Did you do a pre-freeze evaporation?

you are mixing the terms. from where i see it, you did very little reading on the chemistry and the processes before you embarked..you should make your self a favor and go through the various topics and use the SEARCH function. everything has been already explained somewhere.

you probably meant your solution is not basic (alkaline) enough ? if your pulls are getting brown emulsions with tiny bubbles, than yes, you should probably add more lye.

if your pulls on the other hand are separating slowly, and are staying dirty, than you have the brown naphtha thing, and you probably have too much lye already..

Would this extraction (Norman Tek) work with D-Linomene in place of Naptha?

ok i know i may be posting in the minorly incorrect section and some of you may say search this, but i haven't found quite the answer im looking for from someone with the experience im seeking, there's a thread on here mentioning the use of advanced nutrients ph up instead of lye, which in some areas is rather difficult to obtain without making it. SO, coming back from the hydro store i have this stuff, and the msds tells me its 45% potassium hydroxide, but i cannot find out what the other 55 is, someone said they are led to believe it's distilled water, but i'd like someone with experience in this particular subject to chime in before i basify incorrectly/unsafely.

i believe you can boil and/or evap this down to a crystal/powder form, the lazy man in me doesn't want to do this unless i have to.

so can i just pour

that, into my distilled water in place of lye prior to the rest of the STB extraction.

Search for the material safety data sheet (MSDS) of the said product - "MSDS productname".

SWIM did an extract on mimosa. the naphtha was clear in each pull, but after the evap the
Product was brownish and in a syrup form rather then crystals. swim vaporized some and it was very harsh smoke,
Leading him to believe it was not safe to smoke ( he had probably used too much lye,whether or not that makes the end product unsafe is the question)

I'm trying to find a good way to do this syrian rue harmine crystal tek using salt. Well, I have seen a few teks and some of them just say, "I manske the tea and then I base it and then I manske it again", etc....

What is this referring too?

Its part of the Tao of Rue extraction process. The mother of all extractions for rue. I had beatifull results with this compilation of tek's. I think its written pretty clear. If you have anything else in particular to ask, feel free to do it.

Man, that tek is no joke huh?

well, its pretty straight forward actually.its rather time consuming , but if you make a bigger batch they will last you long time. and you can choose what you want as your end product. salt precipitated harmala HCL (Manske) for oral use such as pharmahuasca, or freebase is the other alternative. in any way if you filter properly and you repeat the last steps at least twice, you will have very clean and potent harmala alkaloids. try it, after the brewing the fun starts for me..

Yeah, it kind of seems overwhelming, so many steps and days...but I guess that is the price for a nice product.

It's worth it.

I have 3 lbs. of shredded MHRB coming. What is the best method for highest purest yields. Best tek. Please.

Thanks!

The introduction thread in the welcome area would be a wonderful place to introduce yourself!

Welcome to The Nexus!!!

remedios is going to make changa, he needs some help for figuring how to put this in scale

25 grams MHRB, going to make DMT acetate
50 grams caapi, hoping to make an ethanol resin
various herbs for the base

He wants to know how much changa he could make with those quantities, he has ethanol, IPA, acetone, xylene, and naptha

so basically he has no idea about yeilds or measuring doses etc.

well, yr lookin' at maybe a quarter gram of molecule... so, not very much yield at all... i bet you can read around here a bit & figure all these things out though... be safe man...

Hi, I am sure you could find all the info you are looking for somewhere here on the Nexus

I personally follow this "tek":
(1) boil grounded seeds in a slightly acidic water (vinegar) for 20-30 minutes
(2) decant, filter, save the water
(3) repeat the boil twice with new acidic water
(3) combine all 3 water pulls, reduce by boiling it down to a "managable" size;
the size of about 50ml / 1 shot works for me (no problem swallowing this amount)

Hi all. This is my first post. a friend of mine was wondering about the ammonia wash and if it is necessary? what is in it prior to the wash that can hurt you(if anything)? Any input would be greatly appreciated,
