shaking the acidified DMT soup with shellite removes fats and oils that didnt react with the vinegar, so next with those oils removed, you will basify it, either with carbonate or hydroxide, causing the DMT to now become an oil, which your next solvent may grab. for shellite it may be neccesary to do this step at an elevated temperature, the composition can influence how much dmt it can dissolve readily at a given temperature. hexane boils really easily and throws off a lot of fumes so, consult a tek for how warm they go and how long it should sit while warm. but more or less its just shake NPS with warm basified soup, then seperate, ideally while still warm, and be mindful of fumes.

Im trying to pull from the acacia using the same method I use for mimosa which is heat lie and lighter fluid. Bronson to be exact. Doing mimosa I've killed it that way but only get good with the acacia. Any advise. And yes totally new at this
