1) The 2 stirring steps illustrated in Chapter 5 can be reduced from 20 minutes, to only 10 minutes each. It shortens the overall procedure time nearly in half.

2) and that DL tartaric acid powder or just "plain TARTARIC acid powder used in wine making available worldwide" (not citric acid) should be the only acid powder used that the author used over 5 years ago during the Eleusis kykeon and Vedic SOMA highly successful experiments, so it is very helpful to read about the progression of theoretical simulation steps updated later. Citric acid does not work, only tartaric acid powder works (available worldwide), as described in book.

Again, process only worked extremely well every time when using tartaric acid powder ONLY, not citric acid. It does not have to be DL tartaric acid but can be just plain tartaric acid powder used in wine making, available worldwide.

Illustrated is how the LSA from 25 HBWR seeds LSA converted to LSI felt exactly like 100ug LSD, and how 40 HBWR seeds LSA converted to LSI felt exactly like 170ug LSD or 550mg mescaline. The experience is noted as being even better than LSD imho as LSI incorporates an extra carbon molecule which makes it much more like mescaline than LSD, even more euphoric, colorful, and music enhancing than LSD.

1) The experience lasts 8 strong anxiety free hours with a 10 hour duration
2) There is a pleasant stimulation all night long into the wee hours of the morning, just like ALD-52 or mescaline exerts
3) The strength becomes stronger and stronger until she reaches a peak 3.5 hours in
4) There are profound Spiritual revelations, insights and intense healing, she is a feminine teaching spirit.
5) A brilliant diamond like shimmering of all visuals, infinitely fascinating
6) Tracers with open eyes as powerful as lightning strikes, none of the choppiness of LSD visuals, rather the visuals are flowing.
7) Intense, bold neon-like colors are seen all night, just like a combo of ALD-52 + mescaline, far, far more colorful than LSD. I have seen neon colors like purple-yellows, red-greens, and orange-blues that don't belong on this earth
8) Infinite way over the top euphoria felt all night (just like a combo of ALD-52 + mescaline). Anyone who has ever had cactus understands the mescaline euphoria I am talking about.
9) The beauty seen with open eyes is infinite and divine, no words to describe. This was one of the main reasons I took this psychedelic, the enhancement of beauty is just so over the top, extreme and heavenly.
10) The closed eye-colored geometrics seen which progress to real visions the longer the eyes are kept closed are just like what you see on a combination of LSD + mescaline, hundreds and hundreds of way beyond 4k visions many of them playing as if in a movie.
11) The music enhancement is just incredible and heavenly. I've felt more with this LSI, LSV and LSCr combo than with any traditional psychedelic except for mescaline that I was an extraterrestrial being, immersing myself in new sensory phenomena for the first time. Where LSD heightens and clarifies the sense of hearing, this Eleusis kykeon brew simulation produces auditory hallucinations, heightening the hearing sense but also causing sounds to be quite different than normal. I am a music lover and always listened to house music most of the night during the experiences, as on LSI, LSV & LSCr combo, every instrument and beautiful voice stands out on its own, every song is "epic". Like hearing a song for the very first time.
12) As for aphrodisiacal use of LSI, LSV & LSCr combo, wow! it brought energies out of me that I never knew I had.
13) There is zero or no anxiety with this potent 3 psychedelic combo, just like with ALD-52. This would explain why there were no bad trips reported in the Eleusis Kykeon literature.
14) There are no physical side effects: no body load, no nausea, no vasoconstriction, no cramping, just pure psychedelic bliss.
15) The next morning (I would typically get 6 hours sleep after the experience) I felt re-born with a massive serotonin "reset". I would go walking in nature with my shih tzus the following morning and all of nature looked as if brand new with a curiosity of nature's divinity.

Note: Morning glory seeds did not work, only HBWR seeds worked to simulate the kykeon and Vedic SOMA in the experiments in the book ages ago...my results with up to 150 morning glory seeds were extremely disappointing (even below threshold effects), I believe the mg seeds are mainly 75% clavine alkaloids with less than 25% LSA, the levels of LSA in mg seeds being probably around .001mg per seed vs HBWR seeds at .04mg per seed. The morning glory seeds resulted in zero entheogenic effects, no euphoria, no stimulation, no visuals, and even no physical symptoms like dilated pupils.

Eleusis Kykeon and Vedic SOMA theoretical simulation Materials list:

1) 25 HBWR seeds, approximately .04mg LSA per seed.
2) 0.001g scale
3) One oversized shot glass for the spinning of the seed dust, and one regular shot glass for the fridge, and a 6 ounce half pint tall canning jar 4" tall x 2.75" wide.
4) magnetic stirrer with 3/8" x 1" long stir bar that can spin easily and fast inside the shot glass or canning jar.
5) everclear (95% grain alcohol or similar high proof alcohol)
6) coffee grinder
7) mortar and pestal
8) long pyrex brownie dish (9" wide x 15" long)
9) 2 razor blades
10) a fan, and a hair dryer to use for last 5 minutes of water evaporation from the pyrex dish (optional)
11) 3 grams of the secret herbal substance very high in isovaleraldehyde, valeraldehyde & crotonaldehyde.
12) distilled or spring water
13) For the chapter 5 three super simple steps with sketch illustrations: DL tartaric acid powder can be used or plain tartaric acid used in wine making (available worldwide). I give amounts of DL tartaric acid or PLAIN TARTARIC ACID powder to use, 30mg in beginning, and 10mg on last step. The 2 stirring steps can be condensed down from 20 minutes each, down to 10 minutes each, shortening the overall procedure time.

--> The few easy steps from Chapter 5 are in the book, drawn as black and white sketches, most of the time is spent waiting 10 minutes between the 3 basic steps. <-- LSI is forming internally (in vivo) in the liver, this is all explained in book. A new home made TLC performed (1.24.26) even shows LSI (new indole product) forming externally with stirring in water acidified to ph=4 for at least 10 minutes. I compared before and after home made TLC of LSA extract (before) with LSI + LSV + LSCr extract combo (after stirring). So this can form not only externally with stirring, but in the liver as well.

Wonderful tek, looking forward to trying it out this summer/spring
By the way, are you the one who posted years ago about the decades old ergot wine a friend made in some cave?

Propionaldehyde = 2.18
Isobutyraldehyde = 1.41
Butyraldehyde = 0.69
2-methylbutyraldehyde = 2.28
→ Isovaleraldehyde or Butanal = 7.52 (converts LSA to LSI)
Hexanal = 3.73
Trans-2-hexenal = 1.60
Trans-2,4-heptadienal = 1.17
Benzaldehyde = 1.12
2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohexene-1-carboxaldehyde .3
→ Valeraldehyde = 13.40 (converts LSA to LSV)
→ Crotonaldehyde or 2-Butenal = 7.63 (converts LSA to LSCr)
2-hexenal = 1.39
That data from the pdf you cited is all mass spec peaks. These just indicate that they are detectable by mass spec, and not that they are present in amounts sufficient to be stoichiometric to LSA.

This is the label on table 4 which you have copied. This is not a quantitative measurement.
Volatile compounds of BG identified by SPME-GC-MS during four different growth stages (peak area, %).

Here is the text on the section regarding to volatile analysis. They mention finding decomethylcyclopentasiloxane in the barley at higher levels than any aldehyde. The presence of siloxanes comes from silicon grease contamination in the GCMS run (and the fact that it was not recognized as such is troubling), and really throws doubt on claims that these compounds are present at levels beyond the parts per million range (or even parts per billion, as they mention benzaldehyde affecting the aroma, which is detectable at 42 parts per billion, or 42 nanograms/gram).

3.4. Effect of harvest time on the volatile compounds of BG

In this work, SPME-GC/MS technique was used in detecting the volatile compounds of the BG harvested at the four growth stages. The obtained results are summarized in Table 3. On the whole, 29 volatile compounds, involving aldehydes, hydrocarbons, alcohols, acids, esters, furans, and ketones, were identified. The types and contents of the volatile compounds significantly varied with stage (P < 0.05). Hydrocarbons and aldehydes were the main components, followed by alcohols, acids, esters, ketones, and furans. As listed in Table 3, a Z29 sample collected at the tillering stage showed the highest relative content of hydrocarbons, followed by Z31, Z28, Z32, Z58, Z23, Z12, and Z21.
Pentane and decomethylcyclopentasiloxane were the main compounds. A Z21 sample collected at the seedling stage showed the highest relative content of aldehydes, followed by Z23, Z12, Z32, Z58, Z28, Z31 and Z29, and propionaldehyde, isovaleraldehyde, hexanal, and 2-butenal were the primary compounds. Interestingly, the presence of aldehydes, such as trans-2-hexenal and benzaldehyde, endowed the BG with a fresh vanilla
flavor. The production of these aldehydes, such as hexanal, may be related with the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in the BG by lipoxygenase and catalase (Cramer et al., 2005). Dong et al. (2013) reported that the polyunsaturated fatty acids in barley, such as linolenic acid and eicosenoic acid, which make up approximately 60% of the fatty
acids, caused lipid oxidation and produced large amounts of aldehydes. As can be seen in Table 3, the relative contents of alcohols decreased from the seedling stage to the heading stage, and the major alcohol compounds in the BG were ethanol and 1-pentene-3-alcohol. The acids in the BG showed the same trend as the alcohols, and acetic acid was the
main compound. In addition, ethyl acetate, 2-ethyl furan, and acetone were detected in the BG. The present results are different from the data of Cramer et al. (2005), who detected 26 kinds of volatile compounds in barley cultivars and showed that the major volatile compounds were hexenal and 1-pentanol.

More details: Everclear is 95% ethanol, so there is ZERO nausea once the 30ml everclear is evaporated from the brownie dish, and the LSA extract scraped up, this is all done in 3 simple steps from seeds to LSI. I have never ever experienced any nausea or any side effects whatsoever in any of my 7 highly successful experiments.

More info here, (the nausea causing seed mush is left behind at bottom of shot glass and thrown away, so there is zero nausea): please read entire thread: https://www.shaman-australis.com/fo...e-steps-a-more-euphoric-colorful-musical-lsd/ see post #1 on how nausea is 100% eliminated.

Yes, tartaric acid should be the only acid used (not citric acid) as we found out recently it participates in hydrogen bonding and is an important catalyst for the reaction that takes place during the two 10 minute stirring steps. As a matter of fact, I updated the book and ALL forums to reflect this very important update. The only error in the book is that I assumed citric acid could take the place of tartaric acid, so I wrote that it could possibly substitute, but again citric acid does not work. I used DL tartaric acid for all 7 very successful experiments, my all time favorite psychedelic, 40 seeds converted to LSI just as bad ass and exactly like 550mg heavenly mescaline, equivalent to 170ug LSD.

Plain tartaric acid (used in baking and wine making available worldwide) substitutes just fine for the DL tartaric acid I used in all my experiments in book and beyond, as I learned recently self experiment, absolutely no difference.

Ask google in AI, response is:
Yes, DL-tartaric acid can interact with and bind to the NH group of indole, particularly through hydrogen bonding [4.4, 4.6].
  • Interaction Mechanism: Tartaric acid acts as a hydrogen-bond donor (via its hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups), while the indole NH acts as a hydrogen-bond donor itself, or more commonly, the interaction is mediated through the acidic, polar, and hydrogen-bonding environment created by the tartaric acid, often forming stable complexes [4.4, 4.6].
Plain tartaric acid used in baking and wine making (available worldwide) thankfully is the D-isomer dextrorotary form of tartaric acid (found in high amounts in grapes), it is dextrorotary (reflects light to the right) just like D-LSD (the only form of LSD that works), as the L-isomer reflects light to the left and is inactive.

Chemical formula for tartaric acid is C4 H6 06, and according to AI it can indeed bond to the NH amide of LSA in acidic environments with stirring. Notice acetaldehyde has the formula of C2 H5 O which binds to the NH amide of LSA to form the psychedelic LSH or Lysergic Acid Hydroxyethylamide (see the molecular picture of LSH I posted in green color here):

www.shaman-australis.com


TARTARIC ACID has many more carbons and hydrogens and oxygen molecules than acetaldehyde, perhaps explaining the incredible potency of my Kykeon and Vedic SOMA 2oz brew, this raises many questions and is actively being investigated. Recall mescaline has many oxygen molecules, perhaps explaining why my 40 HBWR seed converted to 2oz kykeon and SOMA brew feels identical to me as 550mg of the Heavenly mescaline, much more euphoric, colorful, and music enhancing than LSD.

Ask google in AI, response is:
  • Dextrorotatory (+): This natural form of tartaric acid is indeed dextrorotatory, meaning it rotates plane-polarized light to the right.
-->over 5 years ago during the theoretical experiments, I started out with just 5 seeds converted to LSI + LSV + LSCr and noticed it felt about like 20ug LSD, then I went up to 25 seeds which felt like (25 x .04mg per seed) = 100ug LSD, then I moved up to 30 seeds which felt exactly like (30 x .04mg LSA per seed ) = 120ug LSD, then I moved up to 40 seeds (40 x .04mg LSA per seed) = 160ug LSD <--

As you can see, I started out low as cautionary approach with this new discovery over 5 years ago.

Tartaric acid is found in very high amounts in grapes. I read once the kykeon when drunk left a purple stain on beard and gown of priest drinking it...so this could explain if grapes were used in kykeon to provide the high levels of tartaric acid mixed with the LSA from the non toxic claviceps paspali that infects paspalum grass that grows adjacent to Eleusis in the famous Rarian plain then bingo: tartaric acid could indeed be bonding to the NH amide of LSA, explaining the incredible psychedelic potency of my 2oz brew.

VERY IMPORTANT: beware fake HBWR seeds.


The main difference between varieties is that the speciosa variety is used medicinally in ayurvedic medicine and the nervosa strain has high LSA alkaloid content. It makes little difference where the strains are grown, but most seed originating from India and Africa is of the speciosa variety and thus low in LSA. Do not use seeds from India, very low on LSA.

LOW LSA seeds will not work, just like morning glory seeds will not work as they have only 25% lsa and 75% clavine alkaloids.

Only authentic Authentic Argyreia Nervosa works as they are .04mg LSA per seed. They are black and brown in color and slightly triangular in shape, see last post for pic:


I use only authentic Argyreia Nervosa from Hawaii, A+ organic hawaiian baby woodrose seeds, I get 400 seeds per order, and have hid away literally thousands of the seeds, as the conversion of 40 seeds to LSI is exactly like 550mg of the heavenly mescaline. My all time favorite psychedelic. Zero side effects, zero vasoconstriction, zero sedation, zero nausea when my easy 3 step procedure is followed.

Tartaric acid used in wine making and baking available worldwide (30mg on 1st stirring step) and 10mg on 2nd or last stirring step works perfectly, no difference from DL tartaric acid. I tripped my ass off on 40 seeds converted last sunday to LSI using plain tartaric acid I bought for $8 on line used in wine making, took only 55 minutes to prepare as illustrations show. Only two 10 minute stirring steps, and 35 minutes waiting during evaporation step. Most of time is spent waiting between the 3 simple steps.

Felt identical to 550mg mescaline, out of this world neon colors all night, extreme euphoria, hours of way beyond 4k closed eye colored visions, infinite music enhancement, a pleasant stimulation all the way from 3pm when drank till midnight when I fell asleep. Intense healing and profound spiritual insights, profound shifting of colors and textures, powerful tracers, far better than LSD imho, no choppiness to the visuals but rather the visuals are flowing, magical open eye visuals, swimming in euphoria all night.Same exact power as 160ug LSD.

When you performed these experiments, why didn’t you go above the equivalent of 160ug of LSD?
I did not feel the need to exceed the equivalent dosage of 160ug LSD (subsequent experiments) as I found the resulting psychedelic experiences to go above and beyond anything I could have ever hoped for. I give a trip report after each experiment forming a combo of LSI, LSV and LSCr.

1) The experience lasts 8 strong anxiety free hours with a 10 hour duration. I have experienced x 9 times now, each profoundly psychedelic trip spaced apart by 1 month. Just as powerful as LSD but even beyond LSD, like a combination of ALD-52 (anxiety free version of LSD also discovered by Dr. Hofmann) & mescaline combined.
2) There is a pleasant stimulation all night long, just like ALD-52 or mescaline exerts, when taken at 3pm, I was always able to fall asleep by midnight, much easier to fall asleep after than LSD.
3) The strength becomes stronger and stronger until she reaches a peak 3.5 hours in
4) There are profound Spiritual revelations, insights and intense healing, she is a feminine teaching spirit.
5) A brilliant diamond like shimmering of all visuals, infinitely fascinating
6) Tracers with open eyes as powerful as lightning strikes, none of the choppiness of LSD visuals, rather the visuals are flowing.
7) Intense, bold neon-like colors are seen all night, just like a combo of ALD-52 + mescaline, far, far more colorful than LSD. I have seen neon colors like purple-yellows, red-greens, and orange-blues that don't belong on this earth
8) Infinite way over the top euphoria felt all night (just like a combo of ALD-52 + mescaline). Anyone who has ever had cactus understands the mescaline euphoria I am talking about.
9) The beauty seen with open eyes is infinite and divine, no words to describe. This was one of the main reasons I took this psychedelic, the enhancement of beauty is just so over the top, extreme and heavenly.
10) The closed eye-colored geometrics seen which progress to real visions the longer the eyes are kept closed are just like what you see on a combination of LSD + mescaline, hundreds and hundreds of way beyond 4k visions many of them playing as if in a movie.
11) The music enhancement is just incredible and heavenly. I've felt more with this LSI, LSV and LSCr combo than with any traditional psychedelic except for mescaline that I was an extraterrestrial being, immersing myself in new sensory phenomena for the first time. Where LSD heightens and clarifies the sense of hearing, this Eleusis kykeon brew simulation produces auditory hallucinations, heightening the hearing sense but also causing sounds to be quite different than normal. I am a music lover and always listened to house music most of the night during the experiences, as on LSI, LSV & LSCr combo, every instrument and beautiful voice stands out on its own, every song is "epic".

14) There are no physical side effects: no body load, no nausea, no vasoconstriction, no cramping, just pure psychedelic bliss.
15) The next morning (I would typically get 6 hours sleep after the experience) I felt re-born with a massive serotonin "reset". I would go walking in nature with my shih tzus the following morning and all of nature looked as if brand new with a curiosity of nature's divinity.

2) 0.001g scale
3) One oversized shot glass for the spinning of the seed dust, and one regular shot glass for the fridge, and a 6 ounce half pint tall canning jar 4" tall x 2.75" wide.
4) magnetic stirrer with 3/8" x 1" long stir bar that can spin easily and fast inside the shot glass or canning jar.
5) everclear (95% grain alcohol or similar high proof alcohol)

9) 2 razor blades
10) a fan, and a hair dryer to use for last 5 minutes of water evaporation from the pyrex dish (optional)
11) 3 grams of the secret herbal substance Aojiru young barley grass that comes in a nitrogen sealed 3g pack, 46 to a box, very high in isovaleraldehyde, valeraldehyde & crotonaldehyde.
12) distilled or spring water
13) For the chapter 5 three super simple steps with sketch illustrations: DL tartaric acid powder can be used or plain tartaric acid used in wine making (available worldwide).

Plain tartaric acid powder is available for $8 used in wine making available worldwide, which works just as well as DL tartaric acid, I tripped my ass off using plain tartaric acid powder. Plain tartaric acid is actually known as D-tartaric acid (old nomenclature) and is dextrorotary, which is all that matters. Tartaric acid powder is the only acid to be used, period. Tartaric acid participates in hydrogen bonding to LSA and is an important catalyst for the aldehyde condensation.

Dr. Mckenna said the author's 1 hour interview is being released on April 20, 2026 on Brainforest Cafe on you tube. The author's 7-page paper on LSI is being released on Graham Hancock's official site during the April to June timeframe.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: 3.31.70:

Tripped on 44 HBWR seeds converted to LSI last night, absolutely incredible!!! Had the time of my life: zero side effects, zero vasoconstriction, zero nausea. Felt just like 180ug of LSD but much more euphoric, colorful, and musical. Hours and hours of colored open eyed magical visuals and way beyond 4k closed eye colored visions. Euphoria, music enhancement, and visuals just like that of 550mg high dose mescaline.

Felt identical to 550mg of the Heavenly mescaline. Scraped up 200mg of LSA extract from the pyrex dish with 2 razor blades, then stirred it for 10 minutes with 10mg tartaric acid powder ($8 on line) and 3g or 1 pack of the nitrogen sealed Aojiru barley grass. My absolute favortie psychedelic, have taken 11 times now, averaging once a month for the past 10 months now. Took only 45 minutes, the 3 easy steps are illustrated in the book. Most of the time is spent waiting between the two 10-minute stirring steps and the 30 minute evaporation step. Super easy.

How this works:
Ask google in AI, response is:
Yes, Tartaric acid can interact with and bind to the NH group of LSA indole, particularly through hydrogen bonding [4.4, 4.6].
  • Interaction Mechanism: Tartaric acid acts as a hydrogen-bond donor (via its hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups), while the indole NH acts as a hydrogen-bond donor itself, or more commonly, the interaction is mediated through the acidic, polar, and hydrogen-bonding environment created by the tartaric acid, often forming stable complexes [4.4, 4.6].

Chemical formula for tartaric acid is C4 H6 06, and according to AI it can indeed bond to the NH amide of LSA in acidic environments with stirring. Notice acetaldehyde has the formula of C2 H5 O which binds to the NH amide of LSA to form the psychedelic LSH or Lysergic Acid Hydroxyethylamide (see the molecular picture of LSH I posted in green color here):

TARTARIC ACID has many more carbons and hydrogens and oxygen molecules than acetaldehyde, perhaps explaining the incredible potency of my Kykeon and Vedic SOMA 2oz brew, this raises many questions and is actively being investigated.

Beautifully illustrated 12 page paper on ancient LSI (Lysergic Acid Isovaleraldamide) being published on Graham Hancock's official website in a few days from 4.3.26: https://grahamhancock.com/stahlm1/

3 super easy steps from HBWR seeds to LSI: takes only 50 minutes, most of time spent waiting between the 10 minute stirring step, the 30 minute evaporation step, and the last 10 minute stirring step.

44 seeds converted just as powerful as 180ug LSD but even beyond LSD, much more euphoric, colorful, and music enhancing than LSD, effects identical to 550mg of high dose Heavenly mescaline.
