3rdI said:nope, not a bean, i got a very small amount of dark powder which i didnt fancy at all.
Im hoping it was some poor quality caapi(white), as the tek seems to be easy to follow and many people seem to have had success with it, having said that, i still fail to pull crystals from the Q21Q21 tek after 7 months of trying
i started a run with black caapi so im hoping it will be more successfull, i will report my finding as and when
I think the caapi tek is more difficult than q21's tek, even when it's easy anyway.
If you fail with q21's tek, there must be a problem with your base or acid, or even naphtha. It's very easy tek if you have proper ingredients.
I hope you will succeed with black caapi. Remeber to add vinegar to each half hour boil(If you are doing gibran2's tek)
