So I think someone mentioned this a couple pages ago, but I really do wonder if whether the MDMA is crushed to a fine powder or not makes a difference. The one unaccounted for variable in my experience, was that the MagicDMA was crushed to a fine powder for everyone that took it, the crappy stuff was in a chunks. For myself, 100mg as the constant dosage of all my rolls, the times I remember the MDMA being on that nirvana level experience it was definitely crushed to a fine powder. Would leaving it in chunks effect how its digested as opposed to a perfectly fine powder that would digest evenly?
I know there is some relation between the serotonin system and the gut, and I was reading something about how salt type effects how its digested and many people were saying different salt types produce different effects and different strength of effects. If the rate of digestion is effected by salt type, then maybe its also effects by how finely ground the MDMA is. Maybe if its in chunks, its digesting slowly/improperly and creating this more gradual and munted high, leaving you in a between place. In fact, just from searching theres plenty of stuff saying that yes, you should crush it to a fine powder as it will have more surface area.
"Its metabolised in a different area of the body then the HCl is. It makes its way deaper into the digestive system before it is neutralized and released. This is the reasoning behind why the Citrate is suppose to be more potent."
"given that the stomach only contains around 5% HCl and the PKA of Citric acid is enough that under those conditions stomach acid will do very little to convert this to the hydrogen chloride salt. This is where the magic lays... it is strong enough to tolerate your digestive system and instead it starts to metabolize it in the small intestines instead..."
Could this also be applied to finely ground versus chunks of HCL? HCL chunks make it further down the digestive track? This would totally make sense with what I experienced with the MehDMA (lots of chunks) because the come-up was waaaaaayyy long and never really "popped off", stuck in this intensely anxious come-up state that just skidded along and never really rolled in the right way (i also got a stomach ache). Whereas the MagicDMA (crushed to a fine powder), it was like I felt nothing, and then in all of 20 minutes I went from 0 to 100 (and my stomach gurgled like CRAZY in the most pleasurable way right at lift off) and it caught me off guard.
this also sort of makes sense considering in the pressed pill days, the MDMA had been crushed to a powder before pressing into a pill, there weren't actual chunks of MDMA in the pressed pills. When crystal MDMA started taking over, "molly", is when a lot of people felt MDMA changed.
On another note, friend of mine acquired two new MDMA samples from different batches that have been submitted to that same lack-luster NMR service. One he had tried himself and said he felt was quite good and close to the MagicDMA, its a very light pink crystal, I've never seen MDMA like this before. The other sample is hilarious (he got it for free for his connection), its literally black and dripping with precursor, you can see droplets in the bag and its just glistening with sticky goo. And MAN does it smell strongly, its certainly MDMA, tests just fine, I don't think I'd take it but interesting nonetheless.
