and if there is no electric one to hand .then this is very effective also

Electric one isn't big deal, ilpt had mechanical more sophisticated then brother above displayed, but it cost him too much effort and time. Electric one costed him 500 intergalactic dollars which is around 5 british pounds. The mechanical one were more expensive and he got him only because he was affraid off sparks. This isn't a big deal as limo isn't ether

SWIM added and decanted some MEK to his sticky acetate and now it's "drying" under a fan, but it's a super thin layer stuck to the bottom of the glass jar. He's wondering if it will become more unstuck and movable? He's afraid that its just stuck to the bottom.

edit: Nevermind, SWIM mixed some OJ with the washed mescaline and all was well

SWIM tells me that the product was fairly active at 200mg, and felt very clean. Mission success Excellent tek.

He's since tried using cactus powder from both Flowing Visions and River's Source, and found the FV powder to contain almost twice as much magic by weight, and substantially less of that other brown stuff that SWIM doesn't want.

Are the impurities from Torch then not usable or worth evaporating?

SWIM put about 650mg mescaline vinegar acetate with ~6ml MEK, after the 2nd wash it seems that there is hardly anything remaining on the glass surface.

A little amount of the sticky couldn't be crushed/wouldn't dissolve, other than that it doesn't look like any movable product or powder.

SWIM used little baby food jars, and it seems like what he can scrape up and use right now is just the brownish sticky that wouldn't dissolve all the way in the MEK.



(Here's his 660mg sticky vinegar acetate he started out with)


The previous vinegar acetate mesc pull SWIM did (same Torch) and washed with MEK, the same thing happened after the 2nd wash - it kind of just sticks to the bottom and doesn't

even look like there is hardly anything there.

How is SWIM to use this? It's only been about an hour but he can't notice any MEK smell, but kind of still smells vinegary..should it be consumable?

Also since it seems that SWIM won't be able to collect this mescaline properly, last time he mixed OJ in this jar, and did his best to mix it into that and consume.

SWIY's thinks this is his best bet?


One last purification question SWIM has is that the MEK in his town is "KleanStrip", however he

is unable to find what Grade it is, a search on the label and website PDF doesn't have "usp, fcc, acs," or "technical" written anywhere.. SWIM's just curious what Grade MEK he has although it may not matter much at this point.

Most reports indicate that Torch has a much high ratio of mescaline:other alkaloids, so MEK cleanup will perhaps show less profound results.

What may be the major downside to m-acetate is that is absorbs moisture from the air, making it a pain to work with. The 'orange juice tek' you used previously may be the way to go.

Are the Torch impurities left after a MEK wash disposable? It's been about a week and I think the MEK has completely evaporated, SWIM's wondering if the impurities left would not be pleasant enough to try from Torch, or completely disposable.


edit: SWIM has 1 last problem he's encountered with this tek recently (his own mistake). He added probably 50-100ml more limonene than the amount called for, as he felt the cactus was too clumpy (it's probably supposed to be this way but felt wrong compared to his limo spice xtraction), so now it's kind of goopy. It's SWIMs fault for comparing the two like that, however he is now paranoid that this extra limonene is absorbing potential mescaline that he won't be able to get out - like it's just trapped in the cactus (french press goes right through now). Is it all in his head, or is the extra limonene no harm in this case?

I havent done ron's tek but from chemical logic, I cant see why adding a bit more limo would be any problem. The alkaloids will be spread equally inside the limonene. So lets say if you for example added 200ml limo and you were able to get out 150ml limonene, the rest being trapped in the cactus (if I understand what you are saying), then in this case 25% of your alkaloids from that pull will still be there in that trapped limo. But then you make another pull and this gets again spread out between all the limo.

So after all the pulls, the amount of alkaloids left behind should be minimal ( lets say that, as a guess/example, the first pull 50% of the total alks in the cactus come out, the second pull 30%, third pull 10%, fourth pull 5%. So if you make 4 pulls and 25% of limo is trapped in the cactus, you are only gonna be losing 25% of the 5% total alks, so just over 1%, which is not much....

I hope im not making this even more confusing, lol

What I would please like to know-- a query to the knowledgeable ones-- is, might there be any issues concerning reusing the Limonene three times instead of using 900ml. This would be a nice way to conserve on Limonene, and in addition, a nice way to just use a 500 instead of a 1000ml separatory funnel.

I reuse the same limonene sometimes. It just takes more pulls to get all the goods out and it will probably have a little more residue attached to the final product. But that's all good for me

Residue don't bother me either-- not that SWIM, or so and so, has tried pure Mescaline.
However, the measly 200 at most of residue (I call it), that came from some obviously bad cactus from some dude in Arizona through ebay (you know who you are), was an amazingly productive day at the homestead, all regular redundant burnt-out patterns on the back-burner.
Laundry was done etc...
Bed might haver even been made...

P.S. IT wasn't "bad" per-say-- just weak, or let's say: Lacking an abundance of inner strength...

Of course this was, as the result of, 69's suggestion of some Coffee.

Pleasant enough taste them alkaloids.
What was left at the bottom of the cup was surprisingly bitter/sweet...

Point being, I don't at present-- despite reference to clean pure Mescaline's superiority with regard to one or more of the three primary Cactus' varieties that we are generally associated with-- feel the need to go any further.

This is, especially because, my current involvement in this community is honestly completely based upon the so-called "non toxic" and "food grade" variations that have been at the forefront of the Alkaloid extraction movement for-personal-use that I have been watching evolve.

Anything Lime, Limonene, and Vinegar is alright by me!

Awesome explanation endlessness , very helpful and makes sense, thanks.

WARNING !!! DO NOT USE ELECTRIC MIXER !!!

It could led to explosion in hotter places. Most of his extraction with electric mixer ILPT done in cold enviroment but at higher temperatures limonene evaporate more and creating explosive vapour mixtures with air .

damn looking at this 50 page long thread makes me dizzy. i never posted here, so just wanna let you know that this is a super awesome tek ron; you're a genius and i salute you!

ron, can u tell me where u get your limo from? the best and only place i know is greenterpene, but its too expensive; 1 gallon=52$ too much shipping

Can you also tell me which is the best alternative solvent for this extraction if i cant find limo. I don't care if its food grade or not. Does Toluene work just as well, or no? Xylene? Would i lose or get a lower yield with either?

Your help is very much appreciated Ron!! if anyone else can provide they're input, that would also greatly help. Thank you very very much

In addition to my above question (^^), can someone also tell me, if i were to use Toluene instead, what are the chances that its traces will remain in the final product? (i don't plan to do a wash). How harmful can these traces really be for the body?

Thanks for the kind words. I often get accused of being a d-limonene manufacturer from time to time because of this tech. The rumors are not true. SWIM just loves non-toxic techs.



SWIM gets it from www.greenterpene.com. That's a great place to get it from. SWIM is a happy customer of theirs. The price of d-limonene is higher than a lot of solvents, but you can redistill it and reuse it. It's easily redistilled by steam distillation. If you have the ability to steam distill it then 1 gallon can last you many years.



Xylene or toluene will work almost as well. Neither are as good, but they both work. A yield decrease of something like 10% will be seen. Don't use heptane, naphtha, or any other highly non-polar solvent.

thank you very much ron for your thorough reply i do plan on buying a gallon of limo in the future when i can afford it, but right now i'm just gonna buy some Toluene. Do you think if i was to pull with Toluene 4 times, instead of the minimum of 2 like it says in your tek, i could avoid any yield loss? Either way tho..10% loss doesn't seem all that bad..

Can you also answer my second question:

I would assume that almost no traces would be left in the final product, since all the Toluene will evaporate from the final product, when the vinegar is being heated/evaporated in the oven..right? So to me, it appears that chances are very slim that any toluene traces would end up in the final product, but would like to know your expert opinion. Would i be risking my health in any way? I already mentioned that i won't be doing any kind of wash on my mesc acetate...so yea..

Thanks again for your help and time ron, you rock!!

Another pull works just fine. There's no real reason to use d-limonene except that it's much healthier than most other solvents.

This is the first tech ever published that used d-limonene for mescaline extraction. I am actually the first person to ever publish that mescaline is soluble in d-limonene. SWIM did a lot of solubility research on mescaline a while back and published a long list of things it's soluble in. It's posted somewhere on this forum. This tech was actually based on SWIM's old xylene tech, and then he switched to using d-limonene once he found out that freebase mescaline was soluble in it.



Evaporating in vinegar is not going to easily get rid of the toluene. There will be traces of the toluene present in it and SWIM would be able to taste it. The best way to get rid of the toluene is to dissolve the end product in alcohol, IPA, or acetone, and then evaporate it again.

damn ron i didn't know you also found out about mescaline's solubility in limo..mad props bro. I recently read that list of mescaline's solubility in various solvents, etc..it's here in the wiki.


ok i see; i'll just dissolve in IPA and do it that way then. I don't understand how IPA or acetone would help get rid of the toluene tho. The traces of toluene would be so low that it would end up in the IPA as well. Is it that when IPA is evaporated, the toluene in it would have a larger surface area to evaporate from?
Also, the IPA wash would only dissolve the mescaline. this would mean that there will be some non-soluble particulates settled on the bottom from mescaline acetate. Could SWIM consume these non-soluble particulates, because he remembers from your post that you said that one of these alkaloids is psychoactive (i will be performing my extraction on Torch...idk if that matters)..

Has anyone come up with a method for recovering the limo that seems to be absorbed by the cactus mix in this tek? Many people seem to report 'losses' upwards of 1/3 on the first pull.

Perhaps adding water after the last pull would cause the trapped limonene to just rise to the top for easy recovery.
