Questions about ACRB, the goo, and solvent

Migrated topic.

Ok so working with ACRB as everyone knows produces some pretty active goo and although I prefer to get crystals I really don't mind in what form it comes in as long as I am able to traverse worlds.

That said, here is the problem I have with the goo produced from ACRB. So ACRB pulls seem to pull a lot of plant fats along with the DMT. Now a plant uses it's fat cells to retain precious water and other nutrients. So what's happening is the fat cells that get pulled over are retaining the solvent and there seems to not be away to remedy this. It becomes intolerable, solvents are very bad when ingested in any form, and smoking the goo induces a slight vomiting every time.

Does anyone experience the solvent being trapped when they pull goo? Because I can't find a thread anywhere that is talking about this.

I am aware of ways to remove the fats, like doing a reverse A/B tek or using Zinc Etc.

So when doing a reverse A/B extraction although it yields a more powdery white product there still seems to be solvent trapped inside that spice as well.

Does anyone know of a method of pulling from ACRB that does not give a finished product that ends up containing solvent trapped inside?

Thank you in advance for any input on this subject
 
When doing a mini acid base it is very unlikely any plant oils are pulled too it is more likely that its just a bit of NMT. NMT can be a bit sickly ime.. Edit: It certainly wont be plant 'cells'..
If you are concerned then I suggest a slow recrystalization so do the mini acid-base then dissolve in solvent and let it evaporate so the alkaloids precipitate then place it in the fridge then the freezer. If you really want you can do a final purge with IPA by dissolving the final extract in IPA and leaving it to evaporate at room temp.
It could also be a dirty solvent leaving residue did you do an evap test beforehand?
 
Smell, taste, and it upsets my stomach. A friend of mine also experiences the same thing his spice also also comes out with much solvent trapped inside.

I seem to be getting the clear oily outcome.

I have tried 3 different solvents all with the same results
I have used Xylene, Heptane, and Toluene.

I did not do an evap test before hand, I'll gave that a whirl.

IPA? I know youre not talking about the beer.

:d

IPA = isopropyl alcohol. 91% is okay, but 99% or greater is much better but harder to find in stores. Easily acquired online though.
