Maybe give more details on your procedure.

I had a serious separation problem with my stb tek before. The problem was the naptha and the water was sitting in a cold garage. Your ingredients need to be at room temp. It doesnt matter for the evap tho. Good luck :thumb_up:

If you wanna get rid of your emulsions, make extracting your naptha easier, and make your dmt transfer into your naptha easier then saturate your solution with some table salt (any salt but the iodized one)

Just FYI, I have used Iodized salt with Cyb's tek with no problems

Hey, I've heard of people mixing some salt in with their water to increase yield. I haven't researched the chemistry that goes into a stb tek yet, so wouldn't understand the science behind it. Has it in your experience increased yield(which obviously you must believe it does), and if so how much salt would you recommend for 1250 ml of water? Also, where is a good place to learn the chemistry behind a stb tek? right here on the site?, im goin to look now. Haven't explored i the wiki section much so i suppose ill check that out now.
