When infusing the leaf blend, would it make sense to pre-grind the plant material prior to DMT infusion? It seems to me that the increased surface area would allow for more consistent infusion and ultimately, dosing?

Thanks in advance!

(as a related aside, when making 10x caapi via the IPA menstruum method, wouldn't it also be beneficial to pre-grind the leaves?)

Its good to break it up to the consistency you wish to smoke it as. Grind it up too much and have fun smoking powder.

As for caapi leaves when making 10x I shredd the leaves fairly good but again too much will make straining them too much of a hassle.

right on hyperspacing!

once again, your advice is super helpful! (btw, the suppliers that you suggested worked out swimmingly!)

i'm off to the science store for IPA and a separatory funnel!

Always glad to help

Goodluck, let us know how it goes.
