SWIM was just starting to make some Changa with MHRB (STB)jungle spice and Caapi leaves. Went to dissolve 400mg jungle spice into ethanol (151 proof everclear)to infuse 2gr of leaves and was surprised to see what looks like a white alkaloid that's not dissolving into the ethanol. Was wondering if anybody has any idea what it might be. The Caapi leaves are very mild and a perfect bed to smoke the spice on. Was thinking about potentiating the Changa by adding some harmine and or harmaline freebase also.

That's very interesting, but how are they white when jungle-spice is usually dark in color? Can SWIY verify?

The jungle spice was a light sulpher yellow. When the ethanol was added there were what appeared to be white crystals dispersed through out that refused to dissolve.

noman posted something about methanol extracts of mhrb somewhere down the 1st page of this thread and it being more potent than straight dmt extract: http://www.dmt-nexus.me/....aspx?g=posts&t=2410

maybe this helps? im guessing EtOH will pull similar to MeOH

if noman is still around somewhere, maybe he/she can explain further as its been awhile since that thread was active
