So I understand how to cold water extract. I want to extract 4 Vicodin 5/500. Now my 2 questions are: 1. Will 20mg get me high? As I've never done this recreationally before and 2. How much water do I need exactly for 4 pills?
Thank you
 
1. 20mg should be fine if you haven't got any opioid tolerance - everyone varies, you might find it gets you really high or you might find it doesn't do much.

2. I hate to get someone into bad habits, but it isn't absolutely essential to do a CWE if you are ingesting 2000mg APAP - although I certainly wouldn't make that a regular thing and APAP isn't something to mess around with. My guidelines are no more than 4000mg in 24 hours and no more than 2000mg in one go (and if you are ingesting it regularly, definitely not more than 1000mg in one go - 2000mg should be an occasional thing). Use the minimum amount of water you need to dissolve the pills - you want it to be actual liquid, not sludge, or it will clog the filter - but the less water the better as APAP is ever so slightly soluble in water. With 4 pills and 2000mg APAP I would not worry too much though :)
 
Ok thanks so much! I weigh 160lbs so I think it may effect me. And if it happens to become a sludgy paste, I should just continue adding water till it becomes thin?

Hello waterpolo! Welcome to bluelight mate! :)

I wouldn't worry about doing a cold water extraction for that amount of apap unless you know you already have liver problems, but as effie has said don't make a habit of it.

For a cwe it is not necessary to use ice cold water, you can just use a bottle of water from the fridge, be aware that sometimes you lose some of the good stuff! Take care mate and enjoy :)

Ps bluelight is a wonderful resource, stick around mate, there is a wealth of knowledge on this site and some lovely people :)
 
^ aw I forgot all the intro-to-BL stuff, thanks Acidtek! :)

If it is a sludge, yes keep adding water until it is not or it will clog your filters and you'll never extract anything (is extremely frustrating!) Don't go overboard with the water - like I said, the least the better - but you definitely want it to be an actual liquid not a sludge.
 
Sounds like you did, yes! Enjoy :)

There will be a small amount of hydrocodone left in the paste but it's definitely not a good idea to start squeezing every last drop through your filter as you'll end up with a load of APAP in your filtrate, which obviously you don't want ;)
