What to do with "goo" from FASI

Migrated topic.

SWIM did STB using 1:1 MHRB:lye, extracted 2x with ~150 mL limo each time. Combined both portions of limo, then added ~40 mL FASI (using 99% IPA, made from 91% IPA + anhydrous mag sulfate).

As expected, addition of FASI created an orange "goo" very quickly on the bottom of the jar. Slow addition of more FASI over about 5 hours, however, did not seem to create any xtals. The "goo" was separated from the limo, dissolved in water, and then evapped in a dehydrator at 145 C.

SWIM's dehydrator has been going for several hours, but the goo is still kind of sticky and, well, goo-like. He thought it would form crystals? Did SWIM do something wrong, or is this how it's supposed to be?
 
no that can happen.....what you do is...take it out..and cool it down and stir it...it should solidify...also i have found its best to collect the dmt fumarate with water...as it seems to get rid of most of the d-limo contamination...while you would think that doing this would negate the good things about FASI...its still much easier evaporating 15ml of water ONCE compared to 150ml of FASW...
 
about how long should it have to wait to solidify?

Currently it's in swim's dehydrator. It's an orange-tinted clear crust that's slightly sticky to the touch. SWIM could probably scrape it up, but he thinks it would be a sticky resin, kind of like crude mescaline acetate. He thought DMT fumarate was supposed to be white crystals?
 
it can be..but seriously scrape it around and stir it..you will see it turn cloudy almost immediately and it should solidify fast
 
Ok - now it's hardened, but still kind of sticky to the touch. It's hard as hell to scrape up, and touching it can leave the impression of your fingerprint. When scraped up, it's easy to see that it's yellow-orange in color. Is this how it should be? Can SWIM do anything to improve purity (like wash with 99% IPA?)

Sorry for all the questions it's SWIM's first time with FASI & he's not sure what to expect
