Helping a buddy out with his first extraction. This is only 1/2 of the first pull, looks like less than a gram. I took some cool pics of it though

I'm gonna melt down and combine all the pulls but I wanted to take a few pics first cuz some of the crystals are kinda pretty. Total pictured is about 2.5 grams

Here is everything after melting and re-xing it. So something happened with this extraction that I haven't experienced before; a thick yellow-orange oil would seperate and sink to the bottom of the naptha. From what I understand this is from heating-cooling cycles. So I used a small dropper to remove most of it but some did remain at the bottom which is why the bottom part of this crystal cluster is a darker color. The stuff that I removed is full of DMT though, it crystallized fairly fast after I moved it to another jar. I'm not complaining by any means, I like the yellow stuff a lot. Just wanted to give you guys a brief description of why it looks like that. Any of you guys ever experience this thick yellow oil seperate outta warm naptha solution?

Yeah that’s pretty common with hot naptha pulls. It’s different from but similar to the red spice that xylene pulls. Some bark is more prone than others to it as well.
A fun experiment is to wash it with cold heptane. If your experience is the same as mine, you’ll get somewhat pure DMT from the evaporated heptane and a waxy red crayon substance from the washed residue.

Got 3 washes condensing in a crackpot so I can fit it in my sep funnel. I used a much finer filtration systems so there was much less vegetable sludge getting though. I'll filter it again at some point. Starting material was 250 grams MHRB

PS I used nylon nut milk bags for filtration and they worked marvelous. I also used them in conjunction with a little contraption I threw together: I stuffed the thin end of a regular automotive funnel with synthetic pillow stuffing then covered the end with a double layer of coffee filters and used a rubber band to secure it. The combination of both methods is working wonders.

Nice El_Ron, your dye has a beautiful dark color to it!

It looks like grape juice lol

[el_ronhub_bird]

The liquid has been reduced to satisfaction. It's going through a final filtration as we speak. The speed at which the liquid is filtering tells me that it's already very clean with minimal sluge/particulate matter. This seems to be lining up for a great extraction

Got some snow white crystal formation on the first pull. But once again there is a yellow-orange go that has sunk to the bottom. I don't mind it. I like the idea of different chunks of the final material giving you slightly different trips

Dayamn, nice job!

Dayamn, nice job!

Thanks Yoshi!

Not too shabby for a first pull from 250g MHRB. Pretty damn white and sparkly too. Even at high Temps I couldn't get my naphtha to turn piss yellow. Not complaining, just different. I've always considered 3.5 grams of deems from 250g of MHRB to be reasonable. Looks like we're well on our way to that lol

For you to pop up over a year later with the line "something is a brewin" and a picture of red juice is absolute comedy gold.

Ive read through this thread like 3 times now and it makes me laugh everytime i get to this post.

I'm glad you get some enjoyment/value from it. I've been fairly thorough documenting my DMT extractions over the years in this thread. And the steady compilation over time allows for people to browse years of learning and practice sometimes in one night. That's what the internet is for right; compilations of data sets for quick reference? Anyhow, thanks for saying so, it's nice to know my work is appreciated. Got lots more cool stuff lined up for you guys coming soon!

Great job El_Ron, those crystals look beautiful! What amount do people use for a "breakthrough" dose?

About 40-60mg

1st and 2nd pull condensed into one container. Looks to me like I'm already well over 1% in 2 pulls. Anyway we'll see what happens, we're just having a little fun here lol
