I've been doing a lot of research on how to make an active tea with acacia confusa and haven't found anything tooo promising but I said *** it and went for it anyways. So what I did was I got 20 grams of powdered root bark and probably around 500 ml of water with a splash of vinegar to help the dmt absorption. I lightly boiled for about an hour and then put the liquid to set aside (not boiling) and added a new set of liquid to the same bark.

After I boiled that for another hour, I combined all the liquid and it was probably a little over a liter of water and vinegar mix. I then put in two egg whites to get rid of the tannins. After filtering out the cooked egg whites with a shirt, I put the liquid back in my reduction pot and reduced the liquid down to 400 ml. Which is 4 doses of each one containing 5 grams of acrb. Now I'm going to freeze the liquid then thaw it back out to remove additional tannins.

I just ordered 115 grams of Syrian rue seeds and from what I've read, I'll be taking 6 grams of powdered rue seeds an hour before drinking 100 ml of the liquid/ 5 grams of the root bark.

Basically I'm posting this to be reassured for a pretty damn good journey or for someone to tell me that I need to do something different or for someone to just tell me it won't work. If you can't tell, I'm just now getting into all the extractions/tea preparations and I'm just wanting a little reassurance. Thanks everyone!

Nothing? :/

I never brewed but from my reading at nexus, it sounds like an heavy dose specialy if the acacia is heavily loaded with DMT.

my advice (2 cents) would be : first, try half of this dose and after you can adjust for the next journey.

Peace and cheese. (why cheese , I don't know !)

6 grams of Rue = too much ime. Don't go over 4 grams. Some people take larger doses, but it's usually due to weak seeds.

Secondly, while the acid doesn't necessarily hurt, it really doesn't help either, as the powdered or even shredded material if atleast 3 boils are done, you'll get pretty much all the DMT into the water. And ime the non-acidic Acacia teas are tastier than acidic teas and pretty much are just as powerful as acidic teas. When the tea is acidic, it has a more pronounced taste and smell, when it's non-acidic it hardly has any smell and hardly has any taste, especially when mixed with something like sweet tea or sweetened Lemon Balm tea. A non-acidic tea is very, very easy to drink, mix it in with some icey sweet tea and you're good to go.

Thirdly, i myself usually take my Acacia tea an hour and a half after taking a Harmala or Rue full spectrum extract capsule or Rue seed capsules, and while i'm sure taking it an hour after taking the Rue seed will work, ime i've taken my tea after an hour and it just wasn't as potent as it was when i waited 30 more minutes and then drank it. However when i first started taking Rue and Mimosa, both in capsules at the time, i would take them 30 minutes apart and while it def. worked, i just feel now that it's better for me atleast to take the two plants an hour and a half apart. So just go with what you feel is the right time to take the tea. Usually most people tend to wait until they feel the Rue and then take the Acacia, but i've learned that at about 30 to 45 minutes i'll start feeling the onset of the Rue/Harmalas, but it's not really until an hour and a half that it feels right for me to take the Acacia. So like i said, just go with what you feel is right.

And the egg white thing totally works, it's the only way i'm able to drink a DMT-containing tea, it cleans the teas up really nice.

With the Rue though, powder em' up in a coffee grinder and fill up/pack the Rue powder into 4 to 6 empty 00 sized capsules, depending. If you really pack the Rue powder into the capsules, the weight usually comes out to 0.8 grams per capsule for which 4 capsules weighs 3.2 grams, or 5 capsules for 4 grams. But sometimes i'll pack the capsules a little looser and it'll come out to be 0.7 grams per capsule for which 5 capsules weigh 3.5 grams and 6 capsules weigh 4.2 grams.

Cool thanks for the responses guys. My solution is pretty much thawed out as we speak and there seems to be a white kind of powder at the bottom. Assuming that's just the rest of the tannins I'm going to filter them out and drink up. Would be terrible to find out that was the dmt though..

If pH is acid, i doubt it's DMT. Probably bits of eggs white

Naw, that left over sediment in the bottom is just sediment, the DMT is in the tea. If you pour off the tea the sediment at some point will try to go with the tea, allow the sediment to settle for awhile, and resume pouring off the tea.

Well after trying to pour off the 'sediment' i come to find out it's a liquid. So who knows what it could be. Probably vinegar? But what's strange to me is before I froze it, it was a pretty clear/see through liquid. And now, after I froze it, it's gotten all cloudy. Does this mean I have to redo a tannin removal or what?

 

[Sabnock]

The sediment isn't liquid, it just mixes back in with the liquid. Allow the sediment to settle (i usually do another re-freeze and thaw again) and gently pour the tea away from the sediment. The last little bit of the tea will be the hardest to get without getting the sediment, but as long as you have patience it really does pay out.

Basically what i've found to happen is, when pouring off the clear tea from the sediment, and the sediment happens to pour out with the tea, it will indeed mix back with the tea and will make it appear cloudy. Just allow for the sediment to settle once again, and easily/gently pour off the tea. One can also use some cotton balls in a coffee filter and pour the last little bit of tea with sediment onto the cotton balls, then ring the liquid out of the coffee filter. At this point, it may still have some sediment left over, which is why after filtering i'd let it go in the freezer once more and the remaining sediment should be pretty easy to get rid of.

OR you could just drink it as is, just be sure to filter it if you haven't yet done so as to remove the remaining egg particles and such. If you drink it with the sediment, it might not be that bad honestly. I made a Syrian Rue seed brew once with some egg whites, and while there was still sediment in there, i said screw it and mixed it with tea, even with the sediment it still went down pretty smooth.

But yeah, it usually takes me about 3 separate freezes of the tea in order for me to be able to get rid of any and all sediment. Some will say just to put it in the fridge and the sediment will drop out, but i've had better success with freezing it.
