I was working on my own TEK for this until I found this one, i think it is quite curious. I maybe Will try it and write an extended extraction.
Any way I am dropping the extraction
Into a suitable beaker, or stainless stee l container, place 500 grams of dry finely divided cactus (either san pedro or peyote),
and then add in 500 milliliters of water. Note: if the cactus is fresh, it needs to be cut up into small pieces, and then chopped up
in a puree machine or similar blender before use- in this case, use I kilogram of fresh cactus. If desired, you can dry your
cactus instead of blending it fresh. Once the cactus has been placed into the suitable container, and thereafter water being
added, bring the water to a boil, and just before the water boils, add in 30 milliliters of 35 to 38% hydrochloric acid (muriatic
acid will work). Thereafter, boil the slightly acidic mixture for about I hour. After boiling the mixture for about I hour, remove
the heat source and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. Thereafter, place 500 milliliters offresh water into a new
clean beaker or stainless steel container, and then add in 30 milliliters of35 to 38% hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid will work).
Then filter-off the insoluble tuff or materials (from the previous extraction), and then place this filtered-off tuff into the new
clean beaker filled with the fresh water. Thereafter, boil the entire mixture for about I hour (just like before). Note: after
filtering-off the tuff, do not discard the water mixture. After boiling the tuff in water and dilute acid, once again, remove the
heat source, and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. Thereafter, filter-off the insoluble tuff, and then place this tuff
into yet another new clean beaker or stainless steel container. Note: this second portion of water can be combined with the first
portion. Thereafter, add to the tuff in the suitable container, 500 milliliters offresh water, followed by 30 milliliters of35 to
38% hydrochloric acid, and then boil the entire mixture for I hour. After I hour, remove the heat source, and allow the mi xture
to cool to room temperature. Thereafter, filter-off the tuff (and then finally discard it this time), and then combine the filtered
water mixture with the previous 2. Finally, boil this combined water extract portion until the total volume equals 750
milliliters. When this point is achieved, stop the boiling process, and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
Now to the 750 milliliters of remaining aqueous liquid, add in 150 milliliters of35 to 38% hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid will
work), and then rapidly stir the entire mixture for about I hour at room temperature. Then extract this entire ac idic mixture
with three 75-milliliter portions of xylene (toluene should work with satisfactory results), and after each extraction process,
keep the lower water layer, and discard any other layers. Note: the xylene or toluene layers will be the upper layers, and can be
recycled if desired. After the extraction process, combine all lower aqueous portions, if not already done so. Then repeat this
entire extraction process (using xylene or toluene) two more times, keeping the lower aqueous layer each time. The xylene or
toluene upper layers can be recycled if desired after each extraction. After each successive extraction, combine all lower
aqueous portions (ifnot already done so). After extraction of the water mixture three times, boil-off the water until only 500
milliliters in volume remains. When this is the result, remove the heat source, and allow the mixture to cool to room
temperature.
To your 500 milliliters of remaining water mixture, add to it, 500 grams ofa 10% sodium hydroxide solution prepared by
adding and dissolving 50 grams of sodium hydroxide into 450 milliliters of water. Note: sodium hydroxide generates excessive
heat when dissolved in water, so allow the alkaline mixture to cool before using. After the addition of the sodium hydroxide
solution, continue to stir the water mixture for about 30 minutes at room temperature. Thereafter, extract this alkaline mixture
with three 75-milliliter portions of xylene (toluene should work just as well), and after the extraction process, combine all
xylene or toluene portions (if not already done so), and then dry this combined xylene portion by adding to it, 15 grams of
anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Note: during the extraction process, the xylene will be the upper layer each time. After adding the anhydrous magnesium sulfate, stir the entire mixture for about 10 minutes, and then filter-off the magnesium sulfate.
Finally, place this dried xylene or toluene portion into an ice bath, and then bubble into the mixture anywhere from 5 to 20
grams of dry hydrogen chloride. Note: during the addition of the hydrogen chloride, the MESCALINE and small amount of
MESCALINE derivatives will precipitate. Continue bubbling the hydrogen chloride into the xylene or toluene mixture until no
more precipitation takes place-this may take anywhere from 5 to 20 grams of hydrogen chloride. When no more precipitation
takes place, stop bubbling in the hydrogen chloride, and then stir the xylene or toluene mixture for about I hour at 0 celsius.
Thereafter, filter-off the precipitated salts, and then vacuum dry or air-dry them.
Now, take your died crystals, and place them into a suitable sized beaker. Thereafter, add in a sodium hydroxide solution
prepared by adding and dissolving 30 grams of sodium hydroxide into 350 milliliters or water. Note: sodium hydroxide
generates excessive heat when dissolved in water, so allow the alkaline mixture to cool before using. After the addition of the
sodium hydroxide solution, rapidly stir the entire mixture for about 30 minutes at room temperature. Thereafter, briefly extract
the alkaline mixture with two 20-milliliter portions of diethyl ether, and after the extraction process, discard or recycle the ether
portions. Note: after each extraction process, the ether will be the upper layer each time. After the extraction process, extract
the recovered lower aqueous mixture with three 75-milliliter portions of methylene chloride, and after the extraction process,
combine all methylene chloride portions (ifnot already done so), and then dry this combine methylene chloride portion by
adding to it, 10 grams of anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Note: after the extraction, the methylene chloride will be the bottom
layer each time. After the addition of the magnesium sulfate, stir the entire mixture for about 10 minutes, and thereafter, filter-
off the magnesium sulfate. Afterwards, place the filtered combined methylene chloride portion into a distillation apparatus, and
distill-off the methylene chloride. When no more methylene chloride passes over or is collected, remove the left over
remaining residue (after it has cooled), and then place it into a clean beaker. Now, add in about 90 milliliters of99% isopropyl
alcohol, and then stir the entire mixture to dissolve the bulk of the residue. Thereafter, quickly filter the mixture to remove any
insoluble materials, and then place this isopropyl alcohol solution into an ice bath, and chill to 0 Celsius. Thereafter, bubble
into this isopropyl alcohol solution, 5 to 10 grams of dry hydrogen chloride gas. After the addition of the hydrogen chloride,
stir the isopropyl alcohol solution for about I hour, and then place this isopropyl alcohol mixture into a distillation apparatus,
and distill-off the isopropyl alcohol at 82 Celsius until only 80% of the total solutions volume has been removed. When this is
the case, stop the distillation process, and allow the left over remaining contents to cool to room temperature before removing
from the distillation apparatus. Then filter the cooled left over alcohol concentrate to recover any insoluble solids. Thereafter,
vacuum dry or air-dry these filtered-off solids. Note: the resulting filtered-off solids will be composed predominantly of
MESCALINE ranging from 50 to 70% by weight. The remaining solids will consist of MESCALINE derivatives, and other
alkaloids. The dosage in this case, should range from 300 to 400 milligrams per person to compensate for the lower
concentration of the MESCALINE within the dry solids.
Note: Other salts of the freebase MESCALINE such as the sulfate dihydrate, tartrate, citrate, and phosphate can be prepared by
adding the corresponding acid to the alcohol mixture of the freebase MESCALINE compound obtained at the end of step 2.
For sulfuric acid or tartaric acid, I mole of sulfuric acid or d-tartaric acid should be added to 2 moles of the freebase
MESCALINE in the alcohol mixture. For citric acid or phosphoric acid, I mole of citric acid or phosphoric acid should be
added to 3 moles of the freebase MESCALINE in the alcohol mixture. The alcohol mixture before treatment with any of the
aforementioned acids, should be chilled in an ice bath at 0 Celsius prior to addition (just like in step 2). After treatment with the
corresponding acid in each of these cases, the alcohol mixture should be distilled to remove the alcohol, but only to the point
where 80% of the total volume is reduced. Thereafter, filter the resulting alcohol concentrate to obtain the crystals.
Just give an opinion. I have mixed feelings
