I have read the standard brew way as put in the faq and also the all about aya thread and looked through the forum. I do realize there are very experienced and smart people on the Nexus, I was merely trying to invoke conversation and see peoples different perspectives on different brews and what worked for different people. Albeit I do realize I was vague at first, I do apologize. I had to leave quickly and just posted the main point and did not go into depth with my question.

I still don't understand what you're asking, if it wasn't answered in the FAQ or All About Aya.

Here it is dude, Water+ Aya+ chaliponga or charcuna+ manyhoursboiling+ reduce= ayahuasca thats all there is too it, just search for aya preparation tech to figure out how long you needa boil.

Its not an exact science man
I just put the desired amount for 2-3 doses in my crockpot, turn on high and leave it for 8 hours, then collect the liquids, and add new water for a total of 3 washes. then i reduce and thats it. Aya is AMAZING.

I read Aya can be made with various different substances, chaliponga, charcuna, amiruca, of course mimosa, with harmal,caapi, passion flowers etc. or synthetic MAOIs. I was just wondering what the spiritual feelings were like, OEVs, CEVs, etc. different lengths of time the trip lasted, and what brews you guys prefer.

I asked my buddy to post all of this info last night as I was busy around the time and thought he could handle it, but hed been puffing the MJ :/ thus resulted in the blunt question (no pun intended ) and I apologize for the daftness.

Chacruna varies more and is thus more likely to lead to failure to launch.
Mimosa has a disgusting taste and is more likely to lead to vomiting.

This is how i solve that problem: i make chacruna brews with the normal amount of chacruna. I let the brew cool down and then add 1 to 5 grams of MHRB, stir, let it sit for a few hours and maybe stir a bit more and then filter the brew.
I only extract the mimosa with cold liquid. It tastes far less disgusting then.

If the chacruna is too weak, the mimosa will give it an extra kick while these amounts of mimosa extracted with a cold brew, will not be so completely overpowering that it will freak you out.

SWIM prefers brewing her ayahuasca vine 6 times for 30 minutes each time and reducing with an egg white added to bind the tannins from the brew. She like using DMT-fumarate, as experiments led her to believe a near exact dose of the light works best for her. If she wants to go deeper, she drinks more aya.

Actually, i think it's better just to experiment with it yourself until you find what works best for you. Ayahuasca is something you have to build a relationship with.

Yup, we can speak like doses and combination but it's a each one is own thing.
If you're new to aya why not brewing 100grams caapi. Drink 10 grams worth of brew' and see how caapi is like slowly slowly. Upping the dose before adding any light. Then try separately a few common admixtures such as chacruna, chaliponga, mimosa, passiflora etc...

Caapi is a very beneficial plant on its own so it worth getting to know it before mixing it up IMO.

ahh, ok thank you all very much for your time and help!
