Several failed extrations

[Sencala]

Basically I would kill for someone to point me in the right direct.
I have tried several extraction on my own and each time fail miserable. I've gotten to the point where you're supposed to freeze the pulls and after several times I'm received no crystal or anything resembling the crystals shown.

Ingredients I have
Naptha both ace hard wares version and V&P naptha.
A good amount of MHRB powerder ( which I think was the root of my problem)
Clean ammonia
a vast array of jugs/jars with lids, spoos, crock pot, ect
lye not some half and half lye or anything 100% straight house hold lye
I've tried several different tecks on my own a few months ago and failed. SO I figured after all that I'm left with what seems to be all the ingrdients I'd make a post as noobish as it seems and just ask for help.
I'm not chemist or anything just a normal person who became fascinated and the nearly indescribable trip of DMT. So please if you have any advice to give or a link to a teck you think would work for me you'd have my thanks.

Thanks again,
Sencala

No worries, changed my avatar so there wont be any more confusion. Starting to like this message board figured I might as well update it. Ok another quick question. When evaporating it to keep dust out of it would it work to put a coffee filer over. I use mason jars and could easily secure a coffee filter on it. Or would that not allow the naptha to evaporate?

If you don't have a fan, I think it would be better to let it just evaporate and not worry about any dust. Cheers.

Currently I'm letting some naphtha evaporate in a windowsill most likely going to let it sit all night. Not to be crude but it's piss colored. Also how should evaporated naphtha that's ready for the freezer look? Also attempt one failed I'm pretty sure. I got some ice chunks but there were no crystals. Do crystals form on the ice and I took it out too soon or do ice chunks mean there's no dmt in the naphtha?

 

[endlessness]

it should look cloudy when you blow on it, then into the freezer

are you sure it was ice and not dmt crystals? And crystals can form around the ice. Ice = water got in somehow, which isnt necessariy a problem since when you filter/dry crystals the water will just filter/evap and wont carry dmt with it. Dont throw anything away! If your first pull didnt yield anything, evaporate it down further to small amount and put back in freezer again

In any case also check the FAQ for a tip on how to best retrieve crystals after freezing

 

[Sencala]

Thanks for the advice. I let the naphtha evaporate for a few hours then when I blew on it it would get a cloudy haze in the liquid. It's in the freezer now. I'll update in the morning how it's looking.

Sounds ideal. Very excited for the verdict!

 

[Sencala]

Same here. I can't thank you guys enough. I didn't think I'd even get a response. Most forums are like that but everyone here has been super helpful. I just wish I had more chemistry related knowledge to share. All I know is how to grow pot and how to make K2 (that legal/illegal weed shit) lol

This is what was in my freezer this morning. Good,fail,needs extra steps

I apologize for just the direct link but it wouldn't put the picture in the post or just create a link for it.

So I got it out of the freezer and managed to get it to room temperature to start drying. It's a yellowish goo that looks like this. Should I just leave this out and let it dry or is there something else I should do to it?

 

[ragabr]

As long as your naphtha didn't get any base product in it, this will be good! Just let it dry and then weigh out your yield!

I use an old news paper when its in the freezer, there for the naphtha dosent absorb in to the refridirator food and it kinda works like when you would put news paper in wet sneakers to dry them. youll be abel to see, smell, and feel the naphtha on the news paper.

Why not use a watch glass (check Wikipedia) during the room temperature step? They are very inexpensive and are explicitly designed to be used to prevent contamination while allowing evaporation, and the casual observer would be hard-pressed to look at one and see anything other than maybe a contemporary-style candy or desert dish.

You cannot fail with q21q21 white DMT tek, it's absolutely easy and it's hard to fail with it.
