Hi guys I followed the STB extraction using the 1lb of MHRB per jug, mix lye with water and the naptha pulls... the problem i had is the TEK asked for 4 pulls of of naptha i did 2 left it in the water becuase i ran out and did it next day.... i got the end result in the fridge it looked like the picture but there was still alot of liquid left so i had to pour alot out then a little bit later it started to goo.... What should i do? its in the freezer now or should i let it dry it somehow? I left it out for a bit but it didnt dry.... and im kind of confused on how to do the recrystalization.... is it basically warm water up with dmt in it than add naptha to it and seperate the solvent from the dmt after? please help !  bigboy_245 attached the following image(s):  photo.JPG (1,814kb) downloaded 339 time(s).

What you have there is easy to work with. you could easily dissolve all of that in some warm naphtha evap the Naphtha until it starts to cloud up and then freeze frecipitate it. Another option would be to dissolve it in some warm Naphtha and do a slow eveap of it. By the looks of what you have you would probably get some nice large shards out of that. You could also just let it evap dry and then re-x it, or just let it evap dry and vape it like it is. Ice House is an alter ego.

Yea throw that in a warm water bath and just dissolve it down, you can stick it in the freezer, or before you do that after all spice is dissolved, try to pippette out the yellow goo and the bottom of whatever you are using, then freeze it and some time later, you should have some beautiful looking spice.

No. Don't put it in water. Dissolve it in as little naptha as it will dissolve in and freeze precipitate that. You just pulled some extra (highly active) plant gunk by letting it sit. White alks should precip out leaving you with yellow naptha that evaporated down will yield some crazy jungle goo. Don't throw anything away - there's lots of actives left to be had.

what everyone is missing is he is using a milk jug for his freeze perc. don't do that, especially if your using naphtha. naphtha melts certain plastics. you need to use glass during the extraction. you can use some types of plastic but milk jugs are not safe. they melt very easy. just a suggestion. every one has a purpose. or do they ??

How much experience dose a person need to respond to this thread steven? IME & IMHO what you have in your jug is fine. Taking it out of the jug and puting it in a wide mouth jar, like a 1 quart mason jar , would help. Then just follow ANY of the options listed below and you will be fine.

I would recommend moving your spice into a jar but the plastic jug its in now should be just fine as long as it is a HDPE plastic container. I prefer to use canning jar for extracts and a few 1/2 gallon canning jars would work perfect for this size of extraction you are doing. Anyway your extraction looks fine. You just gotta do a simple clean up on it. Follow one of the options I gave you above and you'll get some beautiful looking product. Ice House is an alter ego.

i tried milk jugs and they gave me a nasty orange subs. that's why i stoped. im not stepping on anyone's toes i just had bad exp. that's all. im new also so that's why im concerned . i don't want someone taking something that might be unsafe. if they did a reX im sure they would be fine. i just wouldn't trust the product they had originally came out with. clean it up first , thats all im saying every one has a purpose. or do they ??

hey man  dont get nuts on this  its perfectly good stuff. But i should redissolve in a little bit of hot naphta ( the less , the better ) then make a solution with sodium carbonate ( cleaning salt, depends where u live ) mix the naphta and the sodium carbonate and shake the hell out of it. Any residual lye will dissolve in the aquaous layer. Decant the naphta and freeze precip again. Then let it dry dry dry, it can takes some time ( days ) but it will dry believe me. i also got the same problem, just give it some more time to dry! Let us declare nature to be legitimate. All plants should be declared legal, and all animals for that matter. The notion of illegal plants and animals is obnoxious and ridiculous.
