The idea came from SWIMs last Aya journey.
He did something different. Prolonged boiling of whole seeds.
To his surprise this made a big difference because it was devoid of any body load, it also lasted longer.
Some reactions happened after he drank the mimosa, but it was limited to yawning, mild case of runny nose which is nothing strange for all psychedelics. Point is, it feelt REALLY clean.
Because SWIM doesn't want to be boiling the seeds for hours on end each time he trips, he wanted to do it all at once.
This is the basic idea.
-grinding the seeds and cooking it for couple of hours
-filtering
-reducing the amount carefully till there is nothing more left except a thick sludge or a wet paste.
-dissolving it in 100ml ethanol and putting it in a dropper bottle.
SWIM doesn't want a pure powder extract, and doesn't care if he loses 0.1-0.2 grams of harmalas because he has plenty left to activate the rest of his mimosa without any waste of bark.
His sweet spot dosage he can somehow calculate in his head, has worked in the past well after weighting the materials
Couple of questions still arise...
Does the tea need to be acidified? SWIM is confused if this makes the brew more potent or not.
Would that even work, is there a risk that the tea could evaporate just like water leaving nothing behind?
If the ethanol is used purely as a carrier and preservative, never exceding the amount of a couple of mls, could it still react with the harmalas causing unwanted reactions?
Is there anything else that could improve the TEK?
Any help would be appreciated, but SWIM would prefer to keep it simple and "fool proof"
