The teks don't say anything about optimal pH levels unfortunately so I am asking here.
With DMT, it is known that pH 12-12.5 is enough for getting over 95% of it freebased. How is it with harmalas?
According to this thread, harmine should precipitate from pH 7.0 and harmaline from pH 9.8. Is it possible to calculate pH at which, say, 95% harmaline gets freebased?
I have also recently tried harmine/harmaline separation but missed the pH 8.75 point and got to 8.9. I filtered the precipitate anyway and added more base. To my surprise, absolutely no precipitation occured even at pH 11.
I have calibrated the pH meter properly but maybe it doesn't work well or there was no or too little harmaline?? I though rue should contain these substances in about 1:1 ratio.
