Ayahuasca brew - just want to know what others think

[theuglyeye]

I am currently brewing a three dose brew of ayahuasca; i have drank aya about ten times, and i have a drank it twice with a shaman. I know one Icaro. I feel comfortable with these plants.

I am currently brewing three doses using multiple plants. For the Maoi component, I am brewing about ten grams of syrian rue and fifty grams of ayahuasca (cappi). For the DMT component, I am brewing twelve grams of mimosa and a hundred grams of chacruna. I have all these plants in a slow cooker with two table spoons of vinegar and about four liters of water. I am only going to do two washes; instead of doing multiple washes i am going to continue to add water to the slow cooker when the water level gets low.

Just want to know what others think of this brewing method; i have not brewed ayahuasca for about two years now.

It should work although you do not need to cook the rue that much (10 minutes is more than enough for crushed seeds). I would, nonetheless, add 4 more table spoons of vinegar

I am thinking about doing ayahuasca at a burn event sometime next year.

We have a guide in mind already, an older fellow that i feel has a deeper understanding of many things. He is someone that seems to have a never-ending supply of wisdom i feel that i can take many things from.

I know it will be intense, and a public environment might not seem the best place, but it is a comfortable place for me, and i feel more at home there than i do sitting in my own bed.

10 grams of rue.

Isn't that overkill?

10 grams of rue.

Isn't that overkill?

I was more concerned about the 12 grams of mimossa, for 3 doses, that is 4 grams per dose, each gram is atleast 2% DMT (not all of the DMT is ever FULLY extracted from DMT, thats why the yields of extractions are lower than this usually) so 2% of 4 grams =.02*4 = .080 = 80mg of DMT ? that seems a bit high from my understanding, I have heard its better to use less than that, like 1 to 2 grams per dose, but those are also caapi mixes not syrian rue, i have NO EXPERIENCE with rue so cant weigh in.

When i was in peru, we drank aya differently then what i have read on the net; the brew was not boiled down to a small increment. Each dose was about a cup. After forty mintutes, we were aloud to take another dose if we felt the need. I plan to follow this ritual. I want to make sure there is enough brew so the participates can drink more if they require more.

The amount of syrian rue is alot; especially since i plan to dose another 2 grams of crushed seeds to the participants before we drink the concoction. I think westerners put alot of focus on the DMT aspect of the brew, but i would like to experience the effects of the harmaline at large doses (I understand the nausea that will follow consumption). I also read about a good way to remove all the yuckys from the brew using egg whites. I think this will help reduce nausea.

I never thought twelve grams of mimosa was alot; i was planning on getting more mimosa or chacruna from a friend this week because i wasn't sure there would be enough DMT in the brew. I have taken a single dose of twelve grams of mimosa before, and it was crazy! Fully sucked into another reality, but im calling this brew a death brew, so i think this is what i want from the brew. I'm guessing you wouldn't suggest adding more DMT containing plants to the brew?

Also, before consumption i am planning a twenty four hour fruit fast (slow down the metabolism) as well as going to a three hour sweat (sweat lodge) about eight hours before i drink the brew.

Also, jamaica0535, a strong dose of aya is about the same in intensity as six hits of blotter. More physical symptoms with the aya, but less psychotic blabber then the blotter (also, much shorter lived). You will also be more stationary with the aya, oppose to, the blotter. It may be less dangerous just because you will have less of a desire to wander around some strange dessert with a head full of tryptamines.

boiling

One last question.

The slow cooker i am using isn't getting as hot as my old one. The brew is steaming, but it is not simmering at all. The brew has turned a dark purple. Does the brew need to be boiled, in order, for the brew to become potent?
