Yea I plan on using alcohol as a vascodialator and I was going to chew on some caapi but I'll put a lil powder in the snuff to. If you have any tricks to getting the inner membrane off the eggs it wld be greatly appreciated cuz I tried and it wasn't working.

Just take one half at a time; break a piece of egg at the rim and remove it to expose the membrane edge to grab.

Carefully peel it to the bottom (so as not to tear) at a 30 degree angle or so from the inside of the shell-side.

The more surface are you have a hold/leverage on with the fingers, the less concentrated pressure and lower likelyhood of tearing.

You know how you can peel an orange in one piece? It is that same idea just work the piece bigger; loose at each edge and down and it will tear sometimes that's okay: It is like a zen practice or something haha.

The main thing is to prevent breaking the eggshell into small pieces because then it really can become a pita

Also; are you using fresh eggs? That might be easier; maybe soak them for a minute to rehydrate before mostly drying and continuing if they aren't fresh shells?

Maybe a simple wet washcloth covering a finger would work to wipe it away.

Maybe a journey to the health store for pure CaCO3 (Calcium carbonate) antacid, or shopping for sufectant-free (often called "clear" ammonia (do an evaporation test) would be better options for snorting or smoking; respectively.

Blessings.

Shelling yopo is definitely a zen exercise!

The easiest way is to put them in a hot fryingpan untill they puff up and 'pop'. Shelling will be easy.
I have prepared yopo snuff with lime and think i did a 3:1 mix of peregrina/lime, using just 5 beans:

The shelled bean was powdered and mixed with lime, and enough water was added to make a thick paste. This was left for a while, returned to a fryingpan and heated to dry, and scraped off and re-powdered.

The resultant powder was made into lines and insufflated, resulting in amazing oev/cev's. Comparable to my recent Aya visions, and perhaps in some cases even more beautiful.

I did not use the colubrina variety, as these are not truly "yopo", according to what i read, they are 'vilca,'and unlike yopo, don't contain dmt, or as much?

Thank you flickedbic I will try those ideas I was going to get them wet again if it didn't work so I'll do that.
Lol we were talking about the eggs inner membrane but I'm sure pealing the shell off the seeds isn't much easier but I am frying them. I heard you can smoke just the shells of the seeds too is that worth trying?

I've heard some good stories of plain and extracted bean husk. Extracted freebased is probly the way...

The bean husk actually is pretty easy to remove; even before toasting.

Just break the husk on each side by bending the seed (which will remain intact) each way; thus opening it (sort of like a piece of wheel-cheese) and pull off the top husk half; grasp the bean disk and pull the other half of the husk free.

Blessings.
