Ive collected the plant matter, now i soak it in vinegar/metho/h20 for a few hours and then bring it to a boil and simmer for 45 mins and filter it off and then shake the contents with shellite and simmer off again then what

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

What species of acacia? For the most part, they all respond better to an A/B extraction so you can include a defat on the acid phase.

Plenty of info to be found on these matters with a bit of a search on the forum.

Hooray! Away with the earwax. Now I think about it... My Crystals were already crystals but a little bit too yellow. I resolved it in wasbenzine (solvent I use) and some dark yellow/brown residue was left on the bottom of the container. After this wash the crystals were much whiter as before. Also after my washing, I divided my crystals into two classes: B class and C class. B class is the cleanest and is used for smoking. C class is less clean compared to B and is used for aya. Of course A class would be pure white DMT crystals. :twisted:

@Fukingflys - What?

This is random but had to show off my creation to mix my solvent for extraction.

A little. I need to get a bigger pulley to slow it down

I’ll post a pic of the end result. I know there is really no need for my contraption but I was bored and seemed like a good idea in my head. I dislike the mixing part the most of all the steps cause i have adhd so to sit still and twirl a jar around for even just a minute is hard sometimes.

Maybe it's the DMT's way of teaching you presence...
Be one with the jar and twirl in place, if only for a little while...
