My friend of a friend hasn't sampled it yet...but said it looks nice and clean compared to the starting compound.

Seems like this is the best thing ever.
I don't quite understand the tek though.
The bestine and powder are in 2 separate shot glasses, in a pot that is on top of the stove getting heated (how high should I put the flame and for how long do I do this?)
THen I start adding bestine to the shot glass with the powder, but then you say "Remove shot glasses from hot water bath and use dropper to remove hot Bestine from shot glass into a clean, dry shot glass, leaving the oily plant residue behind. Place clean, clear Bestine in refrigerator. It will look like this, all cloudy after only a few minutes"
So are the crystals in the bestine or on the bottom? Or is it the fats/impurities that end up on the bottom of a shot glass? I just don't see how taking out a liquid and putting it in a new shot glass will clean it much, but then again I'm no chemist.
What is the ratio of amount put in to amount yielded? Will I lose some?
Any way to do this on a larger amount? I have about 4 grams as you probably know

trying to answer those:
You definitely lose some in volume, but I dont think you will lose much of the actual DMT if you do it right.
the crystals are in the bestine.
this works because you basically put two things in a solvent which keeps a lot of chemicals in itself because it's hot, and then let it get cooler so that it can keep less substances, and those that are left out earlier are the fats/impurities and they solidify on the bottom. then you get the white crystals out of the bestine same way you did with naphtha.

What are some other good recrystalization solvents?
I really only have access to Naptha and MEK

Its really quite simple. Once you've done it once all will be clear...but allow me to clarify.
You can simply heat the ONE shot glass with the Bestine in it if you want, but this is less than ideal since the idea is to practically supersaturate the Bestine. I put them both side by side in the pot to facilitate the transfer of liquid Bestine to the powder as much as for any other reason.
As to how hot...not very. Bestine and water boil at virtually the same temperature...2 degrees difference, and you should NOT need get anywhere near that hot. Your domestic hot water might be hot enough. You'll see the oily residue and will know you've reached the proper temperature. When the oily residue appears, I can still lift the hot shot glass out with my bare hand, so how hot can it be??? I DON'T think you can overheat it, but why vaporize dangerous fumes more than you need to??? BTW, Bestine smells fairly pleasant, but don't do this in a confined space, either...again, flammability concerns.
A good thing to do to keep vapors to a minimum is to take a small piece of aluminum foil and put it over the shot glass with the Bestine in it. Should have mentioned that in the original tek.
Once the oily residue is apparent, lift the shot glass from the water (better visibility) and use the dropper to remove the supersaturated Bestine into a clean shot glass or other small receptacle. If you've REALLY done it right, the liquid will cloud up as soon as it hits the cool glass/jar/shot glass.
When you refrigerate or freeze it (uncovered) it will be a thing of beauty in only a 1/2 hour or so...but let it stay for a good hour. Pour off and re-use the cold Bestine.
Try it on a small sample first...like 1/4 gram (250mg) or so, just to see how it goes.
Finally NO OPEN FLAMES!! Do not use a gas stove for this!!!
N.B.

Don't know. You can order Bestine on-line or find it in many arts and crafts stores. It is useful as a label remover.

Wow this is nice, I'll try this next week so I can know what clean DMT tastes like 
Doesn't seem too hard, but I have a gas stove. Would I be able to add the bestine shot glass into a pot of HOT water? (faucet probably)

http://www.henkelcamsds.com/pdf/537973%20LePage%20Contact%20Cement%20Thinner-Cleaner.pdf
If I cant use it then what else could I use to do this tek with
Also can I do this recrystalization a few times to get it purer and purer
