hello

sorry for the long wait.

ok the tek is going again and i just finished it up and im letting it cool but something interesting came up

oh by the way

2 sets of bark, one prepowder one whole bark ground. 25g each

50ml vinegar 5% each

added 250ml deionized water, allowed to boil for 30 minutes each

slowly added 70g of magnesium sulphate (140g total)

did them each in order both are sitting around to cool

now added 2 tablespoons of lye with 30ml of water solution to each

now hear is the interesting part, both soups thickened significantly after adding the base and the stuff is forming white veins in both, not salt white but whitish yellow in the thickened mass.

so the question is can magnesium sulphate drop out of suspension based upon ph? the amount of white doents look anywhere close to 70 g but it is very visibile and im wondering if i should make the solution even more alkali.

anyhow ill have my first results from these two pretty soon, ill let you guys know what happens.
