Hey guys! Nice to meet you

Hey guys,

I’m new here, i’m 28 and tried DMT a few times but only for fun, then i got spiritual into psilocybin and LSD and damn!! so i went googling to try and get some DMT and finally got to this forum and all your solutions. i’m trying to extract DMT with Carbonate Soda/D-Limo and Distilled water to get a freebase (no acetate i need it for vaping). I know FASW method with fumaric acid, i have 100g of dry inner root bark of Mimosa, but as the first time i didn’t know it was so hard to break into powder.
so now i have this situation, i had to put more D-Limo into the solution to get the mimosa properly drowned into solvent. I’m doing it good? do you have any feedbacks? i choose this simple method because it’s simple and im very very curious to approach it with spirituality

Welcome to the DMT-Nexus!
I never tried this tek so I can't advice.
thank you for the fast reply! if it’s not too much to ask, which is your favorite method of extraction? i’m so curious to know more and more ahahah
 
Hi, welcome!

What did you do to your extraction thus far? And what are you planning to do next?

Much of what you need to know will be here:

Sodium carbonate might not be a strong enough base to get a proper yield from coarsely powdered bark without several freeze-thaw cycles, and a dash of vinegar to start with.

All the same, if you mash it all around with a fork so that the contact between the solvent and the bark paste is maximised, you may stand a chance of pulling something.

I'm a bit concerned that there appear to be several larger chunks of bark in there. I think you should have put a bit more effort into the powdering process, or used stronger base like sodium hydroxide.

What you can do is, after draining off the limonene, add some calcium hydroxide paste, which converts much of the sodium carbonate to hydroxide, along with forming calcium carbonate (chalk). Let this react for a while before making more pulls with fresh limonene. Be careful if you do this, as the sodium hydroxide which forms may be significantly more corrosive - wear proper eye protection.

While the paste is resting you can try retrieving whatever yield there may be from the first limonene pull, using FASW if necessary, although if you can get acetone I'd suggest to use FASA since the formation of DMT fumarate in the limonene is somewhat more definitive than evaporating FASW and wondering whether there's any DMT in there.

If you can't get hold of lime, you would probably be better off having done an A/B. In any case, we can still progress with the extraction, exactly how depends on the materials which you have available.
 
Thank you for your reply, i saw that sodium carbonate is strong enough but it’s what i saw around before i got to know this forum, they are approx 1cm square chunks the biggest, i didn’t know it was so hard to break apart (lol).

So first of all i smashed 100g of mimosa and mixed it with 100g of sodium, and then added a few ml of distilled water to get it starting, later i had it rest for 1hr and then i pulled the d-limo and mixed well for 2-3 mins. now i smashed more the paste with a fork and mixed for one minute kinda, im going to break it apart and mix it every 2hrs for 24hrs. i hope this goes well to be honest.
i want to use it by myself by vaporizing it with a dynavap

i have almost 1kg of sodium carbonate and 500cl of limo now
 
Well, I admire your enthusiasm but would advise better preparation next time!

How will you be preparing freebase for the Dynavap? [I've heard the name but am not familiar with the device itself.]

It may be advantageous to get hold of a few more materials, unless you can provide a more exhaustive list. Do you have fumaric acid, for example? Not that it's wholly necessary - you can use white vinegar instead; it would in fact be advantageous for assessing your first pull, as it shouldn't leave any residue when evaporated unless there's DMT in the limonene. [Just be sure not to bring over any sodium carbonate particles by mistake.]
 
yeah i think i need to be more calm next time but since i wanted to try and i think that’s the best thing to do. but yeah i will collect feedbacks for sure and if i can get something back to the community i will be happy to do it in the future.
i don’t have fumaric acid right now but i can get my hands on it for sure.

So my list for this time is:

1KG of Sodium Carbonate
had 1 LT of limonene (now it’s half)
2 jars 1LT
1 jar 200ml
turkey baster
and razor blade.


for the freebase i wanted to let the limonene evaporate and then scrap off the resin out of a plate then if needed i wanted to clean out the DMT with ethanol
 
limonene started changing color to a clear yellowish kinda color but still clean and trasparent, can i sleep tonight ? ahahah

Limonene will take ages to evaporate and will make everything stink of oranges. Also, there's a strong chance your current method will yield nothing, wasting all that limonene. Limonene can be recycled almost endlessly.

Get some distilled, white vinegar and follow the instructions in Q21Q21's tek:
Seriously, do not waste your time with trying to evaporate limonene.
 
thank you so much;m, actually this method required vinegar which i have but later i discovered (maybe im wrong) that acetate can’t be vaporized

Read what Q21Q21 has to say about that!

In any case, converting freebase back to acetate is straightforward enough with the use of sodium carbonate and some kind of reasonably volatile solvent (acetone, ethanol, isopropanol).
