cheapo vinegar cactus extraction help
    #14494333 - 05/22/11 02:28 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

so there was approx 580g of cactus tea reduced to resin stored for a while in a freezer...

decided it was taking up space in the freezer, so went with a cheapo route to try to make a better extraction

of course this is on the cheaps using just regular vinegar

any tips on making this better/purer without the addition of other chems, or purchasing more stuff?

a lot of the plant solids and fats (?) have made distinguishable layers at the bottom so thats nice

can i just reduce the vinegar down further and evaporate later to crystallize?


thx

Were you planning on heating the vinegar extraction or just leaving the resin/tea to sit in a vinegar solution for a couple days?

well i want to let it sit for a while so i can siphon off the top layer of vinegar without picking up the solids/fats on the bottom

then probably just heat/reduce it for a long time on low heat

Instead of siphoning you can just strain everything through a cloth. That way you can heat the solution with all the plant matter mixing pretty extensively - you'll likely get more alkaloids that way.

If you were doing an A/B extraction then letting the vinegar sit and siphoning it off would be fine, but all you're doing is an acidified extraction that is going to leave you with an active liquid. When you reduce this liquid you're still going to end up with a type of resin (as opposed to crystals).

i had already cooked the stuff for a good amount of time... i think it was been heated and mixed long enough

it was first in resin form, i then put it in the stainless pot and mixed with vinegar and stirred it up til it was all liquid over heat for at least an hr
