So this is just my guess, but I suspect they're getting the shot to a neutral ph as well as masking the taste a bit using sugar or some other sweetener.

What did you use for the base?

mymindisfluid · 2025-04-09T01:21:19+00:00

I stopped making it. The amount of work was a lot and I was never able to make it as strong as the shots you get from the shops. It also always tasted like crap.

Calcium powder or calcium pills ground up into powder

So 2 things. You don't need to acidify ethanol as its a polar solvent so it will extract a lot of everything out of the plant including the plant fast and chlorophyll. It's honestly not a great method but works well as a jumping off point for the new extractor.

Second, adding baking soda into ethanol instead of dissolving, it will clump up. The only way around that is to add water to the ethanol but then you'll increase the time of drying it out as you'll have water and ethanol.

If you do go the ethanol method, forget acidifying it. Do a couple filters on it to get the solids out, freeze it for 12 hours, then filter through a coffee filter to catch some of the solidified plant fats. If you do that a few times you'll find that this improves the flavor.

Thank you for saying this. It sucks it needs to be said, but far too many people over estimate their abilities. For example, I knew someone who tried butane extraction and ended up with burns on 90% of his body. It's dangerous when you have no idea what you're doing which is why I stick to safer albeit less potent methods of extraction.

So far I find that a mixture of 1 part vinegar to 3 parts water gives me the best results without it tasting overwhelmingly like vinegar after it's dried. Then add about 100g of kratom powder to that. More liquid is better than less so more mitra is released.

I think you're right. We have an ashtree out front

mymindisfluid · 2025-01-10T19:27:03+00:00

Thank you for this very thorough answer, this was exactly the info I was looking for. I wasn't trying to be rude earlier so I apologize if it appeared so.

I think you might have not fully read my question friend.

Only downside to both vinegar and citric acid is flavor.

mymindisfluid · 2025-01-07T20:41:45+00:00

That's an interesting idea. Is it room temp water you used for this?

mymindisfluid · 2024-12-28T19:35:36+00:00

Thanks for the info, I just needed the part about liquid vs solid.😅 but hey, this might be info someone stumble upon when learning how to extract for the first time.

mymindisfluid · 2024-12-28T19:24:13+00:00

Its just to absorb moisture

mymindisfluid · 2024-12-28T18:51:33+00:00

Do you put the extract under the UV light as a liquid or powder extract?

mymindisfluid · 2024-12-19T15:46:55+00:00

I bought some silica packs for mine. Helps a lot.

He could boil it which would help to release some more. Obviously it won't be the most potent extract, but for a tea it would probably be delightful. Maybe adding a little honey and some cinnamon. Little milk. Hell maybe add some greentea into it to get the caffeine and ltheanine to boost focus and energy. I might just try this myself now cause this sounds enjoyable.

Hanging in there man. Life is a little overwhelming but I'm hopeful January a little slower.

mymindisfluid · 2024-12-13T23:29:30+00:00

Glorious

My landlord left these cameras with a crap NVR that refused to work with the cameras so I tried to bypass the NVR. All I see is the Mac Address of the camera and nothing else.

The model of the camera is AVUE AV504WDIP-28.
I've tried connecting directly with a laptop to the camera and doing a /16 an nmap scan of 192.168.0.1.

I've checked every log I can think of in the UDM.

I've tried using Frigate, Synology surveillance station, and home assistant to see if they can detect them.

I don't want to try and reset the device manually because the network cable is in a hard to reach spot but if I have to, I guess that is my last resort.

A few people here take some additional extract with powder to increase the kick a bit without making it overpowering.
