crystals taking too long to desolve?

[starway6]

Im trying to desolve one gram of acrb crystals in a small amount of warm napatha about ...
[30 ml warm clean napatha]... and its taking too long to compleatly desolve?
It this hapening because [30 ml solvent] isnt enough to desolve one gram of crystals?
Do i need more napatha volume to desolve this much crystals?

30mL is more than enough to dissolve 1g DMT, if it is heated enough. Do you have a thermometer?

What is your intention for dissolving the DMT? Are you recrystallizing?

My intent was... to carbonate wash and recrystallize it...

I found out that the stuff that didnt desolve was../[ plant matter] that got through somehow..?
I am now glad i am washing and recrystalizing it after finding the plant matter that got through...

Here is photo after..removing napatha... leaving dirty carbonate wash water...

Note a bunch of particles that wont desolve..

They clump together ..when rubed between fingers the particles break up to finer particles...

I need to be more patient and complete..in future extractions..

A sodium carbonate wash isn't really necessary if you intend to recrystallize, as recrystallization will remove all the stuff that a sodium carb wash would and then some. But for future reference, I have found it is better to have DMT dissolved in a more dilute solution when doing a sodium carbonate wash, and performing the procedure at room temperature, this reduced the risk of losing DMT in the weak basic layer.

Some of the stuff that wouldn't dissolve in the naphtha may also be NMT, as it is only slightly soluble in petroleum ether. If you heated your naphtha and then mixed it with room-temperature sodium carbonate solution, then a lot of the particles suspended in the water may be precipitated DMT. If I were you, I would do a mini naphtha pull on that sodium carbonate solution with all the stuff suspended in it, just to be safe.
