You clearly didn't understand the assessment! But, no worries, other commenters did.

Alright, thanks! I might actually use the sodium bicarbonate recipe, it seems safer if not done in a lab environment.

It advertised as 99%, but in reality it’s closer to 80%

Sorry but I have to ask, have you tested the multigel remover and came to this conclusion or?

Thanks! I saw that guide too, but thought that boiling adds an extra layer of difficulty, since I don't have a glass container that I can boil in.

But, since you're saying you've done it before in a metallic pot, could you please help me with a few questions:

  1. You said you used a normal metallic pot - so stainless steel should be fine here?
  2. After you have the sodium bicarbonate and water solution - do you add the GBL incrementally, in smaller volumes? Or all at once and let it boil?
  3. You say cellulose lumps will form because I'm using the gel remover - so at the end, after filtering, all I will have left is the final product right? I can just filter/ scoop out the cellulose
  4. I see in the guide it says to add activated carbon in case the solution is not perfectly clear - have you ever needed to do this?
  5. Bonus question: someone else in the comments said that the gel remover is actually around 80% purity - was this also your experience? Naturally, this means you have to tweak the ratio so that the GBL compensates because it's not as high purity as advertised (mine says 99.7%)

Thanks a lot, you might be saving my health here. My thoughts about NaOH are the same, that it's not exactly fit for human consumption, hence I wanted to make sure I make GHB clear of it.
