I know the "what's the simplest tek?" question is most likely to get booted with a "read the faqs" response, but my question is specifically regarding the simplest way for a non-chemist to get a good yield of goo from ACRB.
Sorry but I really can't deduce an answer from the various faqs and wikis which I have read!
Thank you

READ THE FAQS... jk, I've never used ACRB, just MHRB but the easiest is STB (Straight to Base) using Lye and then pull with Naphtha and evaporate the naphtha.

There is no "simplest tek." They all require time, effort, and critical thinking. The concepts are the same in each tek: Convert DMT to basic form, pull with non-polar solvent, precipitate DMT. Try reading about the different solvents and find out which ones tend to crystallize DMT well and which ones that don't. D-limo, xylene, and toluene vs. naphtha and/or heptane is a good place to start researching.

If you read about ACRB and its alkaloid profile, you'd find that it has a much higher percentage of fat/oils/impurities than its MHRB counterpart which is part of the reason why people often end up with goo no matter what tek they choose. If you read about ACRB extraction, you'd notice that many people perform a mini A/B to clean up the fat/oil/goo because, again, ACRB tends to yield goo anyway. Crystals, goo, oil, it doesn't matter. Most of the time it is just DMT.

All this information is available and accessible right here on the Nexus:

Thank you for the breakdown -- it really did help -- and the links too!

Try Q21Q21's .
It seems the most user friendly.

Love the goo. I connected with the Plant spirit when smoking everything I could possibly pull from ACRB. Best I can reckon it was the plant spirit, it was a large ball of roots but had intelligence and seemed like the essence of the plant.

Stb is tempting but you're more likely to succeed with acid to base, it just requires a little time at the stove soaking the bark in water and vinegar boiling straining the liquids into another pot, that's one acid wash, do like 8 more on the solid material, reducing the liquid pulls as you do by boiling (I do a rolling boil and just leave it for a bit). After you've got your dmt liquid reduced, base with lye and so on same as the end of stb tek

Your best option i think is to follow a STB tek and evap your extraction/pulling solvent over plant material (Mullein for example)
For an STB tek i suggest Noman's Tek

Note: You will get decent amount of fats/oils that will yield either wax/goo/oil, the amount of fats/oils depends on the climate (and others factors) the AC was grown in, your final result will be the equivalent of the effort you put into it.

Toluene and Xyline are my most readily available solvents, can I simply substitute either in place of the naptha called for, and evap over leaf instead of freeze-precipitating? Or would it be worth it to do some sort of wash or salting to be able to re-use the solvent?
Thanks!

Use toluene (its better than naptha but you cant really freeze percip the freebase from it, DMT is too soluble in it even at cold temperature, evap your toluene over leaf to make infused leaf.

what do you mean when you say "evap your toluene over a leaf"? Can i please get a link to the instructions on how to do it?
