I can't believe people use lye at home. That's so dangerous.
SWIM hasn’t used lye in ages.
SWIM just extracted a ton of mescaline using a food grade STB tech he created. He used edible lime (food grade calcium hydroxide) as the base, edible food grade d-limonene as the NP solvent, and edible food grade vinegar as the acid. The yields are fantastic and NON TOXIC! Plus you don’t need to wear special protection because none of the chemicals used are dangerous to handle. You could extract it in the nude if you wanted.
