Hi,
I have 1kg of p.harmala seeds and i want to start more extraction teks for learning.

I would like to strat with something simple, i read many tek and choose manske salt but also gibran (that is for caapi) can gibran be used for rue ?


Thanks.

I do gibrans tek first and follow with a manske or 2 for purer harmalas.

Thanks, :-)
So using manske salt for purify the result from gibran ?

yeah, i do a several A/B cycles then when it looks ok i do 2-3 manske runs.

Depends what you are using it for. I find a quick and dirty A/B does the trick but if you like your harmalas clean then a couple of manskes helps.

Ok, i'm doing the first gibran tek...when it's finished i decide, i want to use them for changa, i made a 100 gr gibran near to be finished, maybe it's enought for changa ?

...nooo...i fucked up again...uff.

I start redissolve the based precipitate with winegar but the solution was cloudy, like the basification stage, so i decided to warm up in a bath...and the jar crack !!! i save some of the liquid...it's cloudy....what i have to do ? add more winegar ? decant separate the cloud part and redissolve again...shit !! trow everething and start a new one ?

I might be wrong but isn't the cloudiness the crap you wanna filter out?
The good stuff would have been totally dissolved in vinegar ..

i think this but the cloud are like snow flakes that settle when leave to decant...so i don't know i have a dark layer of water winegar and alcaloid ? i hope and a layer of flakes beige flakes, like the one that precipitate during the basification, now i'm trying to separate the two and add more winegar to the flakes....i have just filter everything in a cofee filter just after adding winegar and mix...oh i don't know..

Finally, i decide to trow away the flakes grey stuff layers and basify the water/winegar/alks...and got the milky white snow flakes situation like the one in gibran tek photo...ok :-) maybe less tha expected (broken jar...) but maybe i can make some rue extract/spice changa...ok :-)

Need to learn not only the basic step and use of chems and filter etc etc...but a good look also to the type of container, size... and tools....there's a tutorial on nexus about what kind of jar, and all the glass ware and tools needed to this or this or that extraction ? would be very usefull to the novice, yes there are a lot of post about it but i didn't find a good tutorial that explain the use and selection of glass items...ok, maybe i didn't search well.

you want these in the larger sizes
