Is the red tar from ACRB extraction actually worth keeping?

Yeah, so I am getting some monster yields out of my new order of bark. (thank fucking god, my last 500g's were yielding absolute shit and I thought it was my fault haha)
Consequently, this is also leaving me with a large sum of the blood-tar that I can scrape off of the bottom of these dishes. Is it worth it to keep it? Is it ACRB colored, active residue, or it is lye paste haha? Fairly certain I didn't get any non-naphtha liquid in these trays so... 
Give me your knowledge, now!

Unfortunately I have no knowledge for you, but I was just wondering what tek you have been using for your ACRB extractions.
I just ordered mine and it will be my first time extracting. I was going to use Thick Light's tek.

Suuup Andy. I presume that's an A/B with vinegar, lye, and naptha? You'd have to have a super bad pull to turn all your shit red. Normally a bad pull is really obvious after precipitation. You can see the origin as an especially dark spot where the concentration is highest, and it sort of gradients outward from the center. A drop of lye turns into a quarter-sized reddish spot from what I've seen.
I'm guessing what you have is regular Acacia goo. For whatever it may be worth, I haven't gotten any goo that I'd describe as being red straight away, but the yellow and orange goo I've gotten turned rust red in about 8 months time, sealed tightly in a tiny container. I assume mine turned red because it oxidized, but I'm still confused about what the variety of colors can imply.
My goo was pretty damn active though. It's really easy to dose if you just dab it on a bowl of herb and run the flame near it so it soaks in. I evicted some chamomile from the comfort of its teabag for my few experiments. It's a gentler smoke than ganj, really easy to hold in, it worked well.

Cmon OP...the answer is obvious.
Theres only 1 way to find out for sure...

Got ph strips? Dissolve a tiny amount of it into a couple drops of hot naphtha and test it. That shit usually goes blue on the strips (base/lye). Did you do a sodium carb wash?
-------------------- The mushroom speaks: '"I am old, older than thought in your species, which is itself fifty times older than your history. Though I have been on earth for ages I am from the stars. My home is no one planet, for many worlds scattered through the shining disc of the galaxy have conditions which allow my spores an opportunity for life... How the hypercommunication mode operates is a secret which will not be lightly given to man. But the means should be obvious: it is the occurrence of psilocybin and psilocin in the biosynthetic pathways of my living body that opens for me and my symbiots the vision screens to many worlds"

I am fairly certain it isn't drops of lye that got in there because I know what those look like. It's just after I get all the white crystals out, I scrape the bottom of the plate thoroughly and end up with a red paste. Which was yellow for my prior extractions which contained much less bark. I'll have to take some rips of it and see what it does to me

I don't keep it.
Could be any combination of the following:
NMT/DMT/plant oil/misc. alkaloids/NaOH residue...
Hit your final collection of nap with a sodium carbonate wash as mentioned above. Absolutely worth the extra ten minutes. -Beta
check out the carb wash I've described at the end of my TEK below.
