I have a quick question about extraction of harmalas from B. caapi
This is in reference to this tek: Easy Caapi Vine Alkaloid Extraction Guide - DMT-Nexus Wiki , specifically the washing steps to remove NaOH.
It seems like it would be much more convenient to add the vine to basic water, then extract into a nonpolar solvent, and finally add acidic water to get the harmala salts.
Basically, go about it the same way as a mescaline extraction since the salt is desired.
Any reason why most extractions of harmalas from caapi go about it in a similar manner as the one above?
Thanks in advance for any insight.
