What solvent of these would be best for pulling freebase kratom alkaloids from a dried lime/crude kratom extract paste ala dmt fumarate/freebase dry tek?

I have dry acetone, heptane, and dlimo.

I'd like to be able to fasa them out of acetone, but thats just wishful thinking, it could work though. If not, would dilute hcl water salting of dlimo/heptane work?

I have a good amount of crude kratom extract that i don't really like that much, mainly due to it containing alot of tannins/astringents. Just want to see if i can salvage some decently pure alkaloids from it just for the sake of experimentation.

I've heard dlimo mentioned as a substitute for HP's kratom a/b with toluene, but if acetone can pull the freebase alkaloids as well that would be preferable. Then it would be as easy as fasa. If that doesn't precipitate, scrap the experiment and try again this time adding dilute hcl water to the acetone with freebase kratom alkaloids and evaporating.

Put simply, are kratom alkaloids as freebases soluble in dry acetone?

How about heptane?

Limo seems like a good bet, but its not the solvent I'd prefer to use (acetone).

In a society in which nearly everybody is dominated by somebody else's mind or by a disembodied mind, it becomes increasingly difficult to learn the truth about the activities of governments and corporations, about the quality or value of products, or about the health of one's own place and economy.
In such a society, also, our private economies will depend less upon the private ownership of real, usable property, and more upon property that is institutional and abstract, beyond individual control, such as money, insurance policies, certificates of deposit, stocks, etc. And as our private economies become more abstract, the mutual, free helps and pleasures of family and community life will be supplanted by a kind of displaced citizenship and by commerce with impersonal and self-interested suppliers...
The great enemy of freedom is the alignment of political power with wealth. This alignment destroys the commonwealth - that is, the natural wealth of localities and the local economies of household, neighborhood, and community - and so destroys democracy, of which the commonwealth is the foundation and practical means.” - Wendell Berry

might want to try and find some high-proof ethanol, or anhydrous isopropyl. acetone may work , though I really have no clue.
