Tek 2 (whitest fluffiest) of Q21Q21's Vinegar/Lime A/B Extraction Tek

in the Non Polar Wash (pull), how long do you leave the Naptha in the Bark Goo before pouring the naptha out in the precipitation container?

Also, if one wants to do more pulls from the bark goo in the upcoming days/weeks, how does he store the bark goo? Do you put a lid on it and put it in the fridge?

Much thanks
 
I leave the naptha in for around 15 minutes using a warm bath to heat it while gently mixing it 3-4 times, after 3 or 4 pulls have approx 95% of the Dmt pulled. So for me storing the bark mix seems pointless for the minimal Dmt thats left.
 
While I agree with Ewok and this is my usual practice for the first pull, I usually do a couple more. The phrase diminishing returns definitely applies though. you really do seem to get the majority of the alkaloids on the first pull, IF you are operating under optimal conditions. I'd say keep going. Be patient. Let your 3rd pull sit overnight and see what you get. You may be pleasantly surprised. Some people may say: "Well, that last pull was only 40mg, so screw it." But if you have a GVG and a good technique, that's 2 possible breakthroughs. Don't get me wrong, I'm supremely lazy, but still... it's dmt. I can't bear to wast much if any. Even if I haven't used any in 1.5 years.
I've been experimenting with the q21q21 tek, and my latest extraction is at approximately 2% yield. It's starting to get a little beige at this point. I usually stop at around 1.5%, but I want to see just how fa I can go with these new tweaks.
 
I tried adding more base and that seemed to push a little bit out, but I think the unfortunate correct answer is probably more naptha.

I don't think the naptha is lost, I just think you need to do more pulls and you'll eventually get at all the good stuff. I think you probably didn't have your mush dry enough in the beginning. You need to fing the line between mushy and crumbly. When you get this tek down, it's a pleasure.

Don't panic. Everything will work out. Whatever you do, don't despair and throw anything away.

As for storage: If you are leaving the naptha in overnight, leave it at room temp. You don't need to refrigerate your base material. It's not going to rot. If it's in a well ventilated area you can leave the lid off, just cover it with something like a piece of cardboard or a stocking. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it's not a bad thing if some of that naptha evaps off overnight. That way, when you pour it off, it will be more concentrated and freeze precip better.
