I plan on basically following the iso dry tek posted by Jamie. I was thinking of a few mods. Let me know if there are any problems with the below ideas.
I have 28 grams dried chaliponga. I added approximately 300 ml near boiling water to a tupperware and soaked the leaves to moisten them. I threw them in the freezer last night.
I plan on thawing them out and doing three 15 minute boils with 1 liter of water with 3 tablespoons vinegar per pull.
Each pull to be filtered through a single and double coffee filter.
All three pulls will be combined and reduced to 300 ml.
This will be defatted with 3 pulls with xylene and 2 with naptha.
To the 300 ml chali tea I will add freshly made sodium carb till no more fizzing takes place. Ie vinegar neutralized.
The tea would be reduced further till a small amount of syrup is left.
And equal volume of sodium carb would be added and mixed adding water if necessary to ensure even blending.
This would be dried to a powder and added to a flask.
At this point I am unsure how yo proceed. The original tek called for pulling using iso. I am wondering if I can pull with naptha or xylene. I have read that sodium carb may not raise the pH enough for naptha to pull efficiently. What do you all think?
I would then filter the solvent and evap in dish.
Weigh the extract redissolve and impregnate leaf for awsome fun time.
As a noobie I expect a good chiding so let me have it!
