long term storage of freebase spice in non polar solvent? Options

I have an amount of spice that I'm not going to use for some time and i'm concerned about it losing potency.my spice is currently in the freezer in small jelly jars which are inside of a larger mason jar with desiccant packs.

Would storing freebase dissolved in non polar solvent (like you were starting a re-x) stop it from oxidizing in to n-oxide for basically ever?

Does anything about that idea strike you as incredibly stupid?

Hey Kyngwhatt,

the problem with storage in solution is that all the molecules can move to the surface and oxidize there. In a crystal or chunk of freebase, molecules beneath the surface won't oxidize (as quickly?).

So if you store dmt in nps, you want to fill your container as much as possible, have an airtight seal (which in turn requires a container that can withstand the gas pressure of the nps at storage temperature) and maybe pump out or replace the air in the top.

Crystals in a vacuum food container would probably be simpler, albeit less perfect.

For how long do you intend to store?

Thanks for the response trypens. I don't really have a time frame in mind, I just know I don't tear through the stuff like I used to.

If SWIM was going to try to store freebase DMT for a very long time, he would dissolve the freebase DMT into naphtha with a heat bath. He would then seal it in some kind of air tight jar with absolutely no air at the top. Then he would put aluminum foil around it to keep out light and place the jar in a cool environment

The Naptha storage idea seems completely unnecessary, not only that, but storing it in solvent, might actually aid in degrading the alkaloid even more over a long period of time. especially if that solvent is not extremely pure itself.
I don't know this for a fact or anything...but that just sounds like a bit of overkill there.
An airtight container in a cold environment, is about as stable as it's gonna get.


Im just gonna let it go it probably lasts for years anyway
