changa blend q's (caapi specifically)

Migrated topic.

Hello there Nexians! My friend was going to put their first changa blend together soon, and will have at their disposal:

300mg 1:1 enhanced peppermint
300mg yellow FB
500mg orange oily spice infused cannabis (n-oxide? Defo active)
100g red caapi vine
100g yellow caapi leaf
100g chacruna leaf

He wanted his first blend to be fairly 'traditional' and was interested in red caapi's healing properties as well. What would your mix be with these ingredients? He was thinking that he would add 300mg yellow leaf, 100 red, 100 chacruna, and redisolve the peppermint to even out the concentration, making approx 1 gram 2:1 mixed caapi changa. He thinks he will keep the infused cannabis to add to taste though.

He was also wondering what the combination of caapi tea + a few lungfulls of this mix might be like?

Exciting times for my friend, I'm sure you'll agree! Please add any thoughts / opinions on the proposed blend, it will be smoked through a small perc bong if that makes any difference lol.

Viva la Changa! Much peace and love,

ok lets make that 150mg enhanced peppermint he he... More FB on the way though with any luck :D
 
I would skip the cannabis since it doesnt really add anything to the experience and is best smoked alone, other than that it looks great.
 
Glad you approve :D the cannabis was just used to mop up the orange oil left after recrystalising, my buddy smoked some yesterday and it wasn't to kind to his chest, so that is being shelved indeffinitely. The blend will just be red vine, yellow leaf, Chacruna and a tiny bit of peppermint (might miss this out though *scratches chin*) I hope the mixture of different types of caapi work well, I haven't heard much about the red variety, other than it is frequently used for healing, and Terence Mckenna grew it in Hawaii. It must be good if he predominantly worked with it he he

I'll report back when my friend has made the blend and we have sampled it, somthing tells me it will be niiiiiice!
 
For the record the orange oil is DMT with plant fats (read impurity's) that stop it from readily crystallizing.
It is worth ones time to simply recrystallize this orange oil to yeild clean pure DMT which can be weighed correctly.
50mg orange oily DMT will only actually be XXmg DMT and XXmg impurity's.

I would also recommend not using Caapi vine in a smoking blend. This is for the obvious reason that smoking fibrous woody material is not pleasant.
Using plain Caapi leaf can contain enough MAOI properties to affect the experience and be called Changa, but what you will find is that most people in the know will actually perform an extraction on the Caapi vine to yield a powdered Harmala which is then infused into the herb mixture.

Im not sure i understand the weights you have mentioned. 300mg enhanced peppermint has what... 150mg dmt? Yet your adding hundreds of grams of Chacruna and Caapi leaf?

Might i recommend keeping it simple at first. The original pioneers often made 1:3, one part dmt, three parts herb (Caapi leaf was the primary choice, peppermint is often popular as a secondary)

Tho many people seem to enjoy a 1:1 ratio here at the Nex.

Of coarse this is all opinion. Feel free to do as you please. Just remember its easy to get carried away planning what your going to use, and completely breeze over the reality of the proposed plan (i cant imagine smoking grams of fibrous woody caapi vine, grams of Caapi and Chacruna leaf, that might only contain a fraction of DMT and hope for a decent experience).

Xnga blend™
450mg peppermint
450mg Caapi leaf
800mg Washed, recrystallized Freebase DMT
300mg Freebase Harmala (extracted from Caapi vine or Syrian Rue)
Spiritualitymg Anhydrous Fairydust.
 
You can make an ethanol extract of the vine and Evap that onto the changa however... And it works well.
 
Hey Dorge, thanks for the in depth answer as always :D No, my friend does not plan on adding those measly mgs to all that plant matter! That would be a little silly / wasteful, no? I was merely listing what was at my friends disposal... There is some Aya in the pipeline, as well as an alc extration, so all of it will be put to very good use...

The peppermint is 1:1, so 300 leaf contains 150 Spice... This works well, but a bit of maoi action is needed. So you recommend just sticking to leaf then? This is part of the reason my friend odered both...

So its looking now like:

600mg FB (bit more been extracted)
150mg peppermint (smoalked half the other day.)

This = 675mg DMT.

So for a 1:2 blend, in total we would have 2025mg all told, no?
1350 of that being caapi leaf, chacruna and peppermint...

I was thinking mostly caapi leaf, so with the 1275 left after taking out the mint leaf factor (75mgs), I would want 2/3 to be caapi (850mg)
and 1/3 to be chacruna (425mg)

making 2.025grams of (hopefully) scrummy changa... How does that sound to a seasoned Changalero?

Sorry, I am doing all of this on my phone, so it is hard to get my ideas across compared to being sat at my pc... That, and my maths is shit.
 
I just tried this blend:

750mg Caapi leaf
250mg Chacruna leaf
150mg peppermint enhanced leaf (1:1 redisolved)
500mg freebase

So my friend now has 1.65g of approx 1:2 Changa, and guess what?

It is delicious! like REALLY nice to smoke :D, and really packs a punch,this was supposed to be a small tester hit and there were entities in the room (caapi spirit dropping in to say hi?), complete transformation of surroundings and a very clear headspace to work in for about 10 minutes! Best part is I only smoked the equivalent of around 20 mgs freebase?! (60mg of the mix) That much normally has a fairly limited effect. So chuffed with this blend, can't wait to experiment further with different admixtures, this really is some magical stuff, I can only imagine what it would be like with added freebase Harmalas :O

How much would one have to put in a joint to share between 2 people in mgs? I'm guessing a little more than if bonging it? Was thinking of padding it out a little with more caapi leaf - does this sound like a plan?

Still can't get over how yummy it is to smoke, so much nicer than the Changa I bought (don't judge, it was my first experience of the stuff!)
