SWIM baked baking soda for 2 hours and added 1/3 of water to jar of dmt rich naphtha with tea spoon of baked baking soda and its not pulling any fats or gunk from naphtha, plz help
 
The sodium carbonate wash will not always produce an observable change. Yellow naphtha is perfectly fine.

Sodium carbonate washes are primarily intended to remove any lye and plant matter that may have made it into the naphtha pulls (unlikely, but better safe than sorry). They are not necessarily intended to remove fats/plant oils. ACRB hardly contains any fats or oils to begin with.

If you want to purify further do a back salting.
Or recrystallize :thumb_up:
SWIMS acrb extract doesn't crystallize, when he puts his goo into fresh warm naphtha it turns clay like.
Recrystallization could remove some of the NMT which causes this.
So should SWIM mix his gooey dmt into some warm naphtha and freeze again?

Read the recrystallization thread on the wiki for more detailed instructions. The naphtha should be hot; warm naphtha will not work in the same manner.
 
Quoting the post above you is entirely unnecessary.

Soda carb washes dont remove oils or fats, only base soup contamination. Ive never had soda carb wash ever make my extracts any less yellow. Best bet is to freeze precipitate it, then re-x it and then freeze it again. It should be pretty clean.

Perhaps, but so is restating a point that was already explained earlier in the thread. :p
