A friend of SWIM has recently completed an STB extraction and ended up with yellowy naptha. As it evaporated, it left a waxy film on the dish, along with some crystals. When the friend of SWIM then tried to collect this together, s/he found it became a brown waxy substance of sorts and isn't too happy. The being in question would like to know if there is a way cleaning up said spice? S/he has though about re-dissolving into naptha and then doing a warm sodium carbonate wash; s/he is also considering trying Q21Q21s vinegar/lime tec on the gunk s/he has.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Good quality Syrian rue (Peganum harmala) for an incredible price!

This is why you should freeze precipitate DMT from naphtha instead of evaporating it.

You could do a mini-A/B; dissolve it in an acidic solution (like vinegar and water) then base it, pull with naphtha and freeze overnight.
Or you could just re-x with warm naphtha a few times, but I would freeze precip it the first time though.

Good luck

I'd dissolve it in hot distilled vinegar, filter what does not dissolve, then evap, and wash with warm naptha/another np a few times (dmt acetates won't dissolve, fats, oils, crap will).

Scrape up the acetates after naptha washing, mix with 2x its weight in lime, make a paste by adding water, dry it at room temp or heat no higher than 90F, powder, then add that powder to warm naptha or heptane. Let it decant, or filter off the naptha, and pull 2x more.

Combine and reduce naptha/heptane until its clouding when warm (not hot), then freeze it. Make sure theres no powder in it from the dried lime paste before reducing or freezing.

Should get rid of any fats or oils present. Yellow/waxy spice will remain with naptha, but won't be pulled with heptane. You might want to pull again with naptha after doing heptane pulls if you want to recover this waxy/yellow (but active and worthwhile) spice.

Using heptane will only pull dmt, and not the waxy/yellow spice. Should be white xtyals upon freeze precipitation. You can also use a DRY alcohol to recover the yellow/waxy spice if you use heptane, but make sure its dry alcohol, and the powder is dry. Evap to get an oily residue that will harden up when scraped and worked with a razor blade. Alternatively pull with naptha and freeze precipitate for yellow/waxy xtyals.

In a society in which nearly everybody is dominated by somebody else's mind or by a disembodied mind, it becomes increasingly difficult to learn the truth about the activities of governments and corporations, about the quality or value of products, or about the health of one's own place and economy.
In such a society, also, our private economies will depend less upon the private ownership of real, usable property, and more upon property that is institutional and abstract, beyond individual control, such as money, insurance policies, certificates of deposit, stocks, etc. And as our private economies become more abstract, the mutual, free helps and pleasures of family and community life will be supplanted by a kind of displaced citizenship and by commerce with impersonal and self-interested suppliers...
The great enemy of freedom is the alignment of political power with wealth. This alignment destroys the commonwealth - that is, the natural wealth of localities and the local economies of household, neighborhood, and community - and so destroys democracy, of which the commonwealth is the foundation and practical means.” - Wendell Berry

Or, just recrystallize it, as per FAQ instructions Smile

The quickest and easiest way to clean this up it to recrystalize your spice. Add a bit of warm naphtha, dissolve all you can, filter any remaining gunk, and freeze the naphtha.

Another extraction will lead to a substantial loss of spice, and imo 100% unneccesary.

Thank you so very much for the information. SWIMs' friend has tried a freeze precipitation, however s/he ended up with milky naptha and no crystals. S/he has heard this may be due to there being nowhere for the crystals to latch onto and form - is there a way of ensuing this can happen? I'm sure SWIMs' friend will be letting me know in due course what s/he does, which I will share with the community.

Again, check the FAQ:

https://wiki.dmt-nexus.m....27s_my_snow_globe.27.3F

Its probably just not saturated enough.

^ yup.

Sounds like you used too much naphtha. evap 1/2 or use much much less next time.

PLEASE do read over the faq multiple times that endlessness linked to.

You're all very helpful, but my room-mate cleared my room of what she thought was dirty dishes. So vurry keyend of her. I have a new extraction to be working on this coming week and will be sure to let y'all know Smile

On another side related note, this SWIM business is hard work and ultimately regressive. Pooh-pooh to that non-ent.
