I am making this post as i have done extensive searching, and there is no modified Thick-Light Tek on the Shroomery.
So, for my and others benefit, Im posing my own, modified version. 
Feel free to make suggestions to improve it after reading this modified version. Please dont recommend other teks. Instead, i want to just modify this version, not do an entirely different one. I like this tek and im going to play with it for now. But I want the Community's input to improve on the procedure, where possible. Thanks.
My personal comments are in the [ ] brackets. Other members comments will be integrated into the Tek with small footnotes.
The Original ACRB Tek by Thick-Light: https://wiki.dmt-nexus.me/ACRB_Tek_By_Thick-Light
Modified Thick-Light Tek for 100 Grams of ACRB (with Shroomery Suggestions)
Ingredients:
100 grams ACRB 2 liters of water 100 mL white vinegar 30 grams NaOh (Sodium Hydroxide) One quart container of Naptha (Non-polar Solvent)
Supplies:
2 Large quart glass jars with lids or One half-gallon glass jar (must be glass) 3-4 half pint glass jars with lids (must be glass) Several sizes of cooking pots a couple flat glass pryex baking pans one glass 7" glass eye dropper or 10mL (or larger) glass pipette **Critical!** glass measuring cup (must be glass) digital scale thick kitchen gloves teaspoon small glass dish (shot glass works well)
Procedure
Step 1 Place 100 grams of ACRB shredded rootbark in container and freeze/thaw twice. If working with powdered bark, skip this step.
Step 2 Put 100 grams of powder/shredded rootbark into a large glass quart jar. Pour 400 mL of water and 30 mL of fresh vinegar [added 10mL to 20mL as 20mL is not very much to use]. Mix well. Let sit for 1 to 3 days, shaking as frequently as possible. Perform hot water baths (Step 3) during any of those three days. Keep jar in a warm area.
Step 3 Simmer the mixture to near boiling point for 1.5 hrs. Make sure you have a large pot to simmer in so the mixture doesn't boil over. Alternative: Put glass jar in a warm water bath on a stovetop for 2-3 hours.
Step 4 Repeat Step 3 at least 4 times, adding 25mL fresh vinegar each time (if using the simmering technique).
Step 5 Reduce total liquid volume to around 300mL, pour into your extraction vessel while mixture is still warm. (A glass quart jar works well.) Also, you can use your soup jar if you did a warm water bath but a clean jar might be a "cleaner" choice.
Step 6 Place your small glass dish (or shot glass) onto your scale. Tare the scale. Now add 30 grams of Lye (NaOH) to dish/glass using a teaspoon.
Step 7 Slowly pour 30 grams of Lye (NaOH) to the extraction jar and stir. Be careful when adding NaOh, as the reaction can cause bubbling.
Step 8 Pour 120mL of Naptha into your glass measuring cup. Be as close as possible to 120mL but it doesnt have to be exact. Pour this into a clean half pint glass jar. Seal up jar with lid and ring. Heat up a small pot of water so its right around simmering (low-medium heat). Tiny bubbles should form on the bottom of the pot, that means its hot enough water. Place jar in water with lid just above the water. Let heat up for 10-20 minutes.
Step 9 While the soup is still warm (or hot), add pre-heated naptha to the soup jar (pouring naptha into your glass measuring cup, then pouring from the measuring cup into soup jar will reduce spilling). Seal the lid on the extraction jar tightly and with heat-resistent gloves and goggles on, shake the jar over a sink or outdoors vigorously. Do this 6-10 times. In between shaking, place jar on a flat table to let the naptha and soup completely separate from each other after each agitation step. On your last shake, roll the naptha around the jar lightly to reduce emulsions (foaming).
Step 10 Be patient and let the solvent completely separate from the liquid even the red lines that drip down the side. Once everything is completely separated, pull the naptha layer off the top of the mixture using your 7" glass eye dropper or 10mL (or larger) glass pipette (also known as "decanting the solvent") and put in a clean, dry collection jar such as one of the 4 half pint glass jars.
If you pick up any soup mixture, just shoot it into the collection jar and let the soup/naphta mixture separate again. Once you got as much of the oily-looking naptha from the original soup mix, wash your pippete/long eye dropper(inside and out) in warm water, dry then suck the naptha out of the 1st collection jar into another clean, empty half pint glass jar that will be collection jar #2. Continue transferring naptha-transferring using pipette/long eye dropper until you get a clean collection of naptha (free of dark red soup liquid).
After completing this step, you should end up with a milky white yellow-tinted solvent that's cloudy.
Step 11 Once all the naptha has been pulled off, Repeat Step 8-10 at least 3 times. The more times you repeat these two steps, the more yield you will get in the end.
Step 12 Since your actives are now suspended in the naptha, leave the jar to sit for 6-8 hours at room temp and the overly saturated naptha should start to drop the DMT and leave a thick layer of needle-like crystals across the bottom and sides. Get another jar that's clean and dry and pour off the solvent into it. Let the crystals dry then scrape them up and spread them out on a baking dish. Once these don't smell like naptha, they are OK to smoke/vaporize.
Alternative: Evaporate naptha in a solvent-drying chamber immediately and skip the freezing step. This will prevent the DMT from absorbing moisture while it is evaporating from the glass dish. Do this outside to avoid exposure to the solvent fumes.
Step 13 The solvent you poured off should be put in a freezer for 24-48 hours so all the goodies can be freeze-precipitated. Pull off naptha using pipette eye dropper and place into another jar. Scrape the crystals from the jar once they are dry.
Step 14 If the solvent is still cloudy white in the new jar,let it sit 6-8 hours and the saturated DMT should crystallize inside the solvent. If it doesn't, then it's not saturated enough. (this is Step 9, but done to recycle naptha. If you have plenty of naptha, i would consider this recycle step optional).
If that's the case, let the naptha evaporate half way then stick it in the freezer and let it freeze-precipitate for 24-48 hours. At this point, pour off the solvent and let the crystals dry then scrape them up wait till the naptha smell is gone and enjoy!!!!
Step 15: Re-Xing/Clean-Up If you end up with goo or just want to clean up your crystals, place your goo/crystals back into a clean glass jar then add a small amount of naptha. Repeat Steps 10-12 to purify your end product. [I am still unsure of this step, so your knowledgeable suggestions are highly welcomed.]
Additional notes/tips 
Keep the jar in a hot water bath the whole time you are doing pulls, that way the naptha will stay warm and stay saturated until you decant it. Be careful!!! Keep naptha in the jar, as it is highly flammable and putting naptha near heat/flame sources is VERY DANGEROUS.
Plug the sink, run hot water; add a kettle of boiling water every 15-20 minutes or when it starts getting cool.
Filtering the final boils before basing, results in a less than likely chance of ending up with dirty Naptha. [not sure what this means]
If you don't take the time to shake and let the non-polar solvent (naptha) separate at least 6 times on your first pull, it may not contain enough spice to allow room temp crystallization in the solvent. Generally the later pulls produce a sandy colored powder with beige crystals.
Upon Re-X, this sandy powder produces a chalky pure white powder and a tan goo that dries to a peachy tan.
I also boiled the root bark first, then froze it, boiled it again, then froze again. Then while it was soft from the second boil, I used a blender to shred it up almost to powder. I'm not sure if the freezing is essential but it helps to break the bark apart as the water expands and cracks the bark. Applies to shredded rootbark not powdered.
Do not put vinegar during freezing step. Soak it in water then poured it off in the pot for the boils, then freeze and thaw it 2x before cooking.
Don't powder my bark due to the pains of filtering all the sediment as you're doing consecutive boils. However, some sources only offer powdered bark, so this is unavoidable in some cases.
Thats its!
Alright, Im ready for your Shroomery suggestions. I will edit the Tek based on your helpful suggestions.
Thanks guys.

Good news.
The hot water bath technique worked perfectly. Didnt even boil/simmer the mixture once.
What I did was soaked the vinegar/water/bark mix for about 3 days. On two of those days, i did a hot water bath for about 2 hours each time.
Then on day 3, did a short hot water bath to get everything warm, adding the lye, then mixed everything. Jar got real hot, so i let it cool a bit to not crack the jar.
Next, i did a hot water bath to the jar of naptha, 120mL. Added that to the jar. But i missed some and some naptha spilled on the floor Im using a glass funnel or glass measuring cup next time so i dont lose any naptha.
The result of the first naptha pass was just as the original tek describes "very cloudy". It also had a yellow piss color to the naptha.
The second pass was slightly less yellow and not cloudy.m I think i got most of it on the first pass.
I could only do two passes of naptha cause I ran out of time.
Havent evaporated yet, but i am excited to do it soon

Does anybody know the volume of NaOH liquid drain cleaner you'd need to acheive the same effect as 30g NaOH?

For people wondering what ACRB is (like me). It's Acacia Confusia Root Bark.
