Im soon going to be ordering 50-100g mhrb depending on if I can find a better vendor or not Sad This will be my first extraction, I plan on using lazyman tek and think I have everything down. I plan on slowly mixing 50g's lye with about 350 ml's water, then slowly adding the 50g mhrb to the mixture. Swirling the jar around with a light shake trying to avoid emulsions. How long should I then wait before adding naphtha? An hour? Then I would add naphtha, lightly shake and give a warm bath, let sit for around 4-5 hours? Next take off the naphtha layer with a turkey baster, put it in shot glass's with plastic wrap over the tops. Then put them in the freezer overnight. The next day pour off the naphtha and dry the crystals. Sound about right? Am I missing anything? Please let me know. I can't wait to experience the spirit molecule, but want to make sure I am doing everything properly.

Check out the tek in my SIG.
It has a pictorial guide and is very similar so you can see if yours is right.
BTW shot glasses are too small for freeze precips really.
Please do not PM tek related questions
Reserve the right to change your mind at any given moment.

My only issue is that I don't have any way to test PH. So lazyman tek seemed great by just over baseing. Also in your tek are you useing normal table salt? And is the salt required? Or could I just skip the salt step? Thanks for your help
