Sudafed : Metho + dH20 = No More! (OzBeez)

(1/3) > >>

Martian_A:
OK, well, seems within the last 3 weeks, most new orders of Sudafed *originals* have been modified and now include hems which kill a meth extraction.

It looks like the original extraction of Pseudo-ephedrine from Sudafed (Nasal & Decongestant (60mg x 30)) is No longer possible. From what I know which may already be common knowledge to the rest of the planet is PEG being the culprit of failed rxn's. Although looking all nice and normal when reacting and filtering the rp, as soon as your solvent and lye are added, expect a nice green cheddar cheese like emulsion to own your batch. Possibility of Povidone also being added as expecting a minimum total of 6g's at the end of the cook, ended up being no more than .4 from each pull attempted. All pulls + Peroxide added to push the oil into the solvent, the total yield was no more than 1g.

SWIM's comments refer to the ORIGINAL sudafeds in the squarish packets, the tablets, not the caps.

NO physical changes are noticed, the size of the pill, the stamp and the box remain exactly the same.

DO not be fooled, as I no doubt have been and have wasted my HI.

This scenario kicking in all doubt about considering any future cooks.

Any comments, or insults, please post.

In all n all, gratitude towards all bees within the forum, from no knowledge and nothing more than ambition taking control has lead me from a newbie with no comprehension of the reaction to a newbie with some comprehension and now having the knowledge to complete a rxn successfully *appart from this time* :: May the world be blessed by methamphetamines, sex and single white females:)

* peekin from a dud cook? im a dero.

Amnesia:
Really? not shit sherlock, metho pulls dont work. Get up to date.
And dont you understand the rules? NO SOURCES means "NO SOURCES"

I wouldnt of been suprised if you told me that metho pulls wernt working a YEAR ago.

If thats what you've been doing down here in oz then you have a very tough road in front of you.

abominator:
This may be a bit off topic, but anyhow swim don't see how you Oz bees seem to think that we have pill extraction easy?  Yes we do have inactive labels.  No they do not list all the gakks, either.

Dude if H2o/methanol pulls just quit working for ya, then you have been one lucky sonofagun!  After all, I can't assume that an OZ bee would settle for sub-par gear from non-pristene precursors. ;)

Even though I promised BlackBmw and p1e2r3f4e5c6t7 that I would keep my american ass out of Ozzy pill threads, but if that is all you guys have been dealing with then I can see why I was told to but out.  I just simply wasn't needed. ;D   I don't understand the pill situation down under.  Do you guys even have Eudragit yet?

Some solutions for yer gakk:PEG can be eliminated by a Naptha simmer, not sure the proper sub for that in OZ.  If povidone is present a 24 hr. xylene soak will rid it.  The anti-hists in the sixties are soluble in Acetone and MEK.  A couple of boils and they'll bee history. 

Before you decide on any method, note that one any older than four months won't work on the Eudragit gakk.  Their are many methods in the stim faq.Post 408293 (Rhodium: "The Stimulants Forum FAQ", Stimulants)

Uncle Fester and EvilScripter69 both have doable cures for the new nasty.Post 529156 (evilscripter69: "Best extraction method. well tested", Stimulants)Post 501189 (missing) (UncleFester: "publishing emergency", Stimulants)(this is Fester's first actualy experiement in the thread)

abominator,
You better stay out of the Oz threads.

If this guy has only realized that the old ways of methos pulls aren't possible anymore, then he either just finished working his way through a very old stockpile of pills or he is admitting that he is one of these oldtime oz cooks (hypo) that used to get away with making that peanut butter shit that they call pure.

Before you reply, the hypo (and Birch)) reaction(s) are renowned for being able to have very reasonable outcomes with very substandard precurser. So either he used to make really bad gear like peanut butter, or up until now he was using an old stockpile of pills. Because those pills as far back as I remember (6-7 years) have alwasy required more then EtOH and/or H2O.

So which is it, old pills or you make crap?

The reason I want to know is I would love to hear from an Oz cook that makes or used to make that crap. Because we only make pure crystals here. But I have never heard from one that makes or used to make that 10:1 crap that was considered the norm in Australia years ago. Still, I can't complain, if it wasn't for that crap, I might not have been interested in learning the truth.

Frankly...I don't give a rats ass where the bee is from globally!
I won't hesitate to help another bee with possible solutions!
I was one of the first to warn against what would occur in GUPchucking birch reductions and tried to sway bees the world over toward better extraction practices that didn't produce PeanutButter Crank riddled with siderxn gaak and impurities.
Abominator has every right to point out successful extraction methods that are aimed toward providing International relief for the newer gaaks!
And placebo is right about one thing...Older pillstocks provide relief for a time but those that like to getcaught with their pants down....keep applying old methods on newer formulations.
The info that will help a US bee stands a better chance at helping an OZ bee than just applying the OZ ways from days of old!
I don't see you placebo coming up with any new work-arounds for your fellow countrybees.

There is a new gaak that will be encountered internationally.
It's a combination Of sorbates(TWEEN 60-80) and various
weight PEGS 200-600-800-1000. This is combined with the layering of OI-OII-Eudragit gaaks in the same formulation.
This inhibits amine movement as well as interfering with the crystalization process.
It is pH activated and will survive most types of reduction only to be encountered post-rxn.
Front side A/B'ing processes help but will cost in yields of usable pfed due to anti-xtalling and encapsulation.
For those that skate by the OII-Eudragit in their extraction process, start looking toward methods aimed at  sidestepping Polysorbate encapsulation.
Never shut yourselves out of newer processes based solely on GlobalRegion!
We're all in the boat together and should act as such!
And Placebo: If you took offense to anything I've said here....save your breath because any rebuttal will likely fall on deft ears. At least in Ibees corner.
Those quick to turn away any offers of help... either...
a)NEED HELPIn MORE ways than one!
b)Don't deserve it!
