Rue to separated freebases with less fuss.

Just finished another run with this method but I changed a few things:

The initial 3 hour boil reduced to 2 hours.
Citric acid used instead of vinegar or HCL.
PH 4 instead of 3.
Barely reduced the first boil, just poured it through the cloth.
Reduced all combined boils to fit a 1.5L jar.

The crude freebase mix is very pale tan color weighing 4.8 grams. This weighs less than previous yields at the same stage but looks more pure. This is from the same batch of seeds as usual. I think the extra boiling time and lower pH pulls more crap than it's actually worth. I wonder if more will dissolve in the acid step before adding salt this time.
