>Any advice on gathering acorns so I don't poison myself with overripe/under-ripe/diseased acorns?

MS fag with the korean wife here, and we just gather them when they fall. We'll be at it soon as they're starting to fall now, you have to collect them before they start rotting, although the deer and squirrels are competition enough that it generally isn't an issue. As far as leaching out the tannins you have to do several soaks and washes. Do it until you don't detect any bitterness when you taste it. If you didn't do it completely it isn't poisonous, it just might be too bitter. For identification, a young acorn looks like this pic from my backyard oak tree I just pulled off. Obviously it's still small and green, meaning unripe. When it falls the shell part will be brown and hard and it will be under an oak tree. It's not a mushroom, you can't confuse it with anything else, lmao.
