Need more info to help. How much water bark lye naptha? You may have your soup too thick for the naptha to seperate.

Ok, it's solved.

I used 100gr of powdered bark, 100 gr of NaOH, 1L of water, shaked the jar, let it rest for an hour and added 100ml warm Naptha, then i got the emulsion, so i added 40gr of NAoH and 200ml of water, after 10 minutes it was sepperated again. Razz

My yield is going to be bigger then my previous one using this method, it's a combination of 2 different teks, but i think it's a good way to go, after 2 hours theres allready crystals sticking to the sides of my jars, white sticky crystals, i can't wait for tomorrow!

Also, in one jar there has formed a small yellow spot, i don't know how that got there, it was pure naptha...

I'm glad it's solved. Smile

hey dude last time you told me you just wait few minutes and it seperated... i guess it needs time sumtimes... when you told me that i was like wow its really quick Smile coz it mostly takes SWIM like hours to seperate totally... first hour just 2 fingers up then 3 lets say and 4-5 hours SWIM sees that its totally seperated. just to let you know before taking your pull let it sit for at least 4-5 hours after your last shaking so there will be enough time for solvent to totally seperate and you dont endup pulling 70% of solvent. Also when you add solvent for the next pull you dont endup getting a much higher solvent level and be like wtf, like SWIM used to be once SmileSmile

Hey corridor, yea, with my first method it sepperated at once, it looked like it never mingled in the first place, cause i did'nt shake it, and used more water, this time it took me longer, the last pull i had to leave overnight, and i'm extracting it later this evening, it took much longer then my previous, but i shaked it much longer, so that's probably the issue here. Smile
