How to brew ayahuasca or analogues (mimosa hostilis / syrian rue)?
https://wiki.dmt-nexus.m...nd_Troubleshooting_GuideThe standard way of brewing is to first of all have the material powdered/grinded or pounded as fine as possible. Then
* 1- boil on low fire (or simmer) the plant material anywhere between 1-3hours (some people do even longer but not necessary and energetic/ecological costs become higher)
* 2- filter/strain the brew to separate the liquids and solids, store the liquid separately,
* 3- add fresh water to the solids and boil everything again. Do this for a total of 3x,
* 4- put the liquid from the 3x boils together, discard solids,
* 5- reduce the liquid on low fire/simmer to a manageable ammount, like for example 100ml per dose (dosages/amounts of each plant in this thread
The MAOI containing plant (banisteriopsis caapi vine or syrian rue) can be boiled together with the DMT containing plant (psychotria viridis or mimosa hostilis), though some also brew separately and consume one after the other.
An acid can be added to the brew (such as a dash of lemon or vinegar), but this is not strictly necessary (and neither the traditional indigenous way) because alkaloids in the plant are naturally in water-soluble form. Adding acid will make it taste worse, but it might also increase the potency of the brew.
