How can I squeeze some more out of these two jars?

ok, have two jars with 750ml water/50g lye/50g MHRB. pulled using 50ml naptha 4 times each. not really getting much after that.

How much lye can I add(if any) to pull a little more?
anything else(other than jungle, working on that...) I can do?
 
I don't think adding more lye would actually help pull more spice. Adding some warm naphtha at the end tends to pull the last of the goods. Some fats get pulled with it, but an easy rxlztion gets rid of the unwanted material. Hope that helps. Let me know how it goes :)
 
as the original post said I'm already getting the jungle spice in the works...need some help on getting all those NN's are out :]
 
You could pull for your jungle (with a strong solvent like limo or toluene or even xylene)... get all the goods (full spec) then pull from that with naptha or heptane to get your n,n separate from the jungle.
 
agreed with everyone else, pull with stonger solvent, swim uses xylene (he doesnt really like limonene for pulling, great cleaner though!) and he also likes to heat the whole container up to about 55C before he pulls, it seems to help separate the layers and also will be more likely of getting EVERYTHING out. he did this twice one time after doing 4 naptha pulls and found out that the xylene cleaned up everything the first round!

what you should be left with is a sticky gooey yellow/orangeish goop that will have some crystal like appearances in it, swim rextals that about 4 times just to be safe with heptane
