is there a potency difference between harmalas precipitated by salt (Manske) and those precipitated by a base agent? The yield difference is huge, can we say that the spectrum/potency is also different?
There will always be some extra weight to account for the extra salt molecules. The potency depends on how much salt was used during the manske. The more salt contamination, the weaker the potency.
In the Tao of Rue it outlines the different salt ratio's and their outcomes. I prefer the Phlux-'s variation for the final product after many, many filter sessions. The potency is on par if not better than with freebase and since it's in salt form, it hits you a lot faster. A little bit goes a loooong way.
If you want to verify the dosage and account for salt contamination, it's best to start out with a known amount of pretty clean freebase harmalas, dissolve them into a small amount of warmish/hot vinegar and then perform the manske. This will give you a rough estimate as to what you're working with.

BTW, I find the mentioned 30mg for maoi-functioning rather small, where did you get this info please? In practice I work between 1.5 - 2 mg/kg for maoi purposes.
As Jamie said in the previous post but I just wanted to reiterate, sublingual dosages and oral dosages are two completely different animals. When dosing sublingually, especially with pure harmala hcl, it doesn't take much at all for the effect to kick in. It typically doesn't last as long as if you had taken them orally though. Sublingual harmala usage doesn't do anything for oral spice as it never really reaches the gut but it does potentiate other routes of administration.
