I posted last night while doing my acid boil on some acacia, and I just wanted to post a pic of my first 3 pulls. If you notice, the yield of each pull went up. I added some salt before 3rd pull, and I didn’t know if the salt played that big a role, or would it have followed this pattern anyway? Would it make sense to just add the salt on the first pull?

I do think the salt helped since it is supposed to 'saturate' the solvent somewhat so the spice has an easier time crashing out (I might be wrong though; I'm not exactly an expert on the subject).

Nice pulls though! Weird that the second pull was more bountiful than the first. I imagine you did a 4th and 5th pull too? It'd be neat if the next pull yielded more than the last again, and the pull after that yielded, again, more than the last one etc... :p
 
I did a 4 th and 5th, and it actually looked like a curve where 3rd was most, 2nd and 4th were next and first and last pulls were smallest. Just a weird observation. Next time I’m going to add salt on first pull to see if I notice a difference.
 
Another observation was that the first and last seemed to have the most goo. What color does the NMT goo usually end up? It looked close to jungle spice when I went to scrape it out
 
A rewash and slow precipitation on 1.25g of mixed acrb and MHRB spice. Was very clumpy, orange and yellowey color to start with. The mimosa half was 2 months old. Precip was 5 days in cupboard and a day in fridge, day in freezer. The large crystal on the knife weighed 200mg by itself. Whole wash came out at .75g.
