If it was made by salting out or dissolving in vinegar then that's a whole lot, congrats!
If it was made by evaporating it is nowhere near pure and will be nasty and inefficient to smoke. Personally SWIM wouldn't smoke it.
A simple process can make sure that you are only getting the actives and will be nearly 100% pure.
Dissolve whatever will dissolve in vinegar then let settle for an hour or two, decant off the vinegar then either evaporate it down to a concentrated tincture (SWIM's preferred method) or fully evaporate it until it no longer smells of vinegar (but not over 100C) and that will yield pure stickly freebase.
Q21, SWIM did the limtek salting out from d-limo with vinegar, then, he put this vinegar in the oven at 80°C to evaporate.
I quite don't get if you said this would be impure or not. Did you mean evaporating the d-limo instead of salting out with vinegar? If it i's this, SWIM salted out from d-limo with white vinegar.
So, would you recommend to redissolve this in vinegar, will vinegar sort of purify it?
Smell like tea n,n spirit !
Toke the toke, and walk the walk !
