SMIM is really having trouble. Mixing white vinegar with crack in prep to IV and just ending up with a white muck that is too thick to filter. What to do? Not using any heat, should they be? More vinegar?
 
I created your own thread as you'll get more responses here than in a really old thread.

We don't SWIM on BL and I would consider using citric acid or acetic acid (vitamin C) as using vinegar is not particularly good for you, when I say citric do NOT use lemon juice...

I have no experience with IV crack, however if you need to convert base heroin to heroin salt for IV you usually add the acid and apply heat, I presume this is the same, HOWEVER I would wait for someone more experienced to verify.

Click to expand...

vinegar = acetic acid, vitamin c is absorcic (sp?) acid =D


but yeah, you're just converting base to salt, i'm not entirely sure as to why vinegar isn't working. try adding some more and heating, may just be that it isn't reacting fully.
 
I personally never broke crack down to shoot it but I've seen a friend do it....he takes a lime and puts like three drops in the cooker with I guess about 20 units of water; I can't remember if he heats it or not but he says it's pretty good.
I never understood why he didn't just buy powder to begin with
 
Reason people use crack is because it's a lot lot purer than coke, shooting 5% purity powder isn't exactly healthier than just cooking up a rock..
 
^ indeed.

It is exactly the same principle as we in the UK use to make soluble heroin salt instead of freebase. Add citric acid or ascorbic acid powder and however much water (ideally sterile, even more ideally bacteriostatic water!) you need, head gently if its not dissolving, give it a bit of time. If you stir it try to use something sterile (like the plunger from your needle fresh out of the packet, because I am sure you are using a new needle every time, right? :) )

Never use vinegar - terrible for veins, and never use anything organic such as lemon juice as it will be teeming with bacteria. You need sealed sachets of citric/ascorbic acid ideally. Don't add too much acid either - just a bit, add your water, gently heat, see what happens. Add more as needed.

Bear in mind that the more you heat, the more you are dissolving nasty cuts etc so try to keep this to a minimum.
 
It shouldn't need heat Effie, and as you say it's not advisable. It should dissolve quite readily in cold water so long as there's enough acid to react it.

Mgun, I'm guessing the coke's been washed with bi-carb and there's too much residual bi-carb in the rock you've got and it's cancelling out the vinegar so you're not fully reacting it. Use citric. It's abrasive for one so it will help you grind the rock down in the spoon, and unlike the vinegar you're using you can keep on upping the PH of the solution if needed by adding more. You'll probably get a fizz at first and the water won't clear, so just keep adding a bit more citric a few grains at a time and grind some more till it comes clear. It can take a surprising amount of citric to get there if the crack is poor quality and bulked out with bi-carb, but if you add slowly and don't go mad you should avoid making the shot too acidic. Then you're good to go.

^ Yeah I've always thought things shouldn't need heat at all - if you need to heat it to dissolve, then something isn't right and you shouldn't be injecting that into you.

That was a v helpful post, thank you! :)
 
Hey guys, thanks for the input, and moderator, I will behave and follow your directions.

Only using crack cause I cannot get any soft today.

I'm off to try Sephers good direction. Unfortunately stuck using ground up Vit C tables.

I was getting pretty good at taking big vinegar shots. You really have to be sure of a clran shot or it DOES burn.

Thanks all, will report back.

Problem is, you never know what people have put in crack. I knew a guy that was putting BRAKE FLUID in his crack. Would you want to inject that ?
 
Sepher nailed it really - am going to close this, but if anyone has any queries or if you would like the thread reopening mgun100 shoot me a pm :)

Closed.
