Take dry mesc hcl, add acetone, crush up mesc while it is in acetone repeatedly for 5 minutes, let mesc settle to bottom, then decant the acetone. Add more acetone, repeat. Allow excess acetone to evap and leave you with cleaner mesc. It is best to use anhydrous acetone, and it is also good if you can keep it cold.
