Has anyone attempted to use Limonene as a NP solvent for mimosa extractions? Limonene can be distilled from orange peels, and seems to me like it would be a healthier alternative to Naphtha or Heptane... it's non-carcinogenic, and it's not a petroleum product; sounds pretty appealing to me, but I don't know if it would actually work. I think it would be very rewarding to extract DMT using lye I made myself from wood ash and limonene I distilled myself from orange peels... somehow seems more "organic" than buying gallons of solvent from ace hardware. also here's a link to a vendor of limonene products: http://www.t2labs.com/limonene/limonene.htm Any Comments?
The solvent must be non-polar and be able to hold a lot of DMT. You can't make the non-polar solvent too hot (allowing it to hold more DMT) because the DMT freebase would then evaporate. I don't know if it's possible.
