A/B Extraction Concerns and questions

[dimensional ONE]

Whats up guys. I guess you would say im new as in registration wisd, but I have been crusing nexus for a while now. Couple weeks ago I acquired a whole lot of MHRB, and decided to go with Q21 tek 2 for NNDMT so yesterday I tryed it. Out of 100 gs I probably got about .5. I noticed a couple of things tho. The first pull was in a pyrex baking dish and yieled nearly all of the total amount. The next three pulls were in mason jars and it looked like a decent amount but when I tryex to evap, a lot of the prodect was lost over the.process. I am guessing that it was harder to evaporate the crystals with a fan when it was with the mason jar not to mention trying to figure out how to scrape them lol. The baking dish worked perfect as I drained the naptha, I stuck them back in the freezer tobretain temp. Then I took it out and held it in front of the fan and had no loss of spice. Im wondering if my hypothesis is correct as I have my first pull of 200gs n the freezer and after a hour, theres already so much. I think I will just wait until this pull is done and go for another one. The mix has been basifying now for about 2 and a half hours with the first pull being done at the hour mark of basing. Any comments wouldd be appreciated. I hope this one goes better.

You can pick up crystalizing dishes off amazon for about 3.50 each for 100mm dish. They even have pour spouts so you can easily decant off your excess solvent without loosing your floating crystal.

I would recomend taking your pull, evapping about half of it off with a fan. Evapping 2/3 would probably be better. Put that in the freezer overnight. In the morning pour off the extra solvent and dry your crystals with a fan.

Pyrex dishes work but they're bulky. Mason jars work but that's just ghetto. I believe you would be pretty pleases with a 10-12$ investment.

Thanks bro. I just took out the pyrex and scraped it and yielded about 3/4g...but I have a question again. How dry do I let them get before.I scrape and how much do.I.scrape up. I mean do I scrape to the bare glass or just enough to braze the crystals. It seems like when I scrape down to the glass I get an oily off color substance. Doesnt effect the quality at all, but the appealingness dwindles much. Should I scrape everything off and do a re x on all of it. This seems to be the only problem im having. The first time I scraped them I had white shiny xtals but that went away the next scrape. And I will get the dish. I will order now. Q21 says that evap of solvent isnt needed. Once decanted, I only have about 150 ml in precip dish.

Evap it down to the point where if you blew a big breath on it you can see white swirlies. Pour off your extra solvent after you crystalize it. It'll look dry, go ahead and smell check it. If you dont smell the solvent What I usually do is let it evap another 10-15 mins to be sure. Then I scrap everything out with a razor and pipe tool.

It's a neat folding tool that has a little scoop on it, makes it real easy.

When I'm certain I wont get anymore I warm up some solvent. WARM, not hot. DMT's vape temp is a little fragile. Add some solvent and letting it dissolve. Your impurities will be a brown gunk that's left behind. I like to stir the brown gunk to release any dmt that may be trapped inside.

Go ahead and evap again until swirlies and stick it in the freezer. A bonus to a proper crystalizing dish is you can stick it right in the back.
Where it's the coldest.

What I do personally is re-use my recrystalizing solvent because it's saturated with dmt alread and I'll loose less next time.

After I add the solvent to the crystals, one dissolved, I move the solvent to another dish and then precip? I guess it wouldnt make sense to precip in the same container as the gunk lol

And the recrystal solvent, you mean you use it on the next pull or the next re x .

Ok I just did my re x using minimal solvent. What does the undesirables look like. In my little glass after the spice dissolved theres was a semi transparent brown little like oil puddle/slugde in the bottom if the glass. It didnt stick but moved around. I decanted all the clear stuff off and left this.rolling pile if oily goop in. I blew in it n seen swirlies. Im hoping that oil stuff wasnt spice and the garbage. Im expecting product loss but I need the white.fluff. please get back to me.

The solvent I save I use strictly for the re-x step. Yean typically that brown oil will be you undesirables. In some cases it may contain dmt oxide which is an oil and you can seperate that off by insoluability if you chose. You probably wont see much of that until your last pull.

Man I did a re x last night....this morning I had beautiful white goodness. After my second pull I probably have 1.2 off 200gs. I have another pull in and it seems like there is more than the 2nd. I think a 4th will def yield more. I think the rex of the first pull yielded more than what I put in lol. Im gonna wait till after the 4th to rex pulls 2 3 & 4 together to get bigger xtals. Man this is going well. Ill post pics later after the last rex.

Awesome! I'm glad to hear it's all working out. It is a very exciting time to find your hard work paying off with fluffy white crystals!

Man its awesome. Its really not that hard of work. The work takes like 15 min intervals and most of the time involves sitting. lol...easier than cookie.
