As it's easy to see...the list of variables are infinate based on each adjustment and preferences that come into play....so let me clarify that not all the preferences are incorrect or attempts to cut corners.
Now after rereading...let's clear that UP for the record!
Back after geez's first report on success with a longer cook, think it was 18hr, but don't quote that, Ibee replied, "Wait til SWIG gets a load out of a 36hr run."
It wasn't long after that SWIG's corner reported "As good as it gets" product.
In so many words...or something like that.
Ibee also recalls that Geez's confimation was the happiest day in The Kidz lives as a bees because Ibee was running the LWR for months and couldn't convince bees of the selling points!
Shows ya why Ibee's not made a successful career as a salesbee
or quit his day job
Come to think about it....Ibee stayed looped back then as a direct result of the end-result being irresistable...
Hey? Ya think that might bee a good excuse for the invention of "Wareamiese" and Ibee's writing style?
Okay...we'll use that excuse!
Well staying looped only succeeded in not researching the answers for a while which were here all along in the search engine from elder bees such as Osmium and Rhodium.
Once Ibee came out of the loop(As if
....hehehehe), he did search for posts that detailed controlled rxn's.
Only then did two and two make four!
Ibee only reports on his preferred method and his experience with fully reduced product.
Other bees may be using freebase which changes the playing field considerably and the reports and write-ups shoud be followed closely. If reading and following Geez, you won't be disappointed if the instruction is followed as written just as if your reading Jacked's suggestions as written. And the list GO's on for all the trustworthy bees and their contributions.
As we all know....everybees methods are tailored to suit their tastes and experience.
Ibee is far from an expert and only reports what he's been successful at and the above standards are the ones Ibee follows. They are as such with explanations why they're that way. At least the way Ibee perceives them.
The seven day cooks were back to back exactly duplicated but on the third day were combined with new precursors added and cooked for a total of seven excrutiatingly long daze and upon workup was ~30% meth and ~70% pfed.
If a reverse rxn took place we'll never know for sure but every attempt was made at bringing the product to full reduction to no avail...Keep in mind that Ibee had to take samples at various intervals and replaced precursors in guesstimates and that likely influenced what Ibee considered a reconversion.
The runs were slated to replace thankgiving dinner that were started 7 daze before turkeyday and suffice it to say, Ibee spent less time in the kitchen than he spent in the dining room! Well not really cause he was the chef that hosted the dinner and it would have been nice to have a quick pickmeUP for the Before and after KP.
Hope this helps...
Oh....Ibee likes cooking at 95°C and the bare minimum cooktime that produced fully reduced, consecutively was 30hrs with .5ml dh2o added per 1g E.
Ibee bets that others may prefer higher temps (within the ranges above) with the addition of more dh2o as suggested by geez and that would bring the cooktime down to 24 but Ibee just sets his mindset based on HIS preference and seldom deviates from that until necessity dictates otherwise.
Always take note of the writers suggestions regarding their reported successes and the Temp...Cooktime...Ratio for a LWR....they will vary but if they report "As good as it gets" achievements, it won't bee by much from the standard guidelines outlined here.
Way back when, Ibee promised gaurantees to bees that perform the LWR and he's still here since those promises were made so that should speak volumes to any bee that may have any doubts.
Ibee didn't invent the longwetreflux...he stumbled on it by way of a fluke accident and because his yields and quality seemed to differ from others reports he set on a UTFSE joyride and whatta know...The elders have been preaching this very thing for longer than Ibee was a bee.
Had Ibee read more and posted less he'd have had the foresight and salestips to offer sooner than he did!
So it just goes to show ya...following suggestions and reading things that might be considered over yer head might deserve more attention than we place on them at any given time. Not just at the time we GO in search of answers for oue fuck-UPs.
HolyCrap...Did Ware write all that?
Oh well...add another 4000 word assay to the anals of the ARKHIVES!
Sorry Os!
The only thing worse than possibly pissing Os off is the Hour it takes to proofread and edit the damn thing!
