does anybody have any Idea about how much "me##alkaloid" could be extracted from 50 grams dried san pedro powder. Thinkin about doing an AB extraction with the powder exactly as I have done with Mimosa powder. Don't see why it wouldn't work. 50 grams might be a little light to work with :) p.s. undried fesh cactus = pukefest
 
There's some good extraction techs on erowid for mescaline. For A-B I've heard using citric acid and manufacturing your own lye works well (it is stupid easy to make from wood ash, and safer than using the industrial lye options available for de-clogging drains and the like). Good luck!
 
IMO it's not really worth doing an A/B on such a small amount.. you can generally expect to get about 1% of the weight of dry Cactus, so around a half gram (of course it could be significantly less or more depending on the potency of your cactus, which can vary a lot)
 
I have heard of people smoking peyote (not sure if I believe it), but eating mescaline is much more common. The non-salt form of mescaline has a fairly low boiling point (about 95F, 35C), with the salt form boiling at around 355-365 (180-185C). This is certainly within the range of a normal lighter, but I suspect that you would probably lose much of the material. Considering the amount that you will yield form 50g dried cactus, I would suggest eating it so that nothing goes to waste. If, on the other hand, you end up with a big pile of crystals, why not try a puff? I'd say its probably worth a try. 8o
 
would it make more sense to just eat the dry powder and skip the ab extraction .I have done this with powered mimosa after taking an maoi . down the hatch with dry powder then funnel a beer(seriously). Its easier to hold down tan tea I think
 
Looking at the Erowid information on mescaline content of San Pedro, you could be looking at anywhere between 160mg to a gram. Although most people who are doing extractions and posting results on forums like these are generally quoting yields of around 1% full alkaloid, which means that you would get around 500mg full spectrum alkaloids. I wouldn't bother with an A/B extraction for such a small one-time dose.

I would make a tea out of this amount. There are different teks for different amount of boiling times, using dried or fresh, how far you reduce it, how you cut the cactus, extra ingredients etc. It's basically just boiling the cactus (dried or fresh, doesn't really matter), straining it out, reducing the tea down to a drinkable quantity, like a shot-glass full. You can go further and make a resin which you can eat very easily.

If you can stomach it, then I suppose you could put the powdered San Pedro in to gel caps and eat them, but I'm not really too fond of that idea.
 
thanks

thanks survived abortion.. I won't even consider fresh cactus anymore in anyway ,tea etc . Eating or drinking it is the most ungodly discusting experience I think I have ever had. A/b extractions are a pain in the ass with fleshy material also.
