Hi all

2 Days ago I started 69ron's food grade mescaline extraction. I did my first pull on friday 6 hours after adding the d-limonene to the San Pedro-cao mix and got 40mg after salting 3 times with vinegar. My second pull 12 hours later yielded 117mg, my third pull is currently in the dehydrator so will probably be ready tonight... I tried this tech two times last year and got unusually low yields as well.

I know it's not the cactus as 12g of this particular batch is enough for a nice strong journey... After lots of googleing I came across a few threads that mentioned that most store bought vinegar has lots of impurities which can lead to low yields. If I have low quality vinegar could salting 4-5 times instead of 3 yield more? I remember reading Q2121's food safe DMT tech where he added a shot of water to the d-limonene after salting with vinegar, I googled some more and read somewhere that mescaline acetate is soluable in water.

So I added 40ml of water to the d-limonene separated and added the water to the vinegar after salting 3 times during the last pull which is currently drying, could this help?
Does anyone have any other ideas I could try? I don't want to use HCL at all.

Thanks
