I'm new, greetings from Italy!
This is a quick swims extraction report.
He used 100grams of self powdered MHRB , blender reduced it in a pretty fine pink dust.
After acidifing deminarilized water with lemon juice (pH about 2.7) he added the powder, boiled and filtered 3 times.
Then the acidic extract was reduced to a dark red 1 liter solution.
A defatting attemp was done with xylene but emulsion was fucking annoying a swim had to warm up and add table salt to dissolve slowly the emulsion.
Defatting wasted a lot of time and seemed to be useless, no more defatting was done.
Swim used a separatory funnel to separate xylene from the useful acidic solution and added a few spoons of NaOH until he achievied pH 13, solution turned black and smelled fishy, to this about 50 ml of warm hexane was added and the mix was shaked a lot, another bad emulsion appeared but less stable than the previous one.
The hexane layer was separed from the rest and two more extractions were done.
The collected light yellow hexane was reduced by boiling to less than 50 ml.
3 polar washes with weaky basified water were done to clean it from polar shit.
Evaporation left a light yellow powder with a strange and strong smell (one of swim's friends said him the smell reminds piss). Swim tasted a tiny bit of it with his tongue, it was incredible bitter and burned as hell.
The questions are: DMT shouldn't burn like that, are 3 polar whashes not enought to clean the spice from NaOH?
And...
Why noone talks about acidifing with lemon juice?
The last one
Why emulsion were so annoying? Should swim filter better? He used only a 100% cotton white t-shirt.
pics will be posted if can be useful.
