Thanks for the suggestions. Yes the hot water was probably the problem! I've added it after doing three pulls though so most mescaline should have been extracted by that point.
I shook the funnel vigorously for a minute. Please note I did this backsalting extraction several times in the past and I know it takes some shaking, but gentle shaking, swirling and inversions are enough. This time I shook a lot and no change occurred.
As for the indicator, this is not a problem. Note that although it is an irritant in macroscopic quantities, only about 0.1 ml of 0.2% solution is used, that is about 200 micrograms in the whole batch.
...and I do the dry acetone washes anyway, this removes both excess acid and the indicator as well.

Guys, I've decided to put this topic to sleep, consider it to be dead, please go to STB Mescaline Extraction TEKNew members without access to new topic with interest in this TEK can use this topic Acceptance of the fact that our reality is not real doesn't in fact mean it is not real. It just leads to better understanding what real means.
