Did he burned the meth?
« on: May 01, 2004, 04:42:00 AM »
SWIM did his first real hot'dry rxn (with condenser etc.), using 7g ephedrine. Since it was his first rxn, he can't tell if was succeesfull, but it seemed like it. SWIM follwed Placebo and Worlock's instructions and everthing went fine.

In the end of the cleaning part, SWIM made 4 HCL + water pulls from the NP, instead of gassing. The first 3 was pH down to about 7, but accedently the last one was pH down to 1. SWIM combined the 4 water parts, which made the hole water part pH 1.

The water was placed in a evap diss and gently heated to remove water. SWIM made the mistake not to turn the heat down while more and more water was evap., so suddenly SWIM's crystals started to melt      :-[

Some of the crystals melted and turned in to a olie and created a lot of smoke. After SWIM cooled down the evap diss, the olie from the melting crystals turned in to a lighty brown hard mass.

Now SWIM's product is 50% small brown pieces and 50% white raw crystals.

How can SWIM clean this up, so he can reX. what left over?

Also, SWIM has thougth about if the use of to much acid did have anything to do with the creating of the brown pieces? The smoke tasted a lot of HCL. 

Thank for any advices.

the extra acid won't hurt it, though it is unpleasant to inhale (extremely)

but heating the solution to beeyond dryness will vapourize the goods for sure.

since you caught it beefore it was all gone, try an acetone wash or 3 on the remaining precipitate and see if it doesn't brighten things up.

save the tone washes, btw, for a rainy day...there will bee some stims in it too...along w/ funk.

but why the hot and dry rxn?
