was thinking of using 69rons tek but his says use 100 grams, can you scale it up to say 500 grams?
Also, can you switch out limonene for xylene (pretty sure you can).
Thanks

The 100g seems to be a good amount to work with. It just depends on your container sizes and equipment. Just make sure you have the right equipment before you start. Xylene will yield less than d-limo but if xylene is all you can get then by all means use it.

Larger amounts STB had a lower yield than smaller (up to 100grams) in my experience with the same cactus material and the same procedure.
You could rehydrate the cactus with a large amount of water, basify that, and then do a sludge/solvent extraction as shown on a vid which circulates around the net. That person used 400 grams of powder.
Boiling/straining it down into a concentrated tea and basifying that, will make it easier to handle and is less prone to emulsion problems, but takes more time.

yeah i was thinking make a big tea from 500grams, strained and repeated a few times, filtered, reduced, basified, pulled.
Cant see an issue there

Spot on Eluna.... Dont use Rons tek for such large amounts, its just too messy with such a large amount of solvent needed.
Pressure cook in batches and then reduce the collected tea down to a few hundred ml. Might take a few days but will be much easier to handle
