I am pretty new to the world of extractions, but my first one went pretty good. I am now on my second extraction. I started with 150g of mimosa hostilis root/bark, vinegar, distilled water, sodium hydroxide, and VM&P naptha. I have a feeling that this one will go better than last.
I started by putting the 150g of MHRB in a saucepan. I did two 90 minute acid washes, and the last one lasted 4 hours.
After each acid was i would let it cool for a bit and then pour off the top into a ceramic dish, then i would let that decant and filter it through a t-shirt. After the t-shirt filter i decant for an hour while the other acid was is going and then i filter through a fine, cone shaped coffee filter. I repeat this on the final extraction and then i wash the mimosa out one more time with distilled water to get the rest of the DMT acetate out of the MHRB.
After this Is clean out the saucepan. I mix all of the liquid with DMT acetate into it again and then boil all of the liquid down to about 300 ml. Then i basify to a PH of 14. Then i do the pulls with VM&P naptha. I used about 20-30 ml for each pull, i did 3 pulls.
The last pull formed an emulsion, but i was out of lye so i couldn't separate all of it. But i freeze precipitated all of the naptha i could get from it and this is the final product. It looked pure white while precipitating, but not as yellow as my last product. (last product top, this product bottom)
I still have not yet weighed it due to my scale being in the mail right now, but i am not going to try it until i get that scale so i can see how much i got out of it. I did get more out of it than my last extraction of 100g of MHRB. I have grown an interest in doing the extractions almost more than dosing. Thank you everyone who has helped me during this process.
