Amor, how did your glycerin/water tincture pan out?

amor_fati said:SWIM had/is having an incredibly powerful experience from two sets of 6 drops THH (12drops, aprx. 42mg THH OAc− [abbr?]) and two sets of 5 drops spice (10drops, aprx. 23mg spice fumarate). He can now explore lower doses of spice to find an amount that would allow him to walk around and enjoy the outdoors (i.e. mescaline-like).
Yeah a filter would have worked if it was pre-wet but swim was afraid of losses which in hindsight is pretty funny because it was all lost :d Swim is pretty sure he had acetates, they were a slow moving goop which had to be scraped and had no visible solids. It tested neutral and when the paper dried there was a little green indicator, so maybe a little freebase was dissolved/suspended(?) in the acetate goo.amor_fati said:One idea for producing a cleaner tincture is to stuff a filter in a syringe and use it to transfer to a new bottle. 10 days seems like an incredibly short period of time for the tincture to go bad. It was seriously basic? Is it possible that during the heat/evap, SWIM may have produced a bit of freebase (assuming what SWIY had wasn't necessarily pure n-oxide)? This would account for floating particles if the amount vinegar used was too small.
Swim wouldn't spray it in his nose when under the tongue is just as easy. Yeah thats true if more than 3x pumps are needed any space taken up by air bubbles won't have a great effect overall, and since it will be sprayed finely and absorbed quickly the few extra pumps wont be a problem.amor_fati said:That's the big challenge SWIM's been considering, finding a spray pump that's accurate. The amount in each spray should be about two drops worth, but 6+ sprays would likely be a bit much in the nose. It may be bearable under the tongue, though. Also, since a pump contains such a small amount, over and underdosing due to the mechanical limitations of the pump shouldn't be a huge problem.
7.9 | Documentary) like it was the most significant thing he had ever seen. Nature docos especially high quality ones are good for that. Next time it'll be 50mg spice and maybe some theobromine taken an hour before so we can lower the amount of rue needed because does seem to have stomach effects. Comparing it to his windowpane trials the windowpane did taste worse but did have a greater effect, now swim believes this might be because the maoi and spice were taken together not 20mins apart, anyone have any ideas?. Did anyone else notice n-oxide has some taste similarities with golden syrup? Weird stuff.mumbles said:amor_fati said:One idea for producing a cleaner tincture is to stuff a filter in a syringe and use it to transfer to a new bottle. 10 days seems like an incredibly short period of time for the tincture to go bad.

Dissolve in distilled white vinegar (5% acetic acid), converting to an acetate salt, by shaking vigorously and submerging in a hot-water bath.
Evaporate contents in a food-dehydrator at a temperature below 39°C, with the opened bottle stabilized as close to the fan as possible.
Yes this works well, the suction created by swallowing while pressing the tongue down kinda draws some of the tincture drops towards the throat, and even if they make it there it will still absorb but the placement of the tongue to avoid tasting it is still very difficult/impossible. Once you taste it saliva just wells up so swim even considered wrapping his tongue in plastic wrap haha. Another important note is to not drink anything for 20mins after the drops have been administered, just to be sure nothing is washed down to the stomach. It seems that with a straight vinegar tincture the harmalas can be tasted even without apparent actual taste-bud contact (the tongue could be on the roof of the mouth and the head tilted forward and this still happens), more along the lines of the acetic acid fumes one experiences.amor_fati said:SWIM is absolutely convinced that technique is the most limiting factor in linguahasca. He's thinking that the best way to describe how he now does it is to administer sublingually and make like you're going to swallow the tincture but sort of prevent it with your tongue. Just keep swallowing while attempting to prevent the tincture from being swallowed. Do this with about 5 drops at a time and administer the next 5 almost immediately.
Trickster said:For those interested. Recently SWIM tried linguahuasca with DMSO. She is quite hard-headed and for adequate inhibition it takes at least 200 mg of THH. Having had a terrible experience with 200 mg of spice + SR extract, this time it was decided to take only 50 mg of spice with possible 50 mg redose later.
To avoid heavy chemical burn from concentrated vinegar used by FV, 200 mg of THH tincture were evapped and dissolved in 15 drops of DMSO. There was no problem to keep it sublingually for 5-7 min. Aside from some feeling of warmth there was no taste. FB DMT was also dissolved in DMSO and taken sublingually. Its burn was unbearable and in 3 min or so SWIM was forced to partially spit it and partially to swallow it. The onset was fast, 5 to 7 min. If it were not for the DMT burn the whole experience would have been very good.
In an hour SWIM redosed with another 50 mg of spice combined with 70 mg of caapi copy, both dissolved in DMSO. This time the onset was even faster. It was kind of a rush that started in less than 2 min. Very strong and beautiful.
In an hour SWIM redosed again with 50 mg of spice alone dissolved in DMSO. There was another quick rush and another 50-60 min of bliss.
Now SWIM is looking for something to convert DMT FB to because she has got a terrible burn from DMT FB dissolved in DMSO. Fumarate is not an option because there is no fumaric acid that she can get hold of.

q21q21 said:SWIM also is very curious to try amor-fati's technique or "Mucosahuasca" it makes much more sense now it has been explained (at least theoretically)

Trickster said:Is there a comparison of sublingual absorption efficiency of various DMT salts? FB is too harsh for SWIM to keep sublingually long enough.
amor_fati said:Trickster said:Is there a comparison of sublingual absorption efficiency of various DMT salts? FB is too harsh for SWIM to keep sublingually long enough.
SWIM manages the same strong effects with acetate and fumarate alike. He doesn't hold either under his tongue for any length of time, really.
Trickster said:Could you be more specific? How long would be enough? Is it OK to spit harmalas and spice after a certain time without a significant loss of goodies?
plumsmooth said:I wonder to what extent a lozenge, or hard candy, would undermine the sublingual goal. I mean being that those membranes are located not only under the tongue but also around the gums, I wonder what the ratio of sublingual absorption to swallowing, and hence stomach absorption, would be with a hard candy/lozenge form? It just seems it would be nice to mask and or flavor the alkaloids in a candy form whereby one could suck on it for a while thereby receiving both the sublingual and some swallowing of juices.
