Hey what up NEXUS!!
This is pretty much my first time posting here in the extraction forums... either way, sending everyone out good vibes :lol:
So I tried Lazyman's TEK a few months ago and ended up with some orange-ish goop on the bottom of my pans. I thought it was a complete fail and ended throwing up most of it out, just saving a little of the residue w/ half-mind to check it in a while. When I remembered it days later, it had dried out .. and I sandwiched a few specks between some parsley with some very surprisingly pleasant effects. Too bad I had thrown the rest out though!
The video called for 150g MHRB, but I did not have a scale on hand so I googled quickly and used flour as a conversion substitute, ended up that I used about 1 cup of powdered MHRB which should be around 150g.
The first time I pulled the naptha off (with a turkey baster) (after letting it settle for an hour or two and separate into two distinct layers) I yielded some very clear looking naptha.
Discouraged slightly (thinking it should be yellowish or cloudy) I haphazardly threw in "some more" MHRB and a spoon or three of Sodium Hydroxide.
Pulled the second batch of Naptha, cloudier this time. Into a slightly smaller and deeper glass baking dish.
3rd pull done as well.
Now this video called for a shitload of Naptha, I dont know why, but I ended up using like 3 liters of naptha which took, oh, 2 days to evaporate lol.
Woke up this morning and FINALLY PULL #1 is relatively dry, what do you guys think?
Am I done, just scrape it up? I am a little worried because of the amount of Naptha I used. It was VM&P Naptha though, which from what I understand is ideal.

Now I did not follow it exactly (used plain tap water, only two baking dishes, did not stir for 40 minutes by hand I used an electric mixer for about 10-15 minutes).So, months later opportunity presented itself and I decided to give it another whirl. A friend from another forum suggested I try this video out to do it:
