My first extraction I went with Marsfold tek and pulled out about 2 grams from half a kilo. I just pulled my first naptha extraction after 8 hours using this straight to base method, going to do another 2 pulls at probably 24 hours each and maybe finish with a few small ones at the end. I used a blender to grind up my bark and the NaOH pretty much broke it all down, still plant matter there but for the most part it's pretty much all liquid. I'll post back after I evap the first pull and let you know how it went.

I did 5 pulls over a 3 day period this time around and still got a decent amount on my last pull. I'm recrystallizing right now so in a couple days I'll have my final numbers, but it is way more than I got doing the Marsfold tek over 1 day.

I do, like you said it isn't very time consuming, only takes me about 15 minutes to grind up 500 grams. It makes it a little easier for the NaOH to start breaking down the material so you don't have to wait as long to do naptha pulls after you add the NaOH. I do everything inside of my plastic jug so I like having it ground for when I have to dump it at the end, ground up material is a lot easier coming out than chunks of mushy bark.

I don't know what the film is, maybe some lye or maybe just some naptha that hasn't evapped yet. How long did you leave the naptha in for, I doubt you can really leave it in too long. The lye mix will destroy the DMT after a few days but even if you were to leave the naptha in all that time, whatever DMT made it there will stay. My run that I just got done with I ended up doing three 12 hour pulls and 2 twenty-four hour pulls. Might be able to weigh it out tomorrow, got about 5 times or more than when I did the Marsfold tek but I did all the pulls in one day. If you have the time to do a 3 day extraction I would go for it, turned out way better than I could have expected.
