freeze precip vs. evap

[flyboy]

Anybody else find the visuals more intense and juicy with evaporation method?

SWIM has no problem pulling clean white crystals using the freezer but it doesn't pack the same punch.

Have we already discussed the possibility something(s) are left behind in the unfrozen naptha that would still be there after an evaporation?

After all DMT of old wasn't white, from what i saw it was yellow/orange. Same with synthesized, correct?

incorrect
synthesized is white crystalline in salt form, or clear if free base.
crystals may pick up color from autooxidation in air, or impurities

as far as which packs more punch, unno.
pink is very visual and a bit rough, and clear is very smooth

OK but then you are in agreement spice that is pink is more 'impure' but also more visual.

I've been let down by the white and will evap next time, or do a side/side test..has anybody ever done an analysis of the naptha poured off during a free-precip to see what else is left in there besides the solvent?

Hows the white spice let you down?

I've been a jungle fiend up until now but recently I've been very much enjoying some very pure spice.
