yellow, red, heaven caapi... does it matter?

[foreversearching]

I've been reading some posts and have noticed that caapi has a color or nickname attached to it... yellow, heaven, etc. I ordered just plain vine from BBB. Im guessing it will still work in aya but does anyone have any tips on how much I should use in comparison to some of these other types? Just want to get a feel for what I should be doing before I choose a recipe/method. Any suggestion for a simple first-timer recipe would be greatly appreciated too.

Thanks alot!

hello:wink:

the following has been pasted from the web. hopefully it helps a bit:wink: I personally cant confirm this but im sure others on here can and will my friend

There are various types of Banisteriopsis caapi available. These categories are divided according to the potency they impart to ayahuasca, rather than being different varieties of Banisteriopsis caapi.


--- red caapi is considered very potent. it is used for making ayahuasca used for healing purposes. the shaman will take red caapi and the patient will take yellow caapi.

--- white caapi is considered moderately potent. it is used for primarily for making ayahuasca used for magic purposes. these purposes include both casting and protecting oneself from spells.

--- yellow caapi is considered mildly potent and relatively gentle compared to other types of caapi. it is used for primarily for making ayahuasca consumed by first time users.

--- foliage (leaves) of Banisteriopsis caapi are reduced to a powder and smoked. however, most people do not feel any effect when smoking foliage.
