Ok, my first run I used PC Pedro, and got a white solid at the bottom as opposed to crystals. I figured it was because I used a mag stir and that broke up the crystals into a powder. (end product in pic below)


I remember before adding the citric acid, there was a small coagulant at the bottom. This morning I put EA in water just to see what these water droplets look like, and the coagulant didn't look like that. It kinda stuck together more. Either way, I'm assuming that coagulant shouldn't have been there, as the alkaloids should dissolve in the EA, is that correct?


Next time I do the Tek I'm going to follow Orchids advice and try a 2.85:1 paste ratio. I'll also ease up on pushing the fresh press when decanting.


Thanks again!
