Hello everyone,
Some days ago I performed
69ron's extraction . Overall it was quite a success as I pulled about 700mg of goodies from 50g of Torch.
The only thing I did different was that I used HCl to salt and not vinegar.
Still, I have some suggestions to enhance the tek which I would like to discuss here. Could someone be so kind to post a note in the original
thread so this gets some attention, please?
1.) After filtering off the d-limonene, I would suggest washing it with saturated brine to remove impurities.
2.) Salting with HCl seems to be tricky. The closer the pH is to 7 the cleaner the product seems to be but pulling takes a long time. The lower the pH the more junk you pull from the d-limonene. My suggestion would be to salt with vinegar as given in the tek and THEN add a few drops of concentrated HCl to the water that contains the alkaloids. If you evaporate the water afterwards, you should end up with the HCl salt.
Any thoughts on this?
Again, I would like to thank 69ron for the awesome work he put into this tek. You rock!
