How can I remove oil based cuts from my crack, like benzocaine, lidocaine, procaine, that can't be removed by recooking in water
SiI recook mine in a plastic Ziploc baggie, I wonder if anyone else does this. Make sure the bag has no holes in it, crush up the crack put it in one corner of the bag, get as much air out as possible seal it, and dunk it in a pot of boiling water, after a few minutes, it will melt all the way down, make sure it melts all the way, and it will separate into 3 layers, soda will be on the bottom, water in the middle and the base on top. If there are other oily cuts they will creep up the bag. Open the bag so the corner is still at the bottom, turn the rest of the bag inside out, so it makes like a stand for the corner, and pop it in the freezer for a few minutes.the base will start to solidify. Pull it out, it will go back to a gel state, very thick but it will still run. While it's like this you can turn it upside down, quickly, it will be like honey, and any water will run out, but quickly so the gel doesn't start to run out. Put it somewhere open to the air like that, sometimes it takes 20 minutes or so, but it will crystallize and get hard, you can see the individual crystals forming in it. When it's solid turn it out on a plate, the soda will be on the bottom, sometimes the water stays with the soda, remove that when you have the chunk out there will be stuff still on the bag, work the bag with your fingers the base will fall off the bag, anything that sticks to the bag, and doesn't fall off, is not base, you don't want it. Whatever has been in the crap I've gotten lately, won't come out this way, because i think the melting temps are so similar
But the oils aren't water soluble?Has anyone tried crushing your rocks up in fine powder and putting it in a small glass with about 2" of water? All the other chemicals dissolve in water and seperate from the rocks. Strain in a coffee filter. It holds the good while draining the undesirables. I do it everytime I cook and love the results
