(Newbie here, learned about DMT 2 months ago, helping someone in their spiritual journey)
Would like to have the community thoughts and answers to some questions.
Performed 3 variations of A/B called Minty Love dptek
#1 Minty Love dptek (ML) which consist of 3 days Freeze/thawn acid base (vinegar) then convert to base soup (NaOH), bring soup to 45C, then use n-heptane NPS at room temp to perform pulls (See Reference)
#2 ML + heating acid soup for a few hours each 3 days at 60C (heat) after thawning and re-freezing.
#3 ML + heat + ultrasonic bath 3 sessions 30mins each with 20 mins break for each 3 day
Each Variation: 50g of powder of MHRB
NPS: n-heptane 99% pure
Base soup consists of [ 50g powder of MHRB + 130ml vinegar + 500ml distilled water + 60g NaOH + 90g pickling salt (no caking agent) ]
Freezing Temperature: -22 C (constant)
Day 1
1st pull base soup 45C, solvent room temp, 75ml
2nd pull base soup 45C, solvent room temp, 50ml
3rd pull base soup 45C, solvent room temp, 50ml
Day 2
4th pull base soup 45C, solvent 65C, 50ml
Day 1-2
Post pulling nothing was performed (e.g. water wash)
Post precipitation only removed excess NPS (n-heptane)
Day 2-3
Drying Process 24 hours
Yield not yet available
Scratched crystal pictures partially available
1st picture contains 3 variations with 1st, 2nd, 3rd pull
2nd picture contains 3 variations with 4th pull
All the other picturess are zoom in for each tek variations and the pull iteration.
extract yield qty(mg) not yet available
Observations:
The substance feels like sticky wax. Like if someone grated a candle wax.
ML dptek 4th pull seems to have nothing left.
ML + heat + sonic 4th full seems to have little tiny crystals but doesn't seem to have much left inside.
ML + heat seems to still have still yield crystals on the 4th pull.
Questions:
1) Should the 4th pull base soup have been heated at 65C rather 45C since the solvent was at 65C ? Would it absorbe more DMT but more impurities ?
2) Should a 5th pull be performed by simply looking at the pictures of the 4th pull without calculating current yield?
3) By looking at the pictures any feedback welcomed ! Was the extraction done properly ?
4) Should a re-x and water washer be performed by looking at the pictures? I read that there is some residual base (NaOH), some oils and impurities can make it harsh when one would consume the crystal via emesh (direct freebase ) or vape juice (PG/VG solution). Is it true and should a purification be done ? Which method?
a) re-x + water washing which consisting mixing crystals with 75C n-heptane + water washing and re-precipitate
b) mini A/B which consists of mixing water + vinegar, performing defat (n-heptane), then basify (NaOH), bring base soup 65C perform pull with NPS ( n-heptane at 65C)
5) Based on nexus wiki solubility, n-heptane only keep ~96mg per 100ml of DMT at -20C, therefore the loss should be very small ? Correct ?
Note:
Pictures of crystal after being removed from containers and yield will be provided in the next 1-2 day(s).
Thank you for providing feedback.
