So you ARE saying that codeine phosphate is adsorbing onto cellulose and requires a special de-sorbing agent to come off. Can you please provide literature where this phenomenon was observed? My tests clearly indicate that there's no codeine left in the tissue so I am curious
I'm sorry, I had no idea that you seem to have a procedure that miraculously extracts every last droplet of H2O within your Kleenex cellulose filter. Incredible, your Kleenex is then dry when you are finished with the procedure? They aren't damp or anything, indicating their is still codeine saturated H2O within them, right?
As little as possible is not a figure, you probably never done it before. 0.6g/100mL = 600mg/100mL = 6mg/mL. If you use 1mL/ pill, for 20 pills(300-15-8) you get 120mg caffeine. Assuming you use the incredible and unheard of 0.5mL/pill, you get 60mg caffeine but you lose codeine because the cellulose cannot dissolve completely.
120mg is almost a cup of coffee man. You didn't achieve anything. To remove caffeine you need to use acetone first, and re-extract. It says on bluelight, it says on erowid, it says everywhere. I can re-extract with acetone until I get the codeine extract down to 0.1mg of caffeine...I just don't want to. And what does caffeine removal have to do with using Kleenex instead of coffee filters? Does caffeine adsorb onto the filters? Lol. You just don't know your facts.
Did you not see the example I provided at the bottom of my previous post, I believe those are in fact figures.
Yes, 120mg's is almost a cup of coffee. If I were to have used 3ml per pill, than instead I would end up with 300mg's of caffeine. What does 300mg's compare to? What is that, like 4 red bulls? This is a massive difference in comparison to a mediocre 120mg's, which would have little effect on the codeine buzz. 300mg's would destroy the high, so I don't understand what you are trying to imply when you mention 120mg's is a single cup of coffee, hardly comparable to the amount of caffeine in 4 cans of red-bull.
I wasn't saying that caffeine itself is better absorbed by coffee filters then by Kleenex.
I was simply pointing out than when you use a thick layer of Kleenex like you did, their is a larger surface area and thus more potential for liquid to be absorbed into the Kleenex itself, and by having to do rewashes of the Kleenex, you are using unnecessarily large amounts of water, allowing for more caffeine into the final solution.
Don't tell me your re-washes get all the codeine because I guarantee the Kleenex is still dampened at the end of your procedure. Unless you are some how applying metric tons of pressure to squeeze out every single drop of codeine saturated H2O out of the Kleenex , you are increasing your potential for loss, because those slightly dampened Kleenex's only need to contain .7ml of water to hold 1 GRAM OF CODEINE. By using a thin filter such as a coffee filter, you minimize loss potential. That's all I'm trying to point out, but if you are stubborn to your ways, I'm not going to stop you.
180mg is a cup of coffee. You fail at life, use acetone if you are allergic to coffee. My method does not use cool-down because I am not allergic to coffee and I don't get high on 50 pills at a time. My method is an easy, 5 min long extraction in case you got a migraine like normal people. If you want to extract 10,000,000 pills, you would need an acetone bath to remove caffeine. Get it? ACETONE. Google it.
If you were against the fact that I don't cool down to speed up the extraction, fine, I would agree with you to have that point of view, it's legitimate. But talking about Kleenex adsorption makes you look bad, that's all.
Good day.
I don't understand why you find the need to use unnecessary insults, I simply used your own words against you in my previous retort.
Yes you are right, 180mg's is a cup of coffee again. Now compared to 450mg's of caffeine, 180mg's is in theoretical comparison, like drinking a coca-cola, compared to drinking a monster energy drink. Their is a massive difference in the overall effects, 180mg's of caffeine would again, have only small effects on a 240mg codeine buzz, 450mg's of caffeine would RUIN it. Their is no debating this, nearly half a gram of caffeine is not even in the same ballpark as 180mg's of caffeine. The anxiety and jitters with such a dose would make the codeine dose irrelevant, and the whole high wouldn't even be worth it.
Why would I not aim for as little caffeine as possible?
I actually do suffer from chronic migraines, the aura and nearly total blindness when it first starts, the the nauseated bedridden drill in my head excruciating pain 2 hours in. I was actually hospitalized because I lost my vision for 18 hours after a terrible migraine, so I don't see the point in adding in your pity case of, oh I get migraines I need my codeine quick. If you wanted your codeine quick you could simply prepare larger quantities at once, and keep refrigerated or even evaporate the substance and capsule it in order to have reasonably pure, quality codeine doses at hand.
You do have a point though, since you only do 10 pills or such at a time, this really isn't necessary because you end up with a maximum of 150mg's of caffeine.
But realistically, most people who have any other opiate tolerance won't even catch a mild buzz from 80mg's of codeine, and because of such tolerance, it is crucial to extract as little caffeine as possible when preforming large extractions because otherwise the caffeine will have adverse side effects and over-all ruin the whole experience.
To remove caffeine you need to use acetone first, and re-extract. It says on bluelight, it says on erowid, it says everywhere. I can re-extract with acetone until I get the codeine extract down to 0.1mg of caffeine...I just don't want to. And what does caffeine removal have to do with using Kleenex instead of coffee filters? Does caffeine adsorb onto the filters? Lol. You just don't know your facts.
Here is where you are wrong man. In fact, my whole argument above actually is pretty pointless when I mention this procedure, but this is the ideal way to truly preform a codeine extraction.
You actually can, quite easily extract the caffeine directly out of your solution. No need for acetone. Codeine is incredibly soluble in only small volumes of cold water. Caffeine however, not so much so.
By extracting lets say, 100 AC&C pills at once, I can use 100ml's of water, and let's say their was no margin of error, and my water is 15 degrees during the extraction. The codeine is completely soluble in this amount of water (by quite a large margin actually, 1 gram can dissolve in .7ml's of water) and I am then left with 800mg's of codeine, and the caffeine is soluble at 1gram/100ml of water so I am left with 1000mg's of caffeine.
I could simply just divide this into 4 separate 200mg codeine doses, which will have roughly 250mg's of caffeine in each dose. This isn't to bad, but even 250mg's of caffeine will have moderate effects on the over all codeine high.
Now, here's the rocket science. I can actually lightly boil down my 100ml's of codeine/caffeine solution to only 15ml's. Codeine, against popular believe, is actually quite stable in boiling water. I then take the final 15ml solution, and refrigerate it for about an hour to allow it to cool down to close to 0 degrees (my refrigerator is 2 degrees). During this time, caffeine begins to precipitate because you see, 1 gram of caffeine cannot stay dissolved in 15ml's of cold water because it's solubility isn't high enough. Actually, only 150mg's of caffeine can stay dissolved, and you actually begins to see pretty cool looking caffeine crystals form in the solution, it's quite beautiful really. To ensure all the caffeine precipitates , it is recommended that you leave the solution in the refrigerator, covered for 4 hours. This trade of time is well worth it because we are actually making many many doses at once, since we're working with 800mg's of codeine.
Then, by simply re-filtering this 15ml of codeine/caffeine solution, I am then left with 800mg's of codeine, and only approximately 150mg's of caffeine.
This means 100mg's doses of codeine are now only contaminated with a tiny amount of 15mg's of caffeine. Under thresh-hold effect, you are left with a nice clean sedating euphoric codeine high. I personally would use closer to 200-250mg's a dose, and let me tell you, this dose with only 30-37.5mg's of caffeine is wonderful. I'd compare it to my experiences with oxycodone, eliminating the caffeine to such a small amount makes a world of difference.
Good Day.
