Hello everyone,
SWIM boiled 1kg of acacia bark with 100g of calcium ascorbate and 6.5L of water for 1 hour(lack of water due to size of cooking pot) , filtered through cotton, he then reduced to 1L (was a little worried by large amount of froth on the top) put in fridge overnight, decanted liquid off the top in morning. added 60g rocksalt. and this is what he got

not sure whether to continue with a defat straight away cause there already appears to be an emulsion on top.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
once Swim had an emulsion like that form. Swim added more lye h20 and gave it many heat baths to coax the solution back into something workable. You could try that. Swim ended up throwing in the towel after a few days of patiently waiting for the emulsion to separate. Hopefully you will have better luck.
