hi nexus, how have you been since i last posted?

anywho...

i have an STB question.
I just did a 120g extraction using 3 jars, 40g each.

I used very clean water, room temp, i used 15ml water for each 1g of MHRB.
I used 1:1 ratio of sodium hydroxide to MHRB.

I did 3 pulls of 1.75oz from each jar.

It looks like a have a lesser yield than normal.

Please critique my method, as I myself have gotten better results using the same thing.

I have some naptha left after i drained it from my dish.
Should i heat it and pull the jars each once more?
If i do do so, should i add NaOh to the mixtures to "jump-start" them. If so, how much ? (each jar being 40g)

Also, where is the dmt that i can still retrieve? In the jars or in the remaining naptha?
 
I am keeping 500mg in freebase form, and i am converting the other 700mg into salt.
Any pro-tips nexians?

I was just going to use fumarate to convert it to salt using 100% pure acetone.

Thoughts?

seems like you've got everything perfect
 
Hi DiMenTion Nineteen,

Did you combine the pulls from all the jars? How much naphtha did you use? I ask because maybe your solvent wan't saturated enough, not allowing everything to precipitate in the freezer. Unless you allowed the naphtha to evaporate beforehand.

I all ways put my jars in a hot water bath for the last couple pulls and get a significant amount more spice. It isn't as clean compared to early pulls, as the heat pulls other junk, such as oils and fats, but nothing a little recrystallising can't clean. I prefer to use the hot water bath, as opposed to adding more NaOH.

By the way, I would suggest using one big jar instead of a few smaller ones. Just less hassle and pulls are easier to do.

Edit: Forgot to say that %1 is not a bad yield at all. I'd be very happy with that :d

I did combine naphtha from all three pulls. I used roughly 15ml of naphtha per g of Mhrb.
I forgot to mention i evaporated to 50% or so with a fan.
(i'm thinking here is where i can improve the most, for my volume i think evapping more will get the crystals to stick to one another)

I shall do exactly this next time; i used 3 quart jars, but i also have several half gallon ones too. I think I'll do 100g per jar. And do two jars.

So I extracted and recrystalized roughly 600mg of fresh white spice
I then used acetone and fumaric acid to turn the freebase into salt.
It looked beautiful, it was scent less. I took a 100mg line in my nose to test, and got
The nastiest drip of my life. It felt in my head like I had snorted glass.
My partner noticed that my pupils widened drastically, but aside from that,
Nothing amazing happened. A slight warming of the back perhaps.
I didn't crush it flat, I only chopped it with a razor blade.
Even If I do crush it, I'll probably still feel like throwing up because of the taste.
Should I use more acetone to clean it?
