First Mesc extraction run down: Q2121/69ron Hybrid AKA QronBD (pics)

[Binary Drool]

So I've done 8x 50ml pulls. Here are the pictures so far. It certainly looks like my solvent is filled with alkaloids.

I wonder how much CaOH it takes to reach a high enough ph?
Did you measure the amount of lime you added or the ph of the sludge?

What are you using to salt it out? HcL, sulfuric or vinegar?

I'm kinda curious to see what you pull out of that xylene. Its yellow for sure, but it will be yellow after pulling all the goodies too.

Good Luck :thumb_up:

 

[DeDao]

Good luck as you continue your process.

No I did not weigh the lime, but I put more than enough, adding until it makes a reaction, 50-75% the weight of the cacti. In this extraction maybe 200-300g of lime.

I know with MHRB extraction using lime it takes around 50%. I've tried less and more.. Always get the same results. Maybe it needs 25% and I'm just being over cautious. In the end you only end up with more stuff to pull from, so its worth it to just know there is enough in there by maybe over doing it a bit. Then again this is a first time cacti extraction and I really couldn't tell you. It seemed that the cacti paste holds more water than MHRB.

Using HCL

Using HCL

Good, thats the most forgiving. If you overshoot your titration, you can evap the excess Hcl.

My first extraction looked like coffee grinds.
But it still worked!!:shock: :shock:

I use dg's method now. simple titration, and dual solvent crystalization - Preparation - Welcome to the DMT-Nexus Works fantastic and gives nice clear/white mescaline needles.

I'm salting right now, I shook the solvent/hcl water pretty crazy, has a lot of emulsion. I did this because I saved 50% to salt again with light agitation, the rolling method which I will do as soon as im ready to separate these layers.
any suggestions on that?
going to consolidate hcl pulls will end up with 100ml. I made my anhydrous acteone this morning, shook a bunch a few hours apart. seems to have settled. But I think I'll A bomb it tomorrow. I have a sep funnel. just waiting on the emulsion to clear up. hope it doesnt take too long. I'm also going to save my solvent and do another hcl pull some time tomorrow. will post pics later tonight.

Heat it up in a simmering water bath the emulsion will clear almost instantly. Its fine for it to get nice and hot mescaline is very stable. :thumb_up:

 

[Binary Drool]

Ive run into a problem.... I'm acetone bombing.. but i cant tell the difference betweem laters.. it ALL looks like clear water! WTF. at least I've only dont this on 50% of what I have. ANY HELP NOW WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED!!!!

 

[Kash]

Well acetone mixes with both xylene and water, not sure what you mean.. The aqueous salting layer should be seperated from the xylene and then evaporated. Then the crystals are cleaned with acetone.

 

[Binary Drool]

100ml of HCL/water/acetate + 100ml the Anhydrous Acetone... I'm only seeing one solid layer of clearness... maybe a fait layer of white mist stuff on top. but its wicked small

 

[Binary Drool]

well, i have 100ml of acetone+HCL/water + alks. and 50ml of just HCL/water+alks. I'll dry both out and see what I get. I got coinfused and went to the Abomb step right after salting and not drying. but with only half of what i have. so i'll dry out the 50water/50acteone+ alks, and the other 50ml hcl Alks. and see what i have whsi will have. will post pics later

 

[Kash]

Yep. You got to dry that shiet. Then worry about cleaning the crystals with acetone.

 

[Binary Drool]

will keep updtated

Yield un weighed 12'' cutting

 

[ipumaestro]

can i has? for noms!

 

[Bezerker]

So whats the weight?

Looks edible to me.:thumb_up:

 

[Kash]

Looks decent. Guessing by the gap in updates that he ate it lol.

 

[Binary Drool]

YUM:grin:

Rock on. Post a report if you bioassay.
