i extracted 5 grams of nutmeg into a brown thick oil, if i recrystallize in ethanol, then i will get a white powder thats very pure. anyway heres a picture of the crude extract. just outta curiosity, since the festive days are coming, if i were to infuse this onto herbs, and smoke it would it be active? im guessing most of those toxins are going to be out by recrystallization http://www.leethacker.co...zbqms524f1d2bhs9169b.jpg

Nice. Would this be a myristicin extraction?

benzyme, i forgot to mention, i mean recrystallization with ice cold acetone or ethanol, to remove oils and keep myristicin

I'm skeptical that an acetone/alcohol wash would leave anything pure. both elemicin and myristicin have three H-bond acceptors.
