I rambled a bit.... there is a TLDR below
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been teaching a friend of mine how to extract spice (see the attached pic
) and he and I decided on salting out the DMT from the solvent with vinegar for a simple resin to apply to "machine balls". (minus the one pull from the picture we got crystals from for fun)
Anyway, well having not extracted in years, I neglected to acquire a vessel suitable to hold and shake both naptha and vinegar, I tried with one but it leaked a bunch of naptha.
As a result of this I left the very-cloud naptha and vinegar sitting together for about 24 hours.
When I returned I transferred it to a better container and shook it, but the naptha did not get cloudy, but the vinegar was very yellow which is usually a good thing.
After separating the yellow vinegar I added some fresh vinegar to the bottom, but no matter how much I shook, the naptha would not cloud.
I then tested what I thought had happened by evaporating both vinegar pulls.
The results:
Pull #1 - 24 hour vinegar and naptha salting - ~1g of golden yellow DMT resin
Pull #2 - 5 minute vinegar and naptha salting - ~10-20mg of solid way substance
I will be doing the same test with my d-limonene pulls.
So this experiment suggests that only 1 vinegar pull is necessary to deplete the VAST majority of DMT from naptha.
How long is necessary? I don't know yet.
One question that this brings up is: Does this "one long pull" method work with hot naptha/d-limonene/xylene/vegetable oil?
Similar to how a few tablespoons of vinegar can dissolve grams of DMT, so can similar amount of the above solvents.
I suppose that unlike the vinegar, these solvents can take of some other not-so-good things like plant oils and non-DMT alkaloids, but is this increased with this method over others?
I don't have the answers right now, but maybe this community does, or could explore it experimentally...

TLDR: While in the tek I wrote I suggest that 3 vinegar saltings should be done for 5 minutes to get DMT from any non-polar solvent, it seems that a single pull over a long period of time works as well or better.
I wonder if the same goes for using the solvent to get DMT from basified root bark...PS:I hope you guys enjoy the pic, I know it have absolutely nothing to do with 95% of the post, haha.
