Does anybody know the process involved to do this conversion, i know that the liquid yields far greater powder amounts but curiosity led me to ask this question.

Its one area i have no knowledge in =)

my friend usetta put it in a glass pan and put it in the oven with the door open. not sure what temp it should be set on though or how long to leave it in there.
 
Put the liquid on a plate, place another plate on top of it but be sure to leave a space for the saline to evaporate, place in the microwave oven and bake at intervals of 1 minute until it's just powder. It's the fastest way to convert. You have to put a plate on top because K "pops" like pop-corn and you risk losing a lot of material.
 
Yup. Put the liquid on the plate, put another plate on so that it resembles a flying saucer, leave some space for the saline to evaporate, place in microwave oven, bake one minute, check, bake one minute, check until all that's left is powder. Have fun :) . I also suggest that you first start with 2-3ml and see if you get it right so you won't waste the whole thing if you do something wrong.
 
no oven, no microwave.
use a double boiler.

set a plate, containing the ketamine solution, on top of a pot of boiling water (creating a seal). there's no direct heat (a good thing) but the heat (steam) from the water will dry out the ketamine (ie get rid of the liquid). when its done you just scrape the powder up and you're ready to go.

this is your best bet. inquire if you have more questions, but I think I explained it well enough.
 
you did indeed, its just my mate is on prescription ketamine in liquid form and he wants to powder it to sell =) i'll try out these methods see what happens

I definitely also feel that this is the best method. I miss cookin' K...since I personally chose to IMed/IVed the liquid the smell of cookin' K always meant that money was soon to follow.

that's the best way to go, but that description isn't very good. You don't want to create a seal around the top of the pan- when the air inside expands and the water turns to steam, the plate's gonna start bumping up and down rapidly.

Secondly, you don't want steam blowing on it. That's going to make it take even longer- how do you expect to produce a dry powder when you have wet steam blowing on it?

Just google "Double Boiler" and you'll understand.

Personally, though, I think that pouring it into pyrex and putting it into your oven at medium heat (250F) for an hour or two will work fastest and not result in any real lost.

Hell, you can just leave it in a dry room w/ a fan blowing over it for a couple days (or put it into a fruit/jerky dehydrator) and you'll have it evaporate fine. You'll have no loss due to heat (not that it's a major concern).
 
-in the frying pan... poor in a thin layer of liquid for bout 10 minutes on medium heat...

-you'll see when its ready, it starts bubbling up n turning white, wait till all the liquid has evaporated, ( usually less than ten minutes, you will want to move the pan around a little make sure u get it all) tip it this way n that until you hear no more "crackling sound"....

-You can then put the underneath of the pan in cool water for half a minute to cool down (make sure no water gets in the pan)... makes the next step easier

- then u scrape it off the pan with a card (credit card consistency), this can be quite tedious... i was tought to scrape it onto a newspaper, but i don't think thats essential.... this will get you depending on the size of the frying pan anywhere between 3 to 10 grams in 10 minutes....

-Wait half an hour after its cooked to use... you can use as soon as its out of the pan, but it burns like fuck...

(i wish i still lived in ketaland.... *sigh)

p.s. Don't use ur mums favorite frying pan, as she will notice a distinct smell of chemicals next time she's cookin burgers or wateva... (i would recommend u do not use the same frying pan for anything else once you've cooked ket in it... it shall be from then on "the ketapan")

after a couple of times you'll get the hang of it... it's not rocket science.... ;)
Enjoy

my buddy's plate cracked and broke in half and he lost all his ketamine in the boiling water. After tedious boiling, he was left with less that half the amount he had and that was mainly destroyed from the intense heat of all the boiling. sucked for him. He had to boil liters to recover that.
 
microwave works but its a waste , putting in on a plate and let heat vaporize it its good (like putting a plate with the K in top of a recipient with boiling water for example) but for me the best is to put it in a pyrex and let it evaporate by itself
 
Ham-miltons suggestion of using a double boiler is the way to go. Use steam from boiling water to evaporate the solution, for maximum yield avoid excessive heat/flame.

Actually that wasn't really my suggestion. You don't want steam blowing on it- that's just going to leave you with a wet powder that never seems to dry completely.

While a double boiler is the best way, I think that sitting it in the oven at low heat for a long period of time is just as good. Ketamine isn't particularly heat sensitive, so you don't have to worry about ruining it a whole lot.

Just keep it hot enough that you see a light bit of steam rising off the liquid (not boiling!!) and be prepared to wait a long time.
 
the way i did it was poured the ketamine liquid from a syringe to a glass square from a picture frame and put it in a mini conventional over and placed on low and waited a few minutes untill powder, repeat process till the vial was clean.
 
I just pour it on a pyrex dish and let it dry under a fan for a couple hours. Easy.
 
is this what you mean by double boiler

Thats the kind you buy, but there's no need to buy one (or its one of those pasta straining things). The kind I've ghetto rigged looks more like this, and it works like a charm:
