Non toxic food safe extraction of mescaline using d-limonene (orange oil)
Procedure
Comments
The great thing about this tech is that is it 100% food grade and non-toxic. You can buy food grade calcium hydroxide at many places, it's often called hydrated lime and is used in cooking (making pickles, tortillas, etc.). Make sure to use non-toxic food grade d-limonene, that way if any d-limonene residue is left behind its safe to ingest it. Use regular white vinegar that is 5% acetic acid.
The result is a waxy amber colored slightly impure mescaline acetate approximately 85-95% pure. It might take a while to dry complete. Have patients.
SWIM has used this tech and got yields you cannot believe. Mescaline acetate is a little waxy, and tends to stick to things. It's texture is not as nice as mescaline HCl which is much more powdery in texture. However, SWIM has found that mescaline acetate is stronger by weight than mescaline HCl. He's not sure why. It should be weaker because it's heavier. I believe it absorbs faster and that's why it's stronger. It definitely comes on much quicker than mescaline HCl does.
The purity of this extraction is good enough for a great trip. You really don't need 99% purity. At about 90% pure, it's concentrated enough to put into gel tabs for a really nice convenient trip without all the bulk of the cactus. At this purity level mescaline acetate is still a little stronger than 99% pure white mescaline HCl. SWIM has both and has compared them many times already. The white 99% pure mescaline is prettier and is not waxy, so it's easier to deal with, but it's less potent with otherwise nearly identical effects.
Note that this tech was developed for San Pedro cactus but should work equally well for Peyote, Achuma, and Peruvian Torch.
Dosage Information
Here are the dosages as stated on Erowid for mescaline HCl. The dosage for mescaline acetate is nearly identical, but this extract is roughly 90% mescaline acetate plus some other active alkaloids so this dosage guide is fairly accurate for this extract.
- Threshold 100 mg
- Light 100 - 200 mg
- Common 200 - 300 mg
- Strong 300 - 500 mg
- Heavy 500 - 700 mg
SWIM does not recommend more than 200 mg for a first time experience. 100 mg is enough for SWIM to experience some minor psychedelic effects. Below that it’s mostly just a pleasant euphoric stimulant very similar to MDMA. SWIM can feel the effects of as little at 50 mg of mescaline, but it’s not psychedelic at all at that dose. For him, the psychedelic effects kick in at about 100 mg, but are mild. At 200 mg the psychedelic effects are very noticeable, but not too heavy. At 300 mg and above, it becomes quite a heavy experience from many people.
Dosage Using Gel Caps
The following shows how much dry mescaline acetate (extracted using this tech) will fit into the specified gel cap if tapped down tightly. Using this information you can measure doses without the use of a scale.
- 1 size "5" holds 65-75 mg
- 1 size "4" holds 110-120 mg
- 1 size "3" holds 165-175 mg
- 1 size "2" holds 205-215 mg
- 1 size "1" holds 280-290 mg
- 1 size "0" holds 390-400 mg
- 1 size "00" holds 540-550 mg
- 1 size "000" holds 790-800 mg
Most people find a size "5" to be very euphoric without psychedelic effects.
A size “3” is a good starter dose. That’s enough to know what mescaline is like without being blown away by it.
A size “0” and larger should be avoided unless you’re really comfortable with mescaline.
Pictures
Here's a picture of a glass gravy separator which can be used to separate the vinegar from the d-limonene. The top filter is removable.
To separate the d-limonene (orange oil) from the vinegar solution, simply pour the solution into the gravy separator (with the filter removed) and wait for it to settle into two separate layers. If any d-limonene gets into the pouring spout, just pour that out and put it back into the gravy separator. Then pour out the lower vinegar layer. The d-limonene stays on top of the vinegar and won’t come out of the gravy separator until almost all the vinegar is out. It takes a little practice to get the handle of using it, but once you do it works really well.
Here are some pictures of what the resulting crystals look like up close. The first is from the center of SWIM's evaporation dish where the white waxy mescaline acetate crystals are about 95% pure. The second picture is from the perimeter of his evaporation dish were the mescaline acetate is about 70-80% pure. You can see amber colored alkaloids surrounding the mescaline acetate crystals making them appear amber. At least one of these other alkaloids is psychoactive.

Pure white mescaline HCl from cactus using d-limonene

Procedure for Pure white mescaline HCl from cactus using d-limonene | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1. | Powderize your cactus. Mix 100 grams of bark with 25 grams of calcium hydroxide. Add 300 ml water to make it feel wet but not watery. Mix for about 5 minutes. | ||||||
2. | Add 300 ml of d-limonene. Mix well. Let sit a few hours. | ||||||
3. | Pour off the d-limonene through a filter. | ||||||
4. | Add 25 ml of water with 5 ml of 10% HCl solution to the d-limonene. Mix thoroughly.
|
||||||
5. | Separate the water from the d-limonene (the water is at the bottom, the d-limonene at the top). This water will contain mescaline HCl. Evaporate your water in a food dehydrator at 155 F to get sticky brown impure mescaline HCl. | ||||||
6. | Repeat steps 4 and 5 at least 2-3 times, | ||||||
7. | Repeat steps 2 - 6 at least 2 times. | ||||||
Ok, now you have a bunch of sticky brown impure mescaline. You first wash it with acetone about 2 times. You use about 20 ml of acetone for each wash. With the acetone covering the mescaline, you small the mescaline and much as you can. You want to powderize it in the acetone. Wait for all the particles to settle down and then carefully decant your acetone so that none of the mescaline is decanted with the acetone. Repeat it with 20 ml more acetone. Ok, at this point the mescaline is usually very light tan and it's difficult to get it pure white with more acetone washes. So we now wash with 99% isopropyl alcohol one time. We use about 20 ml. It must be 99% isopropyl alcohol. Pour it over your light tan crystals and mix it. Let all the pieces settle down. Now carefully decant the IPA leaving behind pure white mescaline HCl. |
