I have found STB Normans DMT for the masses to be quite easy, very good yield, and eliminates all need for PH meter, or strips, as well as eliminates the need to filter the MHRB/NaOH solution that they have you do in A/B tek using muriatic, NaOH, and Naphtha.
And as far as estimating doseages.
IMHO, I have found that different extraction teks, as well as different sources of MHRB, can produce quite different results as far as being able to accurately guestimate a dose size.
Using Normans tek, but starting with Brazilian MHRB powder vs using Mexican MHRB powder, i ended up with a very fluffy white spice with the Brazilian, but a yellower, and much more dense crystalline product from the Mexican.
if you were to look at what appears to be about the same volume of both, you would be off by a factor of 2 due to the different consistencies................
Just FYI, for what its worth...............

I am certifiably insane, as such all posts written by me should be regarded as utter nonsense or attempts to get attention by using totally fictitious verbiage...........
