Running Earthwalker tomorrow back to back with a mash up of Max Ion, Cyb's salt and EW to see if there is any difference. Only got low yield first time around with EW so hoping to tighten up on the schoolboy errors made on my behalf a second time around.

Will update in a few days. Glad to see you back EW, heard it's been a tough time for you and my thoughts go out to you since your loss.

Peace.

Thank you for you're well wishes Kingofsnakes , yes I've been away for a while but starting to get back on track although I will never fully recover as TinkerBell was my one true love and if I ever had a soulmate she was mine as I was hers .. But thank you all nexus family you all have been very supportive ...

Since I am now able to post in this thread I wanted to say thank you very much Earthwalker, I've been following this TEK with great results. I have something cooking as I type so I'll drop back in when I have some results to share.

Sorry for your loss, I hope you and your family are doing okay.

Cheers.

Quick questions to all those on this thread. During the last step, how quick are you getting rid of the solvent once the dish is removed from the freezer and getting the fan on it? Is this time critical? I think the first time I took too long, didn't have the fan set up directly on it. In the process, could any dmt have evaporated?

Also, 18 hour minimum in the freezer... Do some people run an optimum time and optimum sub temp? I've heard -6 a few times. Can anyone confirm? If I'm getting to precise them let me know, just can't work out where the majority of the DMT was lost on the first cook. Only 0.5 at the most gained from 100g and I felt like I ran a super tight ship in general.

Pulling in general: I'm going no where near the layer that separates the two solutions right? I just kept getting the distinct feeling that I was missing all the good stuff on the first round of solvent pulls. I could almost see hundreds of crystals on that layer everyone says keep away from and it seemed like they couldn't break through in to the solvent. Or, I could be completely mistaken and should draw up zero of that layer. I know that's what all the info says but does anyone's eyes play tricks on them? Even then, assuming you can actually see dmt in the solution in the first place.

Many thanks in advance. If I can get 1% yield on second cook, I'll be very happy

DMT won't evap, it may disolve back into the NPS at room temp, I poor it off quickly and sit upside down to drain any excess for about 1 minute then put it under a fan. I keep the NPS for later pulls anyway so any DMT that didn't precip can be got at a later date.

I usally do 24hrs as cold as my freezer will go but haven't played with these numbers, if your NPS is clear you should be good.

I haven't seen any crystals at the pulling stage, mostly just fats inbetween the base and NPS, try use a smaller pipette or syringe to get as close as you can I guess. If you feel you have more product left over then do some extra pulls, I'm probably pretty excessive with the amount of pulls I do but I'm annoying like that.

I'm still a noob so take my advice with a grain of spice.

That's all good Pathfinder, many thanks

-6°C is not cold enough (if you are speaking in °F, it's good^^). It works but you have to understand that the colder is the NPS, the less DMT is soluble in it and so you have more cristals.
Good freezers reach at least -18°C on the minimum setting which is good.

I disagree...
-6c is absolutely fine...although colder the better, obviously

Just finished up with my last extraction.

~ 250g ACRB
~ 750ml distilled water
~ Pre-heat 1.5 hour @ 55c
~ Freeze/Thaw x3
~ 250ml distilled water + 100ml vin; PH 3.04
~ Acid Cook Low 55c-65c 8-9 Hours.
~ Salt (90g-400ml)
~ Base (65g-400ml); PH 12.77
~ Base Cook Low 55-65 - 3 Hours.
~ 8 * 30ml Pulls (ran out of room in container.)
~ Mini A/B - 500ml distilled water - 100ml vin; PH 3.20
~ Wash & Pull
~ Base 200ml distilled water - 50g lye; PH 12
~ 14 * 60ml pulls from mini A/B.

The mini A/B is still a little cloudy so I might pull some more but I've already pulled so much....

Total yeild 2.947 (1.1%) is lower than I was hoping for based on my previous 100g extractions but oh well, can't complain about 3g of spice! Plus I did spill a little transferring the pulls to the mini A/B... doh!. I might see if the base soup is still holding anything but the amount of pulls seems excessive.

Also I fell asleep when I was doing the pre-evap and accidentally went all the way. Got some amazing crystals I could pick out of the dish with tweezers as a result though.

Sorry for the IMG spam it's just so pretty...

Peace.

Jesus
That looks amazing
I am in a process of almost identical extraction that i figured it would work and now i see that it does.

Nice spice Pathfinder, that's enough to keep you soaring for a while.

Great work! A friend and I just finished our second tek with low results. Under the fan now but I reckon 1g tops from 200grams of ACRB. Would be really interested to know the following as I have 100grams left and would like to follow the above for direct comparison.

1) Am I right that 250grams is powdered?
2) Did you defat before the a/b?
3) Our left over from the clean is full of what looks like crystal which has settled at the bottom on the vessel and a gently swirl seems to displace it. Looks like crystal and I'm assuming the DMT is non soluble in a polar environment. Could this be our missing spice?

Many thanks, the spice porn photos were awesome!

Good luck, be keen to know how you get on.







1) Yeah very finely powdered.
2) No defat, just the mini A/B.
3) Not sure about this, the waste NPS I have from my mini A/B is cloudy with some base soup at the bottom. I assumed it was mostly fats.

You could possibly wash it with acidic water then base and pull to see what you get but I'm not sure about this, someone with more experience might need to chime in.

For 100g of bark I've had great results following Earthwalkers TEK to the letter, good luck & let us know how you go.

Hey pathfinder. What do you think of that wax leftover. I prefer it.

I don't really get much wax after the mini a/b but I did get some nice honey direct from the base soup on my first extraction which I wiped up with some herbs for a great trip.

I pulled another 1.054g out of my base soup which was about 60/40 crystal/red goo (no mini a/b just straight freeze), I haven't tried it though as I was thinking I should re-x.

(P.S don't worry I'll lay off the pictures after this post... )

Do you do heated pulls in the mini A/B? I'm thinking I get more wax because I always do heated pulls. I do love the waxy goodness

Beauuuutiful results pathfinder , just beautiful , you've got me going now I'm gunna do a ext tomorrow see if I still got the Tek down will post results ASAP ..

Good to see you on here Earthwalker!

Look forward to seeing some big chunky shards

Just warm NPS, room / lye temp A/B.



Awesome, good luck and thanks again man.

I notice a lot of you guys still freeze precipe , the beautiful thing about the mini ab is that you can just Evap in front of a slow breeze or a very slow fan over the corse of a couple of hours , the results will speak for them selves truelly and for people that are in oz or other parts that you can buy shellite or naps cheap ( $24 for 4ltrs ) you won't mind evading 300-400ml but this is just my opinion ....
