My bad, I didn’t realize it was a watched material. Won’t happen again. I followed the instructions word for word. Every attempt that I e made with this bark hasn’t turned out. Hope this isn’t against sourcing rules but one would think it’s the same material as what was used in my 2 successful attempts. I’m stumped. Oh, and then to top things off I was grinding proper on a tuna steak last night and the ground pepper blew all in the pulls. The steps I didn’t completed were from covering it in airtight plastic on. Sorry, wish I knew more scientific terms to describe it. I get vape cartridges all the time but I wanna do the real deal and be able to share the experience.

Don't stress too much about it Smile it happens, and we've recently tightened up on the rules around it.

You can talk about the bark, and that it should be the same bark, from a different batch. Most of us will know what you mean. Just don't mention vendors and talking to them, etc. Just keep it strictly about the bark.

How much lye did you use?

You re-x to get rid of the pepper.

Can you expand more on the steps you didn't complete?

And no worries. It's a learning process. I mean, shoot, I'm more of a philosopher than chemistrySmile but we got you and will help the best we can.

I have a question about NaOH. Can I also use NaOH to extract DMT that is not in powdered form like this?

What did you pull with, and how much bark did you use? Was this with freeze precipitation?

I used 100 grams of mimosa hostilis. My solvend was wasbenzine, i have no idee wat the name is in other countrys. It is simulair like zippo lighter fuel. Still gonna do some pulls from the mix. And yes from the frezer.

That's a good enough choice for a clean (and cleaning!) naphtha. Glad to hear of your success - how have the next pulls been?

Hi all good people!
I'm running an A/B extraction with 100g MHRB, all steps was ok until the first hexane pull after basify step. I got carried away and I stirred the two phases a little too much, now I find myself with a bad emulsion for a couple of days that shows no sign of resolving itself even with hot bath. any suggestions?
May the Blessing be

Try heating it longer, mixing it occasionally.

Try back salting or better yet add excess lye until it resolves itself. Add enough lye should fix it quick.

As voidmatrix mentioned heat should help, hot water bath it and or running hot water.

The second pull was about 0.2 and the next pulls were not even worth trying. I gonna do a new mhrb mix tommorow. With the same sokvend. Perhapse the qaulity of the bark is not that great. I0 have about 1 grams total from 100gram mh.I am gonna try to fix some hetpane. But i dont know if it is allowd to have/order in ny country.

Grind up lye? Why would you want to do that? It's very soluble in water, to the point of being deliquescent in air. While it's liquefying from atmospheric moisture it is also absorbing carbon dioxide which reduces its efficacy as a base.

Well I ground it for better dosing when I prepare pH10 solution, and of course for my complete ignorance to the fact that absorbing carbon dioxide reduce it's efficiency so thank you for the explanation! =)

You can always dilute your solution if it's too strong. Alternatively, get close to the required amount using the coarse material and only grind a small bit for the fine adjustment.

NaOH is sold in prill/pearl form precisely to minimise the hygroscopicity and CO2 absorption.

Ok, I update you on the situation, the prolonged hot baths have not had much effect, there has been an increase in the clear layer of hexane but not a striking one. To be honest, I don't like adding more lye to the emulsion to make it separate, so I did a little experimenting tonight.
First I separated the aqueous phase from the emulsion / clear solvent. Then I split the mess into three 50mL Falcon and repeated the process 2 more times with new 100mL of hexane. In total there are 9 Falcons of 50mL full of a foamy structures and some clear hexane.
I centrifuged the Falcons for half an hour in a centrifuge at 4000g at 15 ° C and the phases succesfully separated. So I recovered the solvent of the three pulls with a turkey baster into the crystallization becker.

In 50mL of emulsion there was 4-5mL of acqueous solution, about 0,2 to 1mL of a tenacious foam like emulsion residue and 44-45mL of clear Hexane.
At the end of the process I have a volume of hexane of about 290mL on the initial 300.

Today I start reducing the volume of hexane and crystallization in the freezer and will update you on the results.

Hmmm. Interesting reading. Awhile since I've done any of this. Inherited a second wash, supposedly, from someone. It's purple, as it should be, and supposedly the leftovers from a single wash A/B using naptha and lye
I don't know, it seems to be straight solvent with little to no plant matter in it. Tried PHing it and adding extra naptha and then freezing, which yielded a slop that has a separation point, though a few filtrations have yielded nothing. Any thoughts??
