Has some one you know tried this extraction with wet cactus, instead of re-hydrating the powdered cactus? I'm sure the re-hydrated cactus paste might be a little bit easier for someone else to work with, but do you think the potency might be increased by skipping the drying step?
Thanks!

I'd suggest scaling up in small increments until you begin to notice a difference in yields. SWIM has noticed while extracting DMT in an a/b, that extracting 750 g MHRB per 2 gal bowl, yields better than 1 kilo per 2 gal bowl, and it isn't directly correspondent with the volume of liquid used. Now how to translate this precisely, and understanding precisely why, isn't always evident, and can prove very difficult.
So please, before you go trying to scale up to huge amounts, please take your time to do so slowly and experiment, because nothing sucks more than expecting an ounce of DMT and getting a half ounce, or with mescaline as well.
It could be it takes more time, it could take more agitation, it could take larger volumes of solvent to get larger amounts, but you won't know without slowly tweaking each element individually.
To be safe, and pleased with your results, I suggest learning a tek as is, then scaling up slowly until you see diminishing returns. Then work on it more to figure out why. This is the way SWIM developed his STB tek, and he would love to get further data and experiences to increase his ability to perform these wonderful teks!
Best of luck in scaling up!!! :thumbup:

Sorry if you posted this already, but what was your final yield?
Enough to have a whole lot of fun ;)

how much carbonated water do you use?
I used about a half liter of carbonated water per pull on 200g.
Great TEK.
Post more results!

:lol: It's been almost a year since I finished the initial extraction.

This is a new discovery for me. I was about to give up on extraction because Im not interested in harmful chemicals. Thanks so much for testing this and I might message you with some questions some time this week.
