Ok so swim makes some batches from time to time. Swim is how I originally learned how to do a/b extraction as well as stb extractions etc. That said I've never really watched him do an extraction all the way through from start to finish. I've since went my own way and have learned my own techniques and what not.
Here's what's going on all of swims batches are dried thoroughly and come out looking good a bit yellow and more powder then crystal yet very acceptable. The problem is that for some reason there is solvent being trapped inside the DMT some how. You melt in in your smoking apparatus and immediately you can smell the solvent and if you try taking a hit the fumes are very harsh and for me at least it's not really possible to smoke. I am pretty sure the solvent being used is heptane
Does anyone know why this is happening? Also what would be the best way to clean/purify this stuff to remove the solvent?
