 * Rip 500g of bark to pieces with some pliers or wire cutters. Then grind the bark a little at a time in the blender. You should be left with stringy fibers and powder. Place this in the crockpot with one gallon of distilled water. Use a glass eyedropper to add muratic acid to the mix and stir it in until you reach pH 2. Use caution when dealing with muratic acid. Avoid skin contact and do not inhale the vapor. Turn the crockpot on high and let it boil for at least 6-8 hours. Stir regularly. Make sure the pH stays at 2, and if it rises, add more acid.
-* In a mason jar (or erlenmeyer flask if you have one) place 250ml of warm distilled water. Slowly stir in 200g of sodium hydroxide. This is an exothermic reaction, meaning it releases heat. The water will get very hot very quickly so be careful. Add the lye gradually and keep stirring as you do it, to avoid heat stress in the container. Be very careful with getting sodium hydroxide solution in your eyes (can blind you forever) or on your skin, use safety goggles and gloves. Make sure all the powder is dissolved. Let this cool down, and once its at room temperature, pour this solution in the bottom of your gallon wine jug.

 * Place the gallon jug in your rubbermaid tub to catch spillage. I usually cut the bottom off of a gallon water jug to use as a large funnel, and then duct tape it upside-down to the mouth of the wine jug. You will still want someone to hold the funnel for you while you pour. Pour the contents of the crockpot into the jug. You want the bark and liquid to all go into the jug. You may have to pick up the bark fibers and stuff them into the jug after you pour off the liquid. Just get it all in there. You want to fill the jug right up to the point where the neck of the jug meets the body of the jug. The neck will be later filled with solvent. If the level does not reach this point, add warm distilled water until it does. Cap the jug and gently invert it upside down and then right side up again several times, so as to mix the bark solution with the sodium hydroxide but not shake it up and create foam. Foam is bad. The pH of this solution should be 14.

 It would be useful to get a basic lab setup. You can get by with the above materials, but using the proper utensils makes the process more enjoyable and runs smoother. The above is what I use now that I am constantly on the road and my lab must be small and mobile.

 Get all this stuff, if you are serious about extracting and want to move on to other plants, like san pedro, syrian rue, kratom, etc.

-* While the jug is still hot, add toluene. You should have left the neck of the jug empty. Fill the neck with toluene, where the level comes up to about 1/4 inch from the mouth of the jug. Cap the jug, and gently invert the jug for about 10 minutes, mixing in the toluene but not creating foam. Then set the jug on a table and allow the layers to separate completely. This should happen quickly, but it could take hours. Just patiently let it happen. When the layers have separated, use your baster and your pipettes to siphon off the toluene layer, and place it in a mason jar MAKE SURE you don't suck up ANY of the dark bottom layer; this is toxic.

 * Repeat this polar/nonpolar extraction at least 3 more times, combining the toluene in a mason jar. If the toluene from the 4th extraction is still dark yellow, do a few more until it is coming up lighter colored.

 * Allow the plates with your two products to sit out, exposed to the air, for a few hours to completely dry out and harden. Then scrape them up and put them on petri dishes, put them in the crockpot, and cook out the heptane just as you did the toluene earlier. When the products no longer smell of heptane at all, cool them with a fan, scrape them up, and you are done. These are your finished products. I usually get around 8 grams total product from 500 grams of bark.
