...for someone who failed out of chemistry in high school? Please help me out on this one, I'm so bad at science.

IMHO, BLAB

So simple even a rock like me can do it.

the basic A/B is easy enough I feel he Big Leasure Acid to Base would give you too much time and you would get anxious and fiddle with it when you be letting it sit. What I do is three acid boils using 3 to 1 water to vinegar and I boil the first briefly pour
off the mimosa tea keeping the MHRB in the pot and the second for 1 hrs and the third 3hrs. After that I boil it down so it is easy to work with. I then mix ¼cup of lye and mix into a cup of water let it all disolve then combine with your mimosa wine. Then add your naptha keep it all warm. You know the rest.

You should really be reading over as many teks as possible, then from what you have read decide what works best for you, taking into consideration what is available, chems/jars/pipettes/basters/stove etc....

Take a read through the extractions forum https://dmt-nexus.me/for...lt.aspx?g=forum&c=17

It's not the chemistry which generates problems.
You must have certain stuff which makes extraction easier.
I would recommand Jorkest-fumaric acid approach.

Just buy yourself a sep-funnel, some lye, fumaric acid, some limonene and sodium carbonate.

That's all you need.
Everything else is just a matter of clean and relaxed work!
Then your end-product will be awesome.

i think it depends on what suits you and your situation best. for me any tek that im using lye and other hazardous chemicals are a pain in the ass. no need to pull out gas masks just to make some spice.

i have always done the naptha/lime stb teks. even if my yield could be a little better with acids and lye's id rather not deal with those substances in my home kitchen if i dont have to.

although ive never done any other extractions i truly cant imagine anything simpler as q2121's stb tek. ive used more difficult cooking recipes. id say if you screw this tek up you shouldn't be allowed to make dinner let alone dmt, its that simple.

i agree with gamagore, read up on the teks and FAQ's. it will save you a lot of hassle time and money.

SWIM uses the Lazymans tek.
They tried to do Normans but failed promptly.
ISWIMO, it doesnt get easier that the Lazymans tek.
SWIM can do it in an unventilated apartment..

I like noman's tek... if you follow the direction and the revisions its real easy.

Q21Q21
'Nuff said !

I think I'm going to STB with lazymans tek. Sounds easiest to me.

I don't mean to patronize, but since you speculating about lazyman's tek. Wear Goggles and protective gloves! Lye is extremely dangerous. It can blind and scar you for life. Better yet, speculate on the process of tek that doesn't use lye.

I've been in America too long to not use something dangerous to do something faster

I am in the same boat, and found all the foodgrade teks both SIMPLE and SAFE.

I have been using lye scine the 80's and I'm still kicking! I even use it to make ormus phillosiphers stone. Which I consume orally. And in my mescaline teks. Just do a wash after if your worried but yes gloves and goggles are a must!

This guy's post, for the win! :-)

Nah, that tek sucks. REALLY bad!

(I'm Q21Q21 who made the tek, haha. It is awesome)

It's incredible how something so simple can give such great results. It's great!

I've never extracted, but I shall opine anyway. I'd be looking to the eco friendly teks.


I have zero experience--but since this is the nursery, maybe I can speak just a little out of turn without giving offense.

How about the Poor Mans Tek? Think about petro chemicals and what sort of karma they have attatched to them, the history they carry with them, the life forms currently in peril because of them. Do you want your spice to be tied up with any of that garbage? I'm rather befuddled at how quiet the eco friendly tek section is--are the yields really that much lower, or the proccess that much slower, or what? I'll say it thrice--I have no experience and hence have been rather reluctant to pipe up on this matter, but there is a pink elephant in the room and I've been itching to comment on it.

No offense is intended at all--in my life I frequently make usage of petro and related nonsense. I am in the proccess of learning to live better, I could spend hours listing the changes I've made in my life, to minimalise negative impact on this earth--and the list of things that I'm still working on would be just as long. I'm not preaching! Let's just try and do things the cool way, make conscious descisions and such-like.

Or tell me why I am wrong.

nomans tek 4 me
q21q21 looks much harder, is it me or just a mere illusion?

I would have to agree. Although I do also agree with minxx in that the food grade teks were generally pretty easy to execute.

And I didn't even take chemistry in high school, let alone fail it So I had no chemistry knowledge whatsoever, and have now taught myself a pretty decent amount of it from reading teks and threads here, and experimenting in my kitchen
