ACRB TEK 100g "PICS" (Newbie Friendly)

Migrated topic.
AcaciaConfusedYah said:
I collected all 6 pulls, which produced a very yellow nps. I did the mini a/b and then washed the yellow solvent with the sodium carb. To use on the first 6 pulls of the next batch.

The nps from the pulls on the mini a/b barely had any color, but produced beautiful white snowballs in the precipitation tray. :)

I woke up this morning with a good surprise in the freezer.

Nice job, Earthwalker! This is a game changer for the folks who can only find acacia bark, or just want really clean spice without the re-X

That's great news AcaciaConfusedYah , glad it's changed you're veiw on acacia extractions , my job is done :thumb_up:

Thank you for this, it is helpful. I'm planning acrbXTR-V ( my fifth attempt) soon, and now that i found a local source for rue,also looking into aya/pharma/fuma as options.

The pictorial is helpful, this time, i plan to be careful, methodical and settle fur no less than total crystalline success.

(Unless of course, i don't )

I wish you luck my Freind !!:thumb_up:
 
Thanks for the excellent write-up, Earthwalker! Looking forward to giving the backsalt a try.

One quick question... can anyone who has done this tek using vinegar as an acid confirm that the 50-60 ml gets the ph close? I don't have a meter or paper, and Cyb's tek also shows 50-60 ml of vinegar but in 200 ml of water at the acidify stage versus 500 ml of water in EW's. Does the extra 300 ml of water affect the amount of vinegar needed to properly acidify?

Sorry Continuum I didn't see you're question before now but with the 50-60ml white vinegar is sufficient as Cyb calls for 50ml

vinegar in 400ml water in his max-ion TEK ! So if I was you I'd go the 60ml white vinegar just to be safe , it's not going to make a huge differance in 100ml water between the max-ion and this TEK ! Hope this helps :thumb_up:
 
This is awesome, and I'm going to follow these steps, EW.

If I only had access to chromatograph, I'm really interested how much of other alkaloids are present in it. Because it looks very white and pure.

Thanks, EW. :thumb_up:
 
OK, just a quick question, I see you've used some kind of plastic bottle for extraction (looks like plastic bottle from that image), is it safe to use? Would naphtha melt the bottle?

Thanks in advance.
 
Hey oversoul, in the states, plastic containers are ,(more often then not ) marked with a recycling mark. This is a little triangle with a number inside it, usually embossed on the underside of said container. Look for it to have a '2', this denotes HDPE-high density plastic that can withstand NPS like naphtha.

Common milk jugs are HDPE2 and i like to use it because it alleviates my fear of having hot highly basic water exploding in my face from rapid overheating in glass during the lye stage of an extraction.

With 100g ACRB though, you are going to obviously want a smaller container as in Edub's illustrations.

As always, HAPPY TRAILS !:thumb_up:

Yeah I use plastic and I always have ,, like nike24 says as long as it's HDPE it should be fine ,, look at you're shellite bottle it's plastic and doesn't melt , I no there's a lot off nasties in plastic but I haven't had any adverse side effects & I also cannot afford a heap of glass ware just yet so until then plastic it is :thumb_up:
 
It's sitting for good half an hour under the fan at room temperature. Still didn't turn into goo, or other undesirable state of matter. :)

This works, peeps. :thumb_up:

Good stuff oversoul1919 8)

The mini makes a world of differance :thumb_up: also try mixing all pulls together then doing a multiple pull mini and precipe it all in the same dish !!
Now that's a site you will love waking up to !😁

Edit ;; also try using a glass baking dish or even better a round glass pie dish to precipe in as it's so much easier to scrap clean !!
 
Yep. Will do. Actually, it's freeze precipitating in a glass dish right now.

Looks like this bark that I've got is not that high in alkaloids. It will be a success if I get 0.9-1% from it.

Anyway, I've got 150 more grams of it, so I'll have to extract all that I can from it until I try to find another source.
 
OK, I've ran into a problem.

After that first pull, which was only 50 ml, I did 4 more pulls. But, the problem is those pulls didn't yield anything. And solution is still white, and as you said, white solution indicates that there's still DMT present in it (there's some white stuff on bottom of the bottle, and when I shake it, solution turns all white and cloudy).

So, what could be the problem? I did the pulls with hot naphtha, as recommended.

Thanks in advance. :thumb_up:
 
How much bark did you extract from ? How many pulls from the oridganal extraction did you put in the mini ?? and IMO you really should do all the pulls back to back !! If there is dmt in there it should be retrievable !!

Sometimes it's not possible to remove all the fats and there will be a dusty fatty layer that sits up on top off the basic water and wene shaken it makes the solution look alittle white ! Maybe this is the case !! Other then that idk what's going on !!

This is the fatty layer that sits on top of the mini AB





Someone else had a similar problem on this thread post # 2125 official extraction help thread - FAQ - All your basic questions and answers - Welcome to the DMT-Nexus

IME I've never encounters a problem , I have no answer I'm sorry !:(
 
Do those fats and oils collect on the bottom of the bottle when you're not disturbing the mix? Because I do have one layer of white which never comes down, and full bottom of white stuff when the mix is standing still for some time.

If there's no more DMT in the mix, I can't think of anything else than bad bark.

The layer on top is typical of using ACRB and this should be noted in the TEK sorry my fault !!

But the bottom layer I've no clue what that is , endlessness advised another member having similar troubles he advises this.
" as for the white stuff that appeared on your basified solution, can you manually separate it from the basified solution? If you could, I' d try adding that to a small container and separately try to dissolve in warm naphtha.."

Other then that I've no idea ,, but you didn't add salt to the mini , did you ??
 
Doing 2nd 100g extraction. This time, naphtha is very yellow. Previous wasn't so much, and something was probably wrong, giving the fact that this is the same bark. And it also turns foggy when it cools down.

I'll post an update tomorrow or in two days.
