Hi, I ordered 50g of mimosa h. and 500g a few days later also. With the 50g I plan to use it as a type of 'test' as it'll be my first extraction. I plan to use: https://wiki.dmt-nexus.me/Noman's_tek.

After that one's done, depending on how my first one goes, I'll be doing all 500g at once using: https://wiki.dmt-nexus.me/Lazyman's_tek

My first question: Glass mixing bowl is necessary right? I found a cheap plastic one but I'm 99% sure naphtha+NaOH+plastic mixing bowl isn't a very good idea, but thought I'd be sure.

Second question: After I do said extractions, is it ready to smoke right away? Like after I get it out of the freezer, is it good to go? I get confused at this part haha

Also I appreciate the help anyone has given me so far, I've had a few noob questions, and probably more to come as my mimosa arrives

Avoid all plastics. This can be found in the FAQ here.


No. You'll want to make sure all the solvent evaporates and then you'll want to wash the crystals to make sure you release any trapped solvent. Again, all in the FAQ. https://wiki.dmt-nexus.m...hould_I_wash_my_spice.3F

woops haha, sorry! i read threw 90% of that, very very informative and I didn't even know it existed lol. One thing I'm not sure of is..
I currently have 3 jars in my freezer, they are forming white balls of alkaloid i supose on the bottom, when I dump this threw a coffee filter, do I then put it in something to evaporate? I read that I should put it back in my jar of basified water/bark, but after today I will be done with it, I'm pretty sure.

hello blernster

when you take your jars out the freezer and filter the solvent you can either put it in a dish to evap, to see if any DMT failed to precip, or you can save the solvent for your next extaction, personally i would save it.
