Need some help for tonight

Migrated topic.

I'm wanting to basically cut down the nausea as much as possible for my aya brews. I haven't been doing aya for ages and last night I started again. Cooked 40g caapi and 30g mimosa, made 2 small shots worth. I had little to no nausea from the caapi, but when adding the mimosa it was quite uncomfortable. So I would really appreciate some quick tips on how to reduce this horrible feeling.
 
Do you clean the tannins from your mimosa tea with egg whites? That helps a lot.
Are you aware of the synergistic effects of a few datura s. seeds ingested before hand?
 
ah not tried that. Apparently you can use silicon or something to also remove tannins, have you heard that before? not tried the datura either. Last nights shot of mimosa had so much tannins in, I could feel them stick all over my mouth, hard to wash out.
 
Simmer the brew, don't boil it, such that it doesn't bubble at all but it is on the brink of bubbling. Boiling it extracts more tannins and turns the brew icky by caramelising the sugars in the plant. Strain it while hot, leave to settle then pour off the top, use a tall and narrow container for best separation and make sure to pour slowly.

Also make sure to use an adequate amount of water, if you saturate the solution then some goodies will be lost when leaving to cool/settle, hence why the bottom of the brew has a reputation for being stronger. Using an excess of water also makes it easier to let the mimosa dust settle and pulls out more from the solution.

All in all, experience is the best teacher however. Once you know the ins and outs of brewing it becomes very easy to make a nausea free brew. The method I've described works very well, there is no nausea but it can still bring on a purge, you suddenly start salivating and then it's released which is the way it's meant to be.
 
I've used the egg white tek and it works great. Make sure the brew is acidic and unreduced. Only use the egg white, and whisk the hell out of it as soon as it's in your brew. A paper towel or cloth will filter the egg white 100% out and there is no residual taste left from the eggs.

I'm not sure you can really eliminate the purge from the mouth end, but this will reduce it a bit, and pretty much eliminiate the gastro purge.
 
thanks very helpful, going to start cooking up for a big one tonight. Can't wait to get past the point of the purge, it feels so great after. Apart from when some gets stuck in my nose.
By the way, last night was the first time i've started doing aya since about 3 year ago, and I couldn't believe how much I've got sensitive. I could feel the caapi within a minute, then after 10 it was getting more pronounced and peaked at 30min which is when I wanted to drink the 30g of mimosa, but couldn't bring myself to do it, I was out of it haha

I waited 1hr 30 before drinking the mimosa but it didn't work even though I still felt the caapi well. Tonight, no matter what, I'm drinking it at 30min.

May even have 10g worth of chaliponga as back up.
 
OH, you are drinking mimosa....WOW.

Yeah, your're gonna purge no matter what you do. 30g is quite a heavy dose, like MASSIVE dose. Either you are one heck of a hard head, or you are brewing your mimosa wrong. 30g would put willy wonka out of commission for a long, long time.

I need 25g of really good chaliponga to really go deep, but I couldn't imagine drinking a brew with 30g of mimosa in it.

Have you drank that much before? If not I might suggest starting at 10g (even that is a pretty hefty dose of mimosa).
 
That kinda makes me hesitant when you say that:roll:
I've never actually gone lower than 20g mimosa. I've had some strong trips, but if not for the nausea, I'd go further.
Tonight I've cooked 35-40g mimosa and 30g caapi. used some ascorbic acid instead of lemon juice.

I think that the mimosa definitely needs to go down before the caapi starts to fade otherwise it's not going to work.
I'm definitely cooking my aya alot better than before, with a wiser head and much less fear. Before I used down alot of that awfull sediment at the bottom, which eventually I got pounded by nausea for. (hence 3yrs later haha) Yesterdays aya was pretty clear, but today I filtered through coffee filters a few times and it came out pretty well. Didn't try the egg white thing though. Which later I'll be like "oohhha I should of done it,, I should of done it:cry: )

Blasting off at 12.
Hope all goes well, really want something special from this.
 
Aahhh guess what I did last night, I ended up drinking the mimosa first! :roll:
I was laying there for 10min thinking "mmm wheres the caapi energy?.." So I got up to double check if I actually drank the caapi, but realized I didn't, but downed the caapi anyway. I got nothing but a slight sharpness to vision, but got that with the mimosa alone. So I was kinda gutted about that. what was interesting though, is that with both the caapi and mimosa in I felt no nausea! apart from when I first drank the mimosa, but that was very little. Didn't even throw up, which would of been nice if I had the trip to go with it:roll:
