So wait - codeine dissolves in water at 250mg per millilitre? Is the difficulty basically this, that, using too little water risks losing codeine, whereas using too much risks drinking too much paracetamol?
I used to use no joke almost like a litre of water. I think this is why I found CWE's so fucking ghastly and just gave up on them eventually.
The difficulty is that if you had 250mg of codeine you likely have almost 10 grams of tylenol with it, so obviously for a CWE to work, all the powder has to be stirred into water and liquified, if you just used 4ml of water you would lose most of the codeine because a), GL filtering 4ml of water, it's gonna just stay in the filter like a sponge, and b) your 4ml of water would containe 90% tylenol, 10% codeine, and then you would have a bunch of powder that isn't even wet lol.
Anyways, 1l of water? That sounds f*cking insane lol.
What I do is 2ml of water PER t1 pill, so essentially per 348mg of crap (325mg tylenol, 8mg codeine, 15mg caffeine) and I've found this works beautifully. I lay my coffee filter out in one of those drainer things and then put that into a pot, so that the CWE filters over almost the entire coffee filter. Where as if you have your coffee filter in a cup, the CWE just uses the small amount of surface space of the filter.
here's a picture I drew...
as you can see, the cup really only drips right from the middle and your barely using the coffee filter. The problem with this is that the tylenol clogs the whole filter up really quick and then it takes FOREVER to filter, where as with the pot I can kinda keep adjusting the CWE mixtures around to unused spots of the filter where their is no tylenol clogging it yet, makes it take like 15 mins to filter instead of way over an hour.
Filters completely clear to, exept I then squeeze the filter to get the remaining codeine out which forces a bit of tylenol out sadly making it a bit cloudy but what can you do
Can't be losing my codeine!
Essentially, if you wanted 4ml of water to contain 1g of codeine, you'd after to perform a perfect CWE with 2-3ml a pill, take your COMPLETELY CLEAR MIXTURE, don't squeeze the filter, and with that completely clear mixture you'd lay it onto a large surface area and let the water evaportate, would take about a day or less, could use a blow dryer to speed it up but only on low or else the heat can destroy the codeine. And then you'd just be left with your codeine crystals (which still would contain caffeine sadly
), and then you could add all the codeine crystals into like 5ml of water to have a completely concentrated codeine spray or watever which you could then take like 200mg doses by using a dropper and adding 1ml to some juice or something
