My method for extracting DMT from Phalaris Arundinacea
Post by Kent » Thu Oct 21, 2010 22:05
I would like to list here the method I have used for extracting DMT from Phalaris Arundinacea.
I would like some feedback from experienced chemists and/or people that have done this before to be sure that the method I have used is safe and effective.
Ok first, I started off by pulverizing the Phalaris grass clippings into a nearly liquid form.
I then added enough water to make it into a pourable soup.
Then I added enough lemon juice to bring the ph down to about 5.5.
I then let it simmer on the stove for 8 hours.
After that I strained the soup through a coffee filter several times, and discarded the bulk from the plant material.
I then took super tech engine starting fluid and sprayed it down a long plastic vacuum tube, letting the liquid ether drip into the soup and the other vapors evaporate into the air.
I let the mixture sit for another 8 hours until the solvent layer had sunken to the bottom. (I was told that the solvent layer full of fats and oils would float to the top, but it didn't).
So instead of being able to simply remove the solvent layer, I had to strain the mixture through a coffee filter about 5 times.
Each time I strained it through the coffee filter, it would leave behind the darkbrown gunk that I would wash down the sink.
I then reused the coffee filter for the same process, repeating until there was no more brown gunk to discard.
Finally when the mixture was purified of the gunk, I added drain cleaner in small increments until the ph rose to about 9.
I then added more engine starting fluid, spraying it once again down the plastic tube and allowing the liquid ether to drip into the mixture. (I only added enough ether to equal 10% of the total mixture).
I then took the solution inside and sat it under the sink for 24 hours. There does seem to be a white crystalline substance rising to the top of the solution, so I'm thinking I did it right. But I thought it would be a good idea to consult more experienced extractors before testing the final product.
