If you just want to see if there's anything left that you missed and you don't want to go to the trouble of the mini a/b, you could just use all the used naphtha you have to take pulls from your heated base soup, evaporate it all in a dish and see what it leaves behind. It won't be clean and fluffy but you'll have your answer and it can be cleaned up after the fact. It will be a fair bit of solvent to evaporate and it's kind of a waste though.

Better not to evaporate naphtha (Yuck!)

Instead, wash with white vinegar or citric acid solution then take this acid solution and evaporate to recover DMT acetate or citrate. Mix with sodium carbonate (washing soda) to rebasify, allow to dry, then pull with acetone. Evaporate acetone to recover DMT. Recrystallise if necessary.




“There is a way of manipulating matter and energy so as to produce what modern scientists call 'a field of force'. The field acts on the observer and puts him in a privileged position vis-à-vis the universe. From this position he has access to the realities which are ordinarily hidden from us by time and space, matter and energy. This is what we call the Great Work."

Forget naphtha. Get on that heptane. Pulls less fats and oils.
Just try a stb on powdered root bark.

1500ml water
100grams lye
100 grams root bark
50-100ml heptane pulls.
freeze precip your pulls and evap the leftover heptane. Or just evap it because its heptane.

Get yourself a gallon glass pickle jar and stir with a big steel spoon.
Gloves and goggles.

I just wanted to thank everyone who has commented on this post, i have been taking all your advise on board. Sorry I haven't replied sooner but i've had some internet problems so i havent been on here much in the last few week.

Since I originally made this post I have completed one other extraction following the same method. The second time round I had a slightly high yield but still low....0.5g from 100g ACRB. From that 0.5g about 1/3 what white fluuf and the other 2/3 was yellow spice.

Today I used cybs hybrid salt tek for 50gram...its in the freezer now, hopfully ill have something nice to wake up to in the morning Smile

If your not yeilding right still, i've just mentioned this to another member having trouble with acacia.
Try using more water with powdered bark.
In the older stb teks (nomans mentions it i think) finer powdered bark requires more water for good yeilds.

This may be something to keep in mind.
I've never had to use more water because i've always used whole root bark & broken it down by myself & it does not get anywhere near as finely powdered as bark bought pre-powdered.
