ok so I learned the hard way that xylene really cant mix with anything plastic, AT ALL. I did a stylized extraction successfully but Im a little scared to mess with the end product because wwhen I went back to do my dishes I noticed my turkey baster had caved in on itself in a matter of hours. Im almost certain I got some sort of plastic residue in my final product. Whats the best way to clean this? And so everyone knows I used vinegar to pull the mescaline from the xylene. Also I found that shaking the xylene with the cacti soup is incredibly pointless. If you roll the jar slow enough and long enough you definitely get alks and you dont have to deal with 1-2 day emulsions
Using recreational drugs, including psychedelics, does not give you character points, it's not a means of fighting the system, it doesnt make you a shaman, and unless you actually get out and see the world - it wont give you any deeper insights into it. Can psychedelics bring about these qualities in a person? Yes, But they need fertile ground. What does this mean? Never stop filling youre head and never stop fighting. Otherwise youre just another wasted mystic sitting on your couch getting high.

you dont know youre on a leash if you stand by the peg all day

I would just eat it.

the baster was probably polyethylene. xylene softens and expands pe but does not dissolve it.

the "plastic at all" statement isnt quite true, HDPE tolerates xylene pretty well as does nylon, but true enough, xylene is hard on most polymers, but it does not dissolve many.

If you felt obliged to clean it for sure, you would redissolve the mescaline acetate in mildly acidic water, basify to 9.5 or higher, reextract with xylene and then salt out with with your chosen acid water. sure to lose some.

its always nice to go back to the basics... the first bonifide documented with pictures and repeated mescaline extraction from san pedro was nanook's, 2002. Nan's extraction

and then building on that and with nan's help, the first straight to base (2003), using HCl to salt, extraction was mine. I still do it just like my tek despite all of the modifications and advice people have added over the years. I did a big one a few months ago, works great. I do use square HDPE carboys from usplastics now instead of glass.

foafs advice is good

or use a different salt form that freely crystallizes and do a re-x a time or so
