This is, instead of doing it the usual way ie. adding both water and citric to your dope then heating, you first add only the acid, heat it up, and only add the water when it's bubbling.

It's supposed to make for a stronger hit but also carry a much greater risk of abscess formation because of coarser particles being retained.
I haven't tried this yet ; has somebody else done it and if so did you notice a difference in the impact of your shot -?
 
This should break down some of the leftover impurities, especially if we’re talking black tar or product with any tarryness to it. If one used a micron filter this could actually reduce the impurities being injected, but without proper filtration yes this could make the product less safe with water insoluble crap going into the vein.
