Extraction emulsion issue from blender

Say someone mixed the mimosa bark with the vinegar and tap water, obliterated it in a blender, then added 40g lye to 600ml of solution, then the naptha, and blended the piss out of it again but wound up with an emulsion. What would they have in the naptha if they let it sit for days, blended on occasion, but ended up having to put table salt and let sit overnight in to break the emulsion?
 
Someone should not expect anything other than the results obtained by more gentle mixing. Emulsion is a physical state, not chemical, so someone might expect to have the same ingredients in the naphtha as normal in these extractions.

If the naphtha layer is clear after adding salt to the emulsion and sitting then there's nothing else suspended in it, so there remains only the dissolved substances, someone might find that any DMT in there is in the more yellow form due to having sat in base solution for a long time, but there's nothing wrong with that.

Enjoy your product and maybe don't blend the piss out of it once the naphtha is in there next time, just sloshing and inversion is enough. Better to mix gently for longer than vigorously for a short time.

thanks! Naptha is yellow. Much cleaner than it was. Salt worked super well.
