Swim has a few questions on what would be the best way to prepare 100g of dried san pedro chips without having to eat 50 capsules of it. swim has looked at faqs about it but much of them are very complcated. swim is just looking for something simple to condense the amount. thank you for any suggestions...
 
i hope your not planning to ingest all 100g for one experience.. usually around an ounce (28g) of chips and even less is the average dose

you can grind the chips to powder and boil in water for a good 5-6 hours, keep adding water when the evaporation makes it low, then in the final step reduce the liquid to the smallest amount desired > strain > and enjoy

i've sucsessfully used p. torch dried chips before and talked about it in the Big and Dandy thread, it'll have all the information you need:

Before you spend too much time on preparation I'd recomend boiling just a spoonful and tasting it first. There's a chance you will gip and spit it out the first time it hits your taste buds - which will save you wasting the entire 100 grams.
 
Man come on why do people persist with that SWIM bullshit? Its so incredibly annoying!

Put a 1/4th of the chips into a powder and into capsules and eat them. There you go thats it. That is the SIMPLEST way to do it.

Don't forget to drink a lot of water.
 
The problem is that San Pedro varies dramatically in potency, so 25g of chips could be 250mg of mescaline, or less than 100mg. I once powdered 50-60g, added to pineapple juice and drank the resulting green slime. I managed to keep it down somehow but had a rather mild experience. It was extremely enjoyable - I felt somewhat euphoric, colours were brighter, greens were enhanced etc, but this particular batch was clearly not high in mescaline.

I don't particularly recommend the pineapple juice method (just thinking about it a year later makes me retch), and you should certainly experiment with a lower amount to know the potency of your cactus, but some sort of basic extraction would be preferable to swallowing 50 - 70 capsules. That's pretty hard on the stomach too.

Apart from just making a tea, the simplest would seem to be an Everclear (alcohol) extraction, a full acid/base on cactus is quite a lot of work and involves hazardous chemicals, (unless you want to make a hobby out of it) :)
 
I would like to do some research into way's of preparing San Pedro's into mescaline... I have 2 nice sized San Pedro's 1 is 38cm and the other is 49cm they both have 2 little pup's each as well. I would like to do it when I'm old and when they are huge lol. Then I will have a nice little hobby when I have spare time hehehe

Great little hobby ;)

While you're waiting for your San Pedros to grow you might want to try a Mimosa Hostilis extraction, it is considerably quicker and easier than cactus, but follows a similar process. The chemicals are slightly less hazardous too, so it's a good learning experience.
 
wait, why is everyone tellin this man to extract.


when i saw this thread i thought "YEAAAAAHH" san pedro potato chips (minus the potato). badass. this man has good ideas.

like how fucking cool would it be to just be munchin on some chips that make you trip. seriously. cant taste that bad dried. and their already bitter so you dont even need to flavor them. right? right?
 
For frotting fuckerella's sake don't eat raw cactus ... it's usually the prelude to a long and nightmarish vomitfest.

Here's my grandma's old recipe, dating from sometime around the Abdication Crisis:-

1. Grind the shit into powder using a "coffee" grinder.
2. Boil the powder in copious, acidified water for half an hour.
3. Filter the resulting snot through an old t-shirt (much squeezing, wringing and cursing required.)
4. Boil the filtrate down to a quaffable volume (half a cup is good.)
5. Add lemon juice to taste. ;)
6. Take a wide-bore drinking straw. Jam it as far down your throat as you can without gagging. Use it to suck down the snot, trying to avoid all contact with the taste buds.
7. Dose gradually - take half an hour per 25g of cactus.

This should result in a pleasant, vomit-free experience with a comfortable come-up. It had better, because you'll be under the influence a long time ...
 
eat it raw, like doritos chips, with sour cream or guacamole. bring some of that tobasco sauce too=D , or not if u dont want too. the guacamole/sour cream really mask the bitterness, but try not to drench them, cause ur stomach might fill with dip and u will get nauseous.

making tea is good too, like others said. though it will be hard to get down, it will be quick.
 
You guys have never had cactus have you?

It tastes awful. Putting it in capsules will be the easiest way to choke it down.
 
I know this is a bit off topic, but we all really need to stop buying dried cacti chips, or any other preperation besides the raw cactus; the "ornamental use" grey area is taken away and it is explicitly for human consumption at that point. This is a surefire way to get the attention of LE. Tricho cacti are my favorite sacrament, so please help keep them available...

Please stop buying prepared cacti
 
When I eventually get to consume my peyote buttons, I will do so as an enema (although I'll take a sip first just to know what it tastes like.)

Just a though.

After all, why do you think a lot of ancient enema tools were found burried with some shamans? (I forget the source).
 
Peyote is amazing! I love it so much! Definitely the best cactus!

Happy trails!
 
I've drank WAY too much cacti tea. And IMO the best way to use cacti is by grinding up the chips in a coffee grinder and put them in caps. Making tea is probably less of a hassle, but it is quite disgusting to drink. Caps go down easy and cause just about the same amount of stomach discomfort as drinking the tea without the NASTY flavor.

Buying caps is easy. I bought like 200 (more than i'll ever need) for about $5 from an online auction site. It's a little bit of work to stuff 20 or 30 capsules but your taste buds will thank you.
 
For all those suggesting "eat the chips or capsule them" you need to drop some dried cactus into a little water and see how it balloons to 3 or 4 times it's original size and oozes lots of black and green slime.

Then imagine what that feels like when it happens in your stomach.
 
-grind to a powder
-soak in high proof liquor for a few days
-filter out the solids and evaporate the liquid
-scrape up the goo and roll the balls in flour and eat

I'm not sure they used enemas with peyote tho, it's extremely slimy and squirting a pint of snot up your arse isn't as easy as it sounds(don't ask me how I know).

It's also a lot less effective rectally - and that's even if half of it doesn't run down your thigh.
