Can my cat make a hybrid of the teks by completely evaporating the product from the hummingbird tek, scraping the dry good and loading these into gel caps?
Thanks!
Yes, that will work wonderfully. I recommend that you also combine your harmalas into the liquid before evaporating. IME, the comeup happens almost just as quickly whether drinking liquid or swallowing caps.
An alternate to the humming bird cold water extraction, would be to simmer the MHRB for a bit -- that way, you can recover all the alkaloids rather quickly.
After that, there are various fining techniques you can use to reduce the amount of tannins, if nausea is too problematic.
The most effective fining method that I've tried is to reduce the liquid to a low volume and freeze it, then let it thaw in the refrigerator overnight. You'll see a lot of goo has formed on the bottom of the container and the liquid will be much clearer. Save the liquid, discard the goo. Do this BEFORE mixing in your (cat's) harmalas.
These aren't the droids you're looking for.
