so i finally sucessfully did the extraction, i used this method with MHRB and it worked http://www.dmtdrug.com/dmtextraction.htm. i did the ammonia wash at the end and it settled down in the filter and started to dry, i wanted to share with some friends so i left it in the coffee filter to dry and i had the coffee filter pushed down into a mason jar with the edges over the side so it was basically a funnel without a hole. i capped the jar because i was transporting it, i put it in my car and to my friends house i went, i had to stop at my job for about 10 minutes, so i did. total time from my house to my job to my friends house was about an hour, it was hot and the stuff was in my car, when i got to my friends house and uncapped it was gone and the filter where the stuff was sitting was hard , what i am asking is if you think it might have melted from the heat, because it was about 95 deg. farenheight out and i have a black car, black leather and no A/C. And another question is how do i store it, jar, bag, ect. and should i keep it in the fridge, any info for a Newbie would be appreciated.
Melting point is pretty low, so I'm sure that's what happened. http://www.erowid.org/chemicals/dmt/dmt_chemistry.shtml If I had some, I'd store it in a glass, air tight container in a cool dry place (like a small mason jar...without the filter.) Some people store it in the freezer. I think it's pretty stable. I've heard it will oxidize if left out for a long time. Make sure it stays cool when transporting. < 90F for sure. If you think it melted into the coffee filter or jar, you may be able to soak the filter it in a little warm naptha, remove the filter, and then re-crystallize the naptha in the freezer. Depending on how much it was, it may be worth a try.
Yeah, it definitely melted into the filter. You're gonna want to heat up about 15-20 ml of naptha per gram of DMT in a hot water bath to just under boiling. I'd cut the filter into small pieces. Soak it in the hot naptha for a few minutes or until you're sure everything has dissolved. Strain it through a coffee filter to get all the filter particulate matter out, then throw it in the freezer for at least 6 hours. I do it overnight. In the morning, swish the cold naptha around to knock everything off the sides of the jar and run it through a coffee filter. This should leave you with some nice, pretty, white crystals. If it looks all fucked up and yellow, do it again using a little less naptha. I usually store mine in a safe. It stays fairly cool in there. You should find some kind of glass container to keep it in.
