Evening all...

Well, I just wanted to drop in and say hi.

I have been lurking here for some time and am just about to attempt my first extraction so I thought it would be a good idea to register so I can share anything that I learn in the process.

A little about me, I have a background in organic chemistry and a long standing interest in psychedelics so a DIY approach befits me I think. I hope I can be a useful member of the community and help others to achieve what they are looking for.

Hi, badger. I'm also a newbie and will start my first attempt (brew) soon. Lots of good info on this site

Hey, Badger, nice to meet you.

Hello the-badger,

Welcome to the Nexus, .

I hope you will logon again soon to let us know what you decided to do and how your extraction went. And if you have decided to try your product or not.

There are a number of chemists, biochemists, physicists, computer scientists, biologists, engineers and other professionals - some employed, some still in school. I believe if you choose to become an active member, you will find yourself in good company.

I presume you know your way around and the rules, having been a long term lurker. I'm always happy when lurkers decided to join our ever-growing family, .

I'd love to learn more about you and about how your extraction went.

Again, welcome to the Nexus.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys!
I am currently waiting for delivery of my NaOH, apparently asking somebody to pick some up for you is not as simple as it sounds and results in a bottle of "Double action liquid drain unblocker" because the guy in shop said it was much better than caustic soda, and safer too. Still, you live and learn. I will also be extracting some B. Caapi alkaloids to potentiate the DMT, should be promising.

Good luck and welcome!
