Note: | This page tracks the development of Amor fati's Compendium for the Extraction of Jurema.[1] The content is to remain accurate as such. |
The extraction of DMT and its analogous mixtures, deemed spice, has long been a cornerstone of modern psychonautical and entheogenic practice. In particular, extraction from the high-yielding, low fat root bark of Mimosa tenuiflora--or MHRB, otherwise known as Jurema--has played a most pivotal role in providing an abundant and reliable source to further the development of various means of rendering and administering spice. Though the bulk of the history regarding this development has unfortunately hinged on the use of hazardous or otherwise unwholesome chemicals common to the production of less savory substances, recent years prior to the authorship of this tek have seen a boom in less toxic, nontoxic and even food grade methods of extraction among other faculties of refinery--many with an astounding capacity for efficiency.
It is the goal of this tek not to simply shed the use of toxic chemicals; rather, the tek seeks to comprehensively illustrate a modern and efficient means of extraction that doesn't require one to go too far out of one's way or bog down one's extraction experience unnecessarily by requiring a hodgepodge of questionable chemicals for which the operator may not ever have any real use for in one's household. If one considers the possibilities of entering the world of entheogenic extraction with a fresh mindset, devoid of the expectation that hazardous chemicals are necessary to that process, the prospect of using such chemicals would hardly be an attractive one and more ready-at-hand materials may be considered.
In this tek, we will explore the implementation of Limtek as alternative to traditionally high volume water-intensive A/B teks that notoriously require at least a hazardous base like lye. Then we will consider the use of various alternative solvents, typically comprising oils like limonene or various types of vegetable oil, as alternatives to odorous and hazardous petroleum based solvents. Finally, we will explore various means of obtaining a administrable extract, whether by salting with food grade acids, or by going a step further to obtain freebase--a process hinging on various manner of implementing of sodium carbonate. More toxic materials like IPA or Heptane may come into play, depending on the route chosen, but one may find even those staples of the extraction community unnecessary with a bit of skillful application.
