best possible experience, we have some further tips for you to consider.

• Pre-Mixing Kratom in Warm Water: this is a great way to eliminate the risk of inhaling kratom powder before you wash it down with water
• Use a Spoon: As covered above, it’s best to slowly put kratom powder in your mouth using a tablespoon at a time.
