I've finished (sort of) extracting bufotenine from Cebil seeds.
Here are the results:
Ingredients
1. Cebil Seeds 8gr.
2. 95% Ethanol. (IPA replacement)
3. Sodium Carbonate. (washing soda)
Note: There is no way I can get acetone here so I used what I had on hand.
Overview
Complexity: Low
Yield: High (~11.7%)
Purity: Low
Prep. Time: Low (2-3 hours + evap time)
Potency: Unknown
Steps
1. Break seeds in half
2. Toast them for ~10 minutes (they smell terrible, make sure you have ventilation if that's an issue)
3. Grind them well (Image shows process in the middle, you should get a powder)
4. Add 3-5 grams of sodium carbonate to the powder, small amount of water and mix well. Spread it and let it sit for an hour. It will become almost rock solid.
5. Crash it and let dry (you can toast it again for <5 minutes to fasten the process but be wary, it will stick to the surface of pan or whatever you use).
6. Move it to a jar, add 100 ml ethanol, mix, let it sit for few minutes, pour ethanol in new jar, filter with coffee filter. Repeat 2-3 times with new alcohol.
You'll have 200-300ml ethanol total.
7. Let it evaporate
8. Scrape and weigh
Result and Further Steps
If my calculations are correct and I didn't screw up anything, what we get is black crappy freebase bufotenine. I was going to smoke 5ml of it in the name of bad science but didn't have time, so not sure what will be the effects. I haven't used toxic solvents so it won't kill me I guess :? I'll test it out as soon as I have some free time.
It definitely needs Re-X to finish the extraction with happy end and this is where I need advice/suggestions. I have no clue how to proceed because based on my research I need acetone for purification which I can't get. All I have is vinegar, ethanol and maybe naphtha too.
