Lye contamination will look like dark brown/black dots/smudges. This won't happen if you are careful with your pulls. Congrats @eastlancsguy on 2%. You got a pile of Gold (the best stuff) Mimosa is the way to go (if you can find it)  Thanks Cyb! My friend is super happy with the results. He tells me he was really careful with the naphtha pulls and didn't pick up any of the base soup, so Id be really surprised if there were any contaminants. This is a really great tek mate, once again, many thanks for taking the time to share it.

Can I add 50g of salt and 75-100g of lye to 1.5L of water at the same time??

Ok. Was thinking the heat produced would help dissolve the salt.

I want to say a big thank you to Cyb for researching and publishing this tek . 50gm of MHRB has yielded 725mg of spice in 3 pulls so far. My previous attempt using 50gm from the same sample of source material yielded only 70mg of spice using a standard acid base method  . An added bonus is that the clean up is much much easier.

I just want to say a quick thank you to Cyb for putting this up. I am NOT good at following instructions, but I feel like my 8 year old niece could follow this tek  The format was perfect with the pictures etc and the explanation of each step is really clear. Perfect for newbies! Love you lots

Just weighed my yield with this tek, is 270 mg from 5 pulls typical with this technique? It felt a bit disappointing.
I don't have access to VM&P Naphtha where I live so used a similar solvent that's readily available. (Essence C & F)
Essence C is very volatile so evaporates too quickly when heated, essence F is slower to evaporate than VM&P so I blended both and used a heat bath.
I did 5 pulls on the first day, the first 2 pulls took a while to separate but after the 3rd, the solvent easily reached the top of the soup. I ended up with 270 mg of spice.
The 2nd day, I did another 5 pulls, using more heat and more essence F than C. The solvent came out more yellow, it is currently in the freezer, will collect the goodies later today.
I figured that because I used shredded bark ground up in a coffee grinder, it might require more breakdown of the plant material by the lye to increase the yield, so I'm going to wait a week to do more pulls. I'm guessing about this, it's my first extraction with root bark, do you think this assumption is correct?
Edit: After my second 5 pulls (10 plls in total), the yield is up to 638 mg - I think that I'll just keep pulling until nothing else comes out. I'm guessing the solvent I'm using doesn't have the pulling power.

Such a comfort method. Presenting in the pic attached yellow DMT powder with 1.65% yield from a bark with lye that rested for only 1 hour and a half waxy red DMT with a 1.85% yield from a bark with lye that rested for 20 hours L-dreamer attached the following image(s): cyb.png (1,869kb) downloaded 299 time(s).

Yeah buddy! Way to go! Let us know how it is  Obe love What if the "truth" is: the "truth" is indescernible/unknowable/nonexistent? Then the closest we get is through being true to and with ourselves. Know thyself, nothing in excess, certainty brings insanity- Delphic Maxims DMT always has something new to show you Question everything... including questioning everything... There's so much I could be wrong about and have no idea... All posts and supposed experiences are from an imaginary interdimensional being. This being has the proclivity and compulsion for delving in depths it shouldn't. Posts should be taken with a grain of salt. 👽

If one wants to increase the volume of liquid from 700ml to 1000ml in order to push the naphtha layer into the tapered part of the bottle to make pulling easier, what would be the best way to accomplish this? One by one the sanity steals my gnomes.

Do you mean by simply adding water? because that would work. Disclaimer: All my posts are of total fiction.
