hey chris cantelomo here with another vibration i'm in my kitchen here i'm going to do a quick prep for mimosa hostilis you'd see my grateful dead posters i'm a big fan of the grateful dead and this poster is an interesting one this is a i've got what number 333 out of 500 of this particular print you notice that grateful is spelled incorrectly there's a a poster that was done in the what 1970 or something they had been around long enough where people should have known how to spell grateful grateful dead but anyway so what i've got here this is a hundred grams of powdered mimosa hostilis apparently from hawaii i can't verify that for sure but supposedly from hawaii and that's a crock pot there and this is a measuring cup and what we're going to do is i'm going to show you what i how i like to purify emt from this stuff and i want to what i want to get across you is how simple the process is people get real nervous about doing it it's so easy you don't need one of those to do it so don't worry about that part the main thing that freaks people out when they start doing this is they think that chemistry is difficult or that you in this particular purification that things need to be precise they don't so let's get at it this is what you do you take your bark put it in your crock pot now what i like to do is add enough water so there you can just can i can we get in there can you see what's happening here that's what that looks like right there i'm gonna do that now i'm gonna that's a hundred grams so i'm gonna start with uh i i think i'm gonna need about i'm gonna put about let's see if we had one cup that's about one cup what you want to do is you want to get all the bark wet without adding so much water that you that things get diluted see i might add a little more so right now that's about two cups and you wanna i'm creating a little bit uh of you can see the powder that dust coming up you don't really wanna just inhale this dust it's not particularly good for you just like any other dust anyway so you do that you can see you get it just like you were making tomato sauce or something stir it around a little bit you want to get all the bark nice and wet and now i'm gonna go grab my i'm gonna go grab my vinegar be right back sorry about that should have had this ready to go so now i just take my uh distilled white vinegar and uh i'm going to pour i don't know maybe maybe half a cup just a little you just want to just want to acidify things i'm going to add another i think we're going to need about another so a total of a cup add a half a cup of uh vinegar bring it up to another cup so now i've added a total of three cups to 100 grams and we're going to mix it all up stir it up stir it up just like you're stirring up your pasta sauce or some kind of chili like a thin chili or something i don't know you get it you get the idea you can smell the vinegar coming up mix it up okay get your cover of your crock pot mine's a little dusty from the last time i did this and we're going to uh we're going to turn it on and why is it coming on oh is it plugged in there we go and now i'm going to put on low heat for uh let's put it for three hours we're gonna let that go and what what's gonna happen there what's gonna happen here is the uh right now the dmt is is in it's probably a assault in the uh in the cells it's it's uh existing probably uh uh in an ionic form and and and this in this process the the vinegar is going to help break down the cell walls and and because you want to release the tmt you got to get the dmt out of the cells break down cell walls break down cell membranes release it into the solution the acid helps that the acid also helps to increase the ionic strength of the the solution so that later when we do an extraction the uh you want as few fats as possible to dissolve to be associated with the water the higher the ionic strength the less problem you have with that but really the um the vinegar at this stage really just helps break down the cell walls i think and uh so we're gonna let that go now and then uh i'll make another video in three hours or when that's done i'll probably up what i'll probably do is just let it uh turn it off in three hours and let it sit overnight doesn't matter you can do it this stuff isn't time sensitive or anything it's real these compounds are really stable so i know a lot of people get crazy in the in the beginning of a gordo tech and they want to weigh everything out perfectly you know don't don't get silly don't get crazy this is a very simple extraction the only the the only critical part of this whole process and you'll see it in a subsequent video is when you once you've once once the the dmt is in solution as a salt right now that's an acidic solution you need to bring the solution to increase the ph has to be up to ph 12. it can be ph 13 could be ph 14. all that has to be is above ph 12. it doesn't have to be precise at all this is really just bucket chemistry so and you can tell when you when you when you get to the right ph because the solution goes from from a deep purple to black goes gray and then black and as long as it stays black when you stir it up you know you're above ph 12 and it and all all way out enough uh we're gonna we're gonna see how much solution comes out of this and based on the total volume we have we're going to add enough sodium hydroxide to make sure by the book that it's ph 12 or above but you'll see it's not it's as long as it's greater than ph 12 or at least ph off it works it's not that critical so see this stuff is easy you can anybody can do this it's very simple more to come chris can't tell mark here hey guys chris kantamo here with a another vibration this is the part two of the purification process now part one was i'm sorry the first time i posted this part i got taken down by youtube i don't know exactly why so let me start by saying that in this video i'm not going to actually i i i think the reason it might have been taken down is because if there's there's one you have to be careful in this step it's there's one dangerous step in the purification process and that's when you after you when after part one right there's the bark you got it in your crock pot all right you leave it to boil leave it to heat up and then what you do is you pour it out of there and you and you put it in you put it in a um and that's i've already added a little bit of nap to that but basically you pour it into a um a jar like that and then what you have to do is you have to add a base to it and that's sodium hydroxide or calcium hydroxide is what's used and when you whether or not you're working with um purifying dmt from rootbark or anything else anytime you add a solid base to water if you add sodium hydroxide to calcium hydroxide crystals to water it heats up because when it when it dissolves it's an exothermic process exothermic means heat releasing and it gives off a lot of heat in fact if you add the sodium hydroxide too quickly you can actually reach the boiling point of water so the water can boil up steam can come up and it's got sodium high base in it it's like the sort of you have to think about bases the equivalent of acid just in the other direction is just as co it's just as it'll burn you just as much as an acid as battery acid this stuff so you have to be really careful so now so i'm not going to show you how to add the base because i don't want youtube to think that i'm you know saying anything that isn't um i'm trying to give you guys i know here's the deal we all know that everyone's gonna be doing it out there i went to yale i've got a degree in biochemistry and biophysics from yale you want somebody like me to tell you guys how to do this this is the the uh i like this stuff okay i got it off amazon so here's the deal after you pour out of the into a mason jar you want to use uh the amount that i put in here i got out about uh i don't know about 200 ml something like that basically the deal is you want to add about 80 grams sodium hydroxide per liter of the water that comes out of here you got to do it real slowly you got to mix it in slowly add a little bit at a time stir it up add a little bit of a time stir it up a little bit of time stir it up don't let it heat up don't let it boil just take it slow it might take you 10 minutes to stir it all in that's what you want to do and then once you've once you've done that then you just take your naphtha you take your naphtha you don't need to you don't need to get crazy measuring out you just just take your nap and you pour it in like this you know what you just pour it in like that and i like to i i don't want to waste this right now because i've already got some in there but basically you just pour it in then you'll see the nap that sits on top of this of the the water part is the dark part on the bottom and the nap is on top and what happens is it's quite interesting when before you you add the base to this when it's ph it's a low ph the dmt likes to be dissolved in the water and a little bit might dissolve in an after but not much it stays in the water but when you increase the ph to ph 12 by adding the sodium hydroxide then the dmt is just as happy in here as in here but the water doesn't want it anymore so when dmt dissolves in here it can't get back out and so it all stays up here so after you add the naphtha to the dmt to the to the solution to the to the basified solution which is ph 12 you add naphtha all the dmt dissolves in here and it can't really get back out so over a few hours add some add some nap the weight wait about three hours when you add a nap that you can you don't want to really you don't want to shake it up but you can just do kind of one of these stir it up a little you see it might get a little cloudy you get some bubbles sort of formed in there and then you let it sit and it it'll separate and then you can you can if you're going out to the part three you can see what to do next so uh this is uh it's very simple you can see it's a very simple process so hopefully this will stay up there guys be careful you want to be careful the the the you know that nap is flammable but really careful with nafta but it's just like you know if you're gonna if you oil paint and you want to clean your brushes you but you would use nafta to clean your brushes so you don't have to you know you have to be just as careful as a painter as an artist artists don't often blow themselves up or burn themselves gotta be careful gotta use your head the naphtha is it's the the stuff you use i mean i'm sorry the um sodium hydroxide calcium hydroxide it's it's no more caustic than you get a lot of uh industrial uh drain uncloggers that you buy so you got to be careful with that stuff you don't want to get it all over you don't want to get in your eyes it's if you do get some on you wash your hands off with water just rinse your hands good it feels if you have it on your skin you can feel it under water because your hands get real slippery it's real soapy feeling so you just rinse your hands until until that soapy feeling is gone and then and then the base is off your hands so uh if i if you have any questions after viewing this just let me know in the comments and i'll address them see ya chris cantalmo here with another vibration hey guys sorry for that strange introduction uh now i got a little surprise for you guys you're gonna like what you see now when we last got together we had after boiling the bark in acetic acid a little bit of vinegar water and acetic acid water and vinegar boil it up then you take that solution and you put it in a mason jar and you add sodium hydroxide to bring the ph above 12. then on top of that you pour naphtha and you get something that looks like this that's the aqueous solution where the dmt s started this is an app that the dmt diffuses into the the naphtha and can't really has trouble diffusing back out is the way you should think about it now at this stage what you do is you take a i like to use these glass dishes i got these on amazon i'm just going to demonstrate here real quickly take one of these glass turkey basters and you put your dish right up against there can you see that now what i'm doing is i'm sticking the turkey baster just in the top you don't want to get any of that black you don't want the aqueous you just take this part put it right in that dish back in slurp it up it's really easy until you get to the very low when you get it almost all out here i'll just do it real quick you just want to get that just the organic natural layer you don't want to take any of that the aqueous purple layer below that's the whole reason i have the napa to get rid of that purple there now as you approach the bottom of this you have to suck a little more carefully and now what i like to do instead of usually i squeeze the really squeeze in on this turkey baster when you when you have a lot up there when you get closer to the bottom you just squeeze a little bit and put the tip of the turkey baster right at the top of the napa and just slowly do that a few times you don't have to go crazy because what you're going to do see okay there we go so and i usually leave a little not the at the bottom because we're going to add more napa to that to do what's called the second pull so now what i do is i put a put the lid on like that then i stick that right in my freezer let it sit overnight now i've already done this to that that batch that i started earlier now guess what you're gonna get the surprise i think you know what the surprise is here it comes guys what do we have here look at that those crystals did i tell you it's so simple guys so simple don't be afraid of all this tech word stuff okay so now what you do is you pour off i'm so excited hold on [Music] i've always got a bunch of these these dishes going okay so what you do is you just take this and you pour that off i'm going to lose a few crystals here because i'm not being too careful just pour that off because we're going to reuse that and the crystals if you lose a few crystals doesn't matter we'll get them later look at that look at all those crystals now you want to what we want to do is now get rid of the the naphtha right so we're going to put down a few paper towels like this see that there's a paper towel you take out some paper towels you fold them up like that just fold them up you don't need to be fancy take this you turn it over like that see that you turn it right over on the paper towels see that we're gonna let that sit for about 10 minutes what i like to do is even i like to tilt it a little bit so i'll put i'll put something like that see that it makes it tilt a little so that so the nap the excess napa goes down here and then drips down there collects on the paper towel now listen i gotta remind you guys that nap is flammable that'll burn that'll that'll burn your house down it's like it's like goes up faster than lighter fluid you want to burn your house down is that what you want i don't think you do be very careful with that naphtha stuff if you burn your house down you burn you blow yourself up and you you you it defeats the whole purpose of purifying dmt you got to use your brains you're not children children shouldn't be doing this this is adults only type stuff you're working with a flammable uh solvent i'm doing this in my kitchen because the lighting is better and you can see it's possible to do in your kitchen if you're careful but i recommend you doing it out in your garage do it on your wood shop do it in your neighbor's garage even better you get you get the idea guys just be careful it's real simple very safe to do if you're careful and we are careful now let's just talk real quickly about how to how to clean up after this stuff what you're going to do is you're going to keep recycling that naphtha you saw i just poured it off and we're going to i put that back in the freezer and you just keep reusing that over and over you lose a little bit each time like when this is what i'm going to do my last pull out of here you can see i'm going to get closer and i'm going to get i'm going to get almost all that off i can't ever quite get all of it off without taking up some of the purple stuff so what i'll do is typically i'll add more i've got some more brewing in here so i'll add more to this mix it all up so i try not to ever waste that that little bit but you know after a while it ends up coming up here and you gotta you have to eventually have to part with a little of it that's life you want to keep reusing that map as much as you can now at the end you get you guys who are paying attention you'll know that that is ph 12 solution and and what what the the particulates after being in base hot base too it gets real gooey so this is not unlike right there so now what would you do how would you get rid of drano if you had to uh get rid of it you don't want to put too much of it you don't want to pour tons of this stuff down into your septic tank or your the sewage sewer system that's not pretty nice especially if it goes right out to the ocean but so what you can do is you can go back and add vinegar to this right if you add vinegar right now it's ph 12. if you add vinegar back you add a if this is uh i've got four cups of um total solution there you add a couple of cups of vinegar to that which kind of bring it pretty close to neutral then it's you can you can uh if you've got a good toilet it's not gonna hurt your your your septic tank or your sewer system at all if you can what i like to do is uh i take this and i put it in five gallon buckets i get those orange home depot buckets pour it into a bucket i'm sorry neutralize it then pour it into a home depot bucket and i let that dry out right and what you what you're left with is a salty sodium acetate salty brew that if you got a big big yard and you can put it on a compost and dig it around if you know if you're not you know if you only use do this once in a while and you don't have a lot you can dig it into a compost in the bugs i'll eat that stuff and break it down if you have a big open area of but i guess most people don't most people don't have a acre and a quarterback yard like i do to allow bacteria and soil bugs to break down this stuff so what you do if you if you need to after you dry it out in your home depot bucket it's just like just a salty salty uh mud you've got salty salty dirt stick it in your trash can put it in the ash there's nothing there's nothing uh dangerous about it toxic about it so uh after this has been sitting for a little while and what i do is i just turn that turn this over like this look at all those nice crystals in there and i stick that in a um in a drawer dresser drawer and it's uh it's all um bare wood inside and it just sort of you know what the little bit of uh napa that's left just gets i live in a very dry environment so in just a few hours there'll be very little napa left on those so it looks like tonight we're going in to see some jesters now what are the takeaway messages it's very very simple to purify dmt it's a very safe process if you're unless you're stupid and which if you're stupid just don't do it but you gotta be pretty stupid to screw this up and to hurt yourself you know where to find me i don't usually read comments but if you have questions i'll check the comments in this one direct your questions i'll answer them in a future video chris cantona here with another vibration see you howdy people chris can't tell here with another vibration hey listen up now i've been trying to simplify the cantomotec even further and i want to eliminate that vinegar step in the beginning you don't need it and here's what you do you freeze you get your bark and you cover it put it in your you i like to put it in these you know the uh crock pot croc put the bark in you cover it with water and then you stick it in the freezer see that there's a freezer you see that this is where i keep my i keep my dishes full of here's one here let's this is a i don't know if you can see the crystals down there this isn't this is like a where is it see those crystals down there this is like the that's the fourth or fifth pull out of them out of an extraction so just the last [Music] we don't want to waste any this is precious so anyway what you do you put the bark in your crock pot and you cover it with water and freeze it and then you put it through eight hours of low setting on this some i have a bella crock pot they're all the same problem i don't know put it through eight hours heating turn it off let it cool down stick put it back in the freezer and after the first eight hours of of the crock pot the the liquid in there will be still be kind of clear it'll be it'll be purple but it will be a clear purple then what you do is you put then when it cools down put it back in the freezer leave it overnight in the morning take it out and leave it out for a few hours so that the ice melts now you can have purple liquid water liquid aqueous liquid around it around the bark and then you take that the bark and the liquid and you put it in a in a blender i use a uh this is a ninja blender but any any any food processor blender will do that's the blade i used and the ninja so you pour the contents of the the uh crock pot into there and you and you blend it you try to break up the bark as best you can and it's easier once it's been through a few cycles of heat and cool heat and cool and then you stick it back in the in the crock pot and and put it on low for another eight hours and what happens is the the liquid now goes from the clear clear purple to a sort of a chalky chalky purple and when you get that chalky purple that's an indication that all the cells have because the whole the whole point of of uh boiling and and you know adding the um the uh vinegar in the beginning is to help to break down the cell walls and basically you want to suck them you want the dmt to come out of the cells the best way to do is to break the cells the best way to break the cells is to freeze them and expand them and it breaks the cell walls and i found that two cycles of this does it great and if you don't have to add the vinegar in the beginning you add less base because in 30 minutes when this is done i'm going to let it cool down i'm going to put it in a mason jar like you saw in the other videos and i'm going to add base to bring the ph above 12. and if you don't add the vinegar in the beginning you have to add less base to bring the ph above 12 and what we want to do because you guys are going to get in the habit of doing this a lot and the more base you need to use the more the more expensive it is the more the more materials the more expensive it is we want to use as few materials as possible and we want to create as much as we want to create as little impact on the environment as possible so if we can use less sodium hydroxide less base at the end of this when we want to when we need to uh dispose of the the extracted products we want to be nice to mother nature so the less base we add the less vinegar we need to add at the end to neutralize it so that we can put it down the toilet or put it in our gardens or put it in the trash so try the uh try the heat freeze heat freezing and two cycles seems to work three cycles would probably be just blow it out that you know hit it right out of the ballpark and get huge yields in the first extraction chris can't tell me here with another vibration
