|Full range acetate extract from cactus using d-limonene
+
|Clean Liquid LSA Extract
|Powderize your dried cactus. Mix 100 grams of dried powderized cactus with 25 grams of calcium hydroxide. Add 300 ml water to make it feel wet but not watery. Mix for about 5 minutes.
+
|Begin by preparing anhydrous acetone reagent. Do this by microwaving 1/2 cup of MgSO4 for a few minutes until all the water in it boils away. Take the dry MgSO4 and add it to a glass of 300ml acetone, mixing well for 15 minutes. Filter out the solids with a coffee filter and you now have 300 ml anhydrous acetone.
|Add 300 ml of d-limonene. Mix well. Let sit a few hours.
+
|Pulverize your seeds into a powder using a coffee grinder or your method of choice.
|Pour off the d-limonene through a filter.
+
|Thoroughly mix in a glass the seed powder and 100 ml of anhydrous acetone. Mix frequently for 2-3 hrs, the more mixing the better.
{{ShowInfo/In Article|[[Image:Information.png]]|'''NOTE'''|
+
|After this, filter solution and set aside acetone extract in a glass and cover with plastic wrap to prevent early evaporation. Put seed mush back into the original cup and cover with 100 ml new anhydrous acetone.
It's really cool if you use a French Coffee Press for this. Using a French Coffee Press you press the cactus mix and squeeze out the d-limonene to get every last drop of d-limonene out. Then filter it through a paper coffee filter.
+
|Repeat steps 3-4 two more times so you have 3 extractions. After third extraction, discard seed mush and combine the extracts into an evaporation dish/bowl. Set up a fan blowing on the extraction to speed evaporation. Doesn't take too long. Evap to dryness, making sure there is no more acetone smell.

+
|Mix in a glass 100 ml distilled water and a pinch of citric acid (pH 3-5). Add to the dry crude LSA extract and mix well for 10 minutes. Not everything will dissolve. Filter out the solids. There should now be 100 ml of aqueous LSA citrate.
|
+
|Defat this solution with 50 ml naptha, mixing well for 10 minutes. Seperate layers with a syringe and discard naptha. Repeat 2 times. Make sure the second time that there is no remaining naptha floating in your LSA extract after defat.
}}
+
|Now its time to freebase the LSA so it can be extracted from the water layer. Add a small amount of ammonia (around 1 ml) to solution until it changes to a light yellow color. PH should be roughly 8.5-9.5.
|Add 25 ml of vinegar to the d-limonene. Mix thoroughly.
+
|Quickly add 50 ml toluene or DCM to the solution and mix well for 15-20 minutes. After, seperate the layers with syringe and set aside the 50 ml of toluene or DCM in a glass. Repeat this step 1 or 2 more times depending on how scrupulous you want to be. Afterwards, discard your yellow/green water layer.  
|Separate the vinegar from the d-limonene (the vinegar is at the bottom, the d-limonene at the top). This vinegar will contain mescaline acetate. Evaporate your vinegar in a food dehydrator at 155 F to get waxy amber slightly impure mescaline acetate.  
+
|Now with your combined toluene or DCM extracts, set them to evaporate in an evaporation dish/bowl with the aid of a fan. This again shouldnt take too long, and you end up with a pure white crystal residue once dry. This could be consumed, but will oxidize pretty quickly over a few days if left out of solution.
{{ShowInfo/In Article|[[Image:Information.png]]|'''NOTE'''|
+
|Once your pure extract is dry and there is absolutely no smell of solvent in your evap dish, add 10 ml distilled H2O and 5 ml 75% drinkable ethanol. Sprinkle in a pinch of tartaric acid and mix thoroughly for 10 minutes. Filter this, and store in a vial away from heat and light.  
To separate the vinegar from the d-limonene you can use a glass gravy separator or a separatory funnel. Seperatory funnels are considered laboratory glassware and are banned for individual use in some locations. A gravy separator works almost just as well and can be found at some local kitchenware shops.

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.

This product of clean liquid LSA extract glows bright blue under black light and '''MUST BE COMBINED WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF PEPPERMINT OIL''' 10 minutes before consuming for an amazing psychedlic experience. Inferior extraction recipes can leave you with stomach cramps and vasoconstriction, not to mention nausea, and the effects may not be that impressive. A PURE clean LSA extraction using my tek however... Absolutely no nausea, bodyload, or even sedation. It is a euphoric feeling psychedelic quite similar to LSD lasting about 6-9hrs, with very active visuals made up of colors, vibrant pulsing tracers, flashy looking stars and symbols, and intricate geometric patterns. Good luck to all and I hope this tek creates many memorable experiences.
 
+
The result is a waxy amber colored slightly impure mescaline acetate approximately 40-95% pure. It might take a while to dry complete. Have patience.
+
 
+
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.
+
 
+
The alkaloid extract produced from this tech is a mix of various alkaloids. The exact mix of mescaline to other alkaloids present depends on the type of cactus used as well as the individual specimen extracted. Mescaline acetate is a white free flowing powder. If the extract is brown or amber, or sticky, it's got a high number of non-mescaline alkaloids present. It can be used as is for the full spectrum effects, but if one wants a more pure product, the other alkaloids can be easily removed.
+
 
+
In this section we talk about a very simple technique for cleaning up the mescaline acetate by removing the non-mescaline alkaloids.
+
 
+
Mescaline acetate is insoluble in MEK (methyl ethyl ketone). MEK is a solvent that is found in fruit, similar to d-limonene. It's a normal part of the human diet, but only in very small amounts, like acetone. D-limonene is a much safer solvent, but MEK evaporates really fast so it's easily removed from the end product. Please make sure the MEK is dry, otherwise the water content will make you lose all or most of your mescaline
+
 
+
 
+
{{ ProcedureMain | Purification of Mescaline Acetate
+
{{ShowInfo/In Article|[[Image:Information.png]]|'''NOTE'''|
+
Be absolutely sure your MEK is dry, otherwise this wont work and the MEK wash will take your mescaline away. To dry MEK, mix it thoroughly with excess magnesium sulfate (epsom salts), let stand and decant MEK away from bottom layer of magnesium sulfate

+
 
+
| Dissolve 200 mg of impure sticky amber mescaline acetate in 2 ml of cold DRY MEK.
+
{{ShowInfo/In Article|[[Image:Information.png]]|'''NOTE'''|
+
Cold MEK referring to Methyl Ethyl Ketone stored in the refrigerator or freezer (It will not freeze).
+

+
|
+
}}
+
| Smash the impure mescaline finely in the MEK. You want the mescaline acetate to form a fine powder at the bottom. Wait for a while until the mescaline acetate powder sinks to the bottom.
+
| Decant the MEK slowly, being careful not to disturb the mescaline acetate.
+
| Repeat with 2 ml more cold MEK.
+
| After the second wash and decant, dry the mescaline acetate with a fan. After all the smell of the MEK is gone, you're left with off-white nearly pure mescaline acetate.
+
}}
+
 
+
==== Purification Comments ====
+
The impurities removed by the MEK in some cases can be as much as 60% of the alkaloids extracted. The impurities tend to be much less for Peruvian Torch, and very high for Achuma and some varieties of San Pedro.
+
 
+
The amber impurities in the MEK can then be evaporated and used separately. They are typically very sticky and will not form a dry powder even after the MEK is completely evaporated. There are at least two active alkaloids present if the cactus used was San Pedro or Achuma. They are psychoactive, but very much unlike mescaline. San Pedro's impurities tend to be more sedating, similar to the effects of harmaline. Both San Pedro and Achuma have an impurity present that seems to have some MAOI activity which can be used to greatly enhance the effects of morning glory seeds, HWBR seeds, and ololiuqui seeds.
+
 
+
Pure mescaline acetate is a white free flowing powder with a slightly waxy texture very similar to freebase DMT. You'll find that it's much easier to manage after purifying it, being not nearly as waxy, and no longer sticky.
+
 
+
After purification, the experience is a much finer clearer experience far more resembling the effects of LSD, especially when taken with coffee. It is to some, far superior to the effects had from the full spectrum of cactus alkaloids.
+
 
+
For the tech to remain food grade, USP or FCC grade MEK must be used. If technical grade or ACS grade is used, it's no longer food grade.

Dosage Information

It is difficult to accurately measure doses of LSA extract, since potency can vary. In general you can get a rough idea by comparing the ratio of seeds to liquid extract volume. A few drops of peppermint oil should be added to the LSA extract 10 minutes prior to comsuming. I believe this to be a fairly accurate scale of dosage for this extraction procedure:

  • Threshold < 10 seeds worth
  • Light 10-19 seeds worth
  • Common 20-34 seeds worth
  • Strong 35-50 seeds worth
  • Heavy > 50 seeds worth
