Magnesium Sulphate is a good idea and may work well. Interesting read I may try something out....

I still think the best idea is ditch the vinegar soak and switch it with a phosphoric acid one. This will leave loads of PO4-3 ions left over. You could do an H2SO4 soak too but it probably best to avoid sulfuric acid unless you know what you are doing!

So my 6 experiments are well under way.

I have decided to just do a simple STB for ease all in 2 liter bottles.

Bottle 1
100g - MHRB
120g - NaOH
50g - NaCl
175ml - Toluene
(2x 50ml tol washes)
(1x 75ml over night tol pull)

Bottle 2
100g - MHRB
120g - NaOH
50g - Na2CO3
175ml - Toluene
(2x 50ml tol washes)
(1x 75ml over night tol pull)

Bottle 3
100g - MHRB
120g - NaOH
50g - NaCl
50g - Na2CO3
175ml - Toluene
(2x 50ml tol washes)
(1x 75ml over night tol pull)

Bottle 4
100g - MHRB
120g - NaOH
100g - NaCl
100g - Na2CO3
175ml - Toluene
(2x 50ml tol washes)
(1x 75ml over night tol pull)

Bottle 5
100g - MHRB
120g - NaOH
maxium saturation of - Na2CO3
maxium saturation of - NaCl
175ml - Toluene
(2x 50ml tol washes)
(1x 75ml over night tol pull)

Bottle 6
100g - MHRB
120g - NaOH
maxium saturation of - NaCl
maxium saturation of - Na2CO3
175ml - Toluene
(2x 50ml tol washes)

Notes.
I used Toluene because I wanted to see what effect it has on extracting more then just the DMT. It should in theory be better at extracting the plant fats/non polars too.

The difference between bottle 5 and bottle 6 is bottle 5 had the Na2CO3 dissolved to saturation first then NaCl was added to saturation. And bottle 6 is the other way around with NaCl dissolved to saturation then Na2CO3 added till saturation. This was done at close to waters boiling point for maximum saturation.

With the combo bottles 3 and 4 the NaCl and Na2CO3 were pre mixed together in a beaker then added to hot water so that they dissolved together as evenly as possible.

Not all of bottle 4 dissolved and left some NaCl and Na2CO3 in the beaker.

The NaOH was already pre-dissolved into the water before adding anything else in all of the bottles.

The hot bottles were shaken and left to sit all next to each other with a thick blanket wrapped around them to hold the heat in. After about 1 hour Toluene was added to the bottles 50mls at a time and shaken with no caution for emotions what so ever. The tol settled out easily and was separated and the process was repeated. A further 75ml of Toluene was put back into the bottles and shaken again and left over night.

It is now the next day and I just extracted the over night tol from each bottle and combined it into the evaporating dishes corresponding with each bottle.

So in total I have 175ml worth of toluene evaporating in six separate dishes. I also threw another 75mls into the bottles for a third pull and will leave over night. I am going to work up the double pulled stuff soon and recrystallize it to get a yield for each bottle.

Oh and [USER=20786]@joshisom[/USER] I'm 28 years old.

Peace out and Dream on.
