What did you do differently? I've had similar issues, I think to do with my freezer being an ice box style one in a small fridge.
Oh man.
Oh man.
We have a lot of DMT right now :D
...I'm just going to wait till i die, yup. Saving DMT as my last drug to try you seePlus it will be free then.
left it in cupboard with some potatoes for, um, quite some time. Forgot about potatoes. Everything is now slightly damp and full of mould Anyone who can do a DMT extraction can also extract mescaline. I highly recommend it, it's a very rewarding process.
I usually just extract all of the naptha + a bit of the mixture into a tall glass and then it's easier to get all the solvent.And have you actually used a turkey baster successfully? I found it impossible to avoid pulling up the aqueous layer.

The bark is so affordable
The trick is to cook the cactus snot to break down the mucilage. I thought all was lost when the green goo swallowed up my xylene, but immersing the jar in hot water for a few hours thinned everything right out. I think I ended up with about 0.8% yield of cactus-alkaloid HCl from my first extraction, and I'm sure that would come up with practice. It is pretty expensive and time-consuming though, certainly a labour of love.I can't vader. You end up with a solid lump of cactus snot and a yield of about one trips worth from £300 of cactus.
Yeah, if you evaporated the solvent off and got nothing then you didn't pull the DMT in the first place. How much NaOH did you use? And how thoroughly did you mix the ethereal and aqueous layers (or polar and non-polar, whatever you want to call them)? Just don't throw anything away, you'll get there in the end, practice makes perfect.evapping is a pain...it sounds like you haven't got all the goodies out of the base yet, if it didn't precipitate out cos the freezer is not cold enough, it should have come out in the evaporation....not sure whats going wrong...
Boo, that's a shame. I'm pretty sure that means you angered the cactus spirit, I think you need to appease it with animal sacrifices.Vader, my cactus went mouldy
It's affordable in the sense that a less-than-three-digit price tag can afford you 1kg bark, from which you can extract up to nearly 20g (purportedly) of DMT.

I'm thinking we didn't use enough Sodium hydroxide. We've used 750g of bark and we didn't break into the second 500g tub of Everbuild. Would it be fine to add more at this stage, after pulling the last load of solvent and repeating the process?
