Fairly big, yellow crystals floating, possible to evap the nap and leave the good stuff?

[asmallhouse]

First off I wanna say that I'm new to this. I've done two extraktions so far, one a week ago that ended in a big nothing and one yesterday which went okay. Only 50g mhrb since I didn't want to waste any material would I fail again.

I've done thre pulls so far, doing it by the book with pre-evap and so on. But so far I've only been able to harvest one of the jars, which gave me 250g of nice white and yellow crystals. I haven't been so lucky with the other two, though. They got big crystals floating around in the naphta and I don't know how to get them out of there. I think I know why the crystals are floating around (different containers, amount of solvent, etc), so I don't need help with that.

If I were to leave the two containers in room temperature, letting the nap evaporate, would that also diminish the yield? DMT won't evaporate, right?

I've also been thinking of by using a pipett try to collect as much of the crystals that I can in a separate jar, and the evap that one? I'd imagine I'd lose less good stuff that way, am I correct?

Sorry if these questions are basic, but believe me, I've spent amazing time on google during the past week, lol.

Any ideas? Please no coffee filter solution.

1) 250 g!?!? From 50 g MHRB? You must be a magician and or alchemist.


2)
Ummm...dmt doest evaporate.

That's the whole point of evaporating a solvent off. It leaves the dmt behind.

I'm pretty new to this too, but why no coffee filter solution? Isn't this a good solution?
I don't think you will lose any of the crystals by evaporating the naptha.
But don't take anything from me! I'm really new to this so better take advice from the experienced people here

Okay, evaporating the jars seems to melt and make my crystals vanish in thin air. Not enough dmt in the yellow stones perhaps? Room temperature, neither hot nor cold.

I have now put the jag in the fridge. Would it be a good idea to scrape the crystals off the jar (after you empty it of solvent) and instead letting them dry on a piece of paper or a plate? I suppose a small jar that is evaporating gets quite moist, which probably isn't a very healthy envoirment for small, unstable crystals.

Thoughts?
