I took 340mg of 3 year old white tan mescaline hcl last night in dreams which had been finally cleaned using a mortar & pestal, funnel stuffed with cotton and ice cold anahydrous acetone & distilled water for the rinse of the cotton after it had dried overnight. (Took 240 mg at first, then bumped it up 100mg about 1.5 hour later) The cleaning process is described by Ekstaza in a thread entitled "mescaline extraction made easy" on the web & here.
It was by far my FAVORITE method of taking it.
My friend took 120mg. And we both had a very very pleasant time.
The tan mescaline was divided into 20mg portions (equivalent to taking about one peyote button) in tiny gel caps and placed on a paper plate. Each portion was taken every 10 minutes with water until it was all gone. Using purified mescaline and taking it slow eliminated nausea for both of us. So it was consumed over the course of 2 to 3 hours. Next time we will speed it up and taken it over the course of 1.5 hour. We were just being cautious as we both have had weird stomach feelings with very brown mescaline taken all at once in the past.
There was absolutely no nausea for either person.
This is just as good or better than acid in dreams (and I've taken over 200 acid doses over a decade ago). It would work very well with acid as well. I found it more colorful though, like 1.5 to 2 hits of good acid but with an underlying invincible sense of peace. Pupils were large.
The state of mind was so beautiful and colors were so damn pretty...music was a whole nother world and can't even describe how good it sounded in words...each person was totally coherent to all that was going around--I felt like I was in heaven it was that good. At one point colors seemed to be pouring over surfaces and a rotating fan rainbow of colors was seen in the dark. Light visuals were seen as overlays that covered surfaces and melting of boundaries if you stared hard at one object. It is so mellow and beautiful. I could stare at an object and all of it's surroundings seemed filled with energy and constantly on the verge of changing or disappearing, wanting to melt into other scenery, just amazing. Afterimages were persistent and long lasting. Patterns & colors and edges of color all so beautiful. This IS the way things ought to be seen. Music was a whole soul experience. Instead of just my ears hearing, all of my senses seemed to encompass the sound, and instead of hearing the music -- I was the music. I just wanted to get lost in the sounds & voices it was so beautiful.
I've taken six everclear extracts of cactus over the last two months, and this just blew it away do to their being no nausea, no cramping, etc. The 5th everclear extract had me puking 3 times in 3 hours (most likely because lemon juice and tartaric acid was added) and both ends erupting, the 6th everclear extract (no acidic additives) had 2 hours of background nausea so couldn't really enjoy it. If you use the everclear extract (1 or 2 shots of dark green liquid)--I recommend mixing it in ice cold orange gatorade with crushed ice and sipping it slowly over the course of an hour or more to reduce the nausea. I had no nausea using the first four everclear extracts--but I also drank it really slow and it wasn't very concentrated (threshold experiences--only soaked the cactus for half a day in the drinkable alcohol).
This purified stuff taken slowly over the course of 1 or more hours was just amazing and no stomach problems or nausea. My friend also said it felt like acid and was nice & mellow. She said she was tripping even off 120mg (about like 1/2 hit of acid).
Foaf's tek was used 3 years ago, and the funnel process with stuffed cotton or #102, #103 slow crystalline filter paper for cleaning, mortar and pestal, strong vacuum buchner funnel, ice cold anahydrous acetone (water taken out with epson salts) is a great method that I finally used several years later to clean up very brown sanchez--this experience just blew me away with how well it worked, and I feel amazing the day after, renewed and refreshed--except for a slight headache, but that is probably because we were up till 5am in the morning.
Tip for reducing mescaline nausea from PIHKAL page 260:
Shura said, "I've discovered a way to avoid the nausea, you'll be glad to hear. If you sip your drink over half an hour, instead of taking it all down at once, the nausea doesn't present a problem. So take your time, sip it slowly, and the inevitable doesn't have to be inevitable, after all!"
Page 259:
"I think I'll go for two hundred, and see what happens. I can supplement later, can't I, if it's too low?"
Shura said, "Yes, certainly, supplements should be effective for probably as long as a couple of hours into it."
Cleaning brown mescaline into a white tan powder (with my own dream additions/improvements shown in *):
Cleaning (from Ekstaza's tek):
1) Put a cotton ball in the spout end of your funnel so that it can filter. *I like to use 3 to 4 cotton balls and a buchner fuunel setup by placing the funnel into the hole on the rubber stopper of the flask & attaching a strong vaccum so the process is fast.*
2) Mix some *ice cold anahydrous* acetone with your extracted alkaloids. You can use a mason jar so that you can swirl it around easily. You want to get every piece of Mescaline washed with acetone, so mix it in good. *I use a mortar and pestal -- add 2 grams of brown mescaline to the mortar and pestal it for several minutes (grind it very well with the acetone). Mescaline is highly insoluble in ice cold anahydrous (made dry with epson salts) acetone.*
*How to make acetone anahydrous: Take a quart of acetone and place in a jar. Take 500g of Epsom salt and place in a 300 deg oven for 4hrs. Remove the Epsom salt and immediately place in an airtight jar. Now add three table spoons of the dry Epsom to the jar of acetone let stand one day then freeze till ice cold.*
3) Next, pour it into the funnel with a clean dry jar to catch the liquids. Use acetone to wash loose needles, that remain in the jar, into the funnel.
4) You will notice some color draining through with the acetone. Wash like this with fresh acetone until little to no more color is draining through. Put the funnel somewhere to dry. *I let the funnel with cotton dry overnight--I also evaporated down the acetone to see what the impurities looked like--it evaporated down to a somewhat greasy dark brown impurity like sticky powder*
5) Once all acetone smell is gone from the funnel and it's contents you need to pour some hot water into it with it positioned over the evaporation dish. The hot water will dissolve the crystals and allow them to flow through the cotton into the dish. *I now use 3/4 cup of lukewarm or room-temp distilled water for even cleaner mescaline as hot water tends to dissolve a small amount of the discolored impurities that got trapped in the cotton.*
6) Evaporate as before. The resulting crystals will be considerably whiter and more pure. This is not only for aesthetics, but also it makes for more accurate dosing. *I place the pyrex dish of water under a fan for three days, and then am left with a dish covered in crystalline like whitish mescaline in patterns over the entire surface. Scrape it up with a razor blade, also like to add that there is considerably less (ie, no) nausea using the purified mescaline over the dark brown mescaline (at least in our case).*
7) You can put this powder in capsules to facilitate simple dosing with pre-measured amounts in each capsule. *(I like to divide it into small 20 to 40mg doses in tiny capsules and take them slowly over the course of an hour or more--eliminates nausea for sensitive people). Some nausea is inherent to even the purist of mescaline, but letting the stomach adjust to it by taking it slow resulted in absolutely zero nausea for both of us, and I don't like to get sick or puke if I can avoid it.
Don't forget the Source--Mother earth deserves all the credit.
