How to extract DMT using legal plant sources, hardware store supplies, and some knowledge from your high-school chemistry class, a thread.

[Based on 100g material]

Stage 1: Get your plant material.

DMT exists in hundreds of plants & fungi around the world, the two most common sources are Mimosa Hostilis root bark & Acacia Confusa root bark.

I recommend finding a domestic source (if in the US) & not ordering more than 1kg of material.

Try to find shredded root bark, powdered makes extraction difficult and chunks = lower yields.

The plant material is legal, but there have been a few random cases of large orders being flagged. Ordering small amounts and using domestic suppliers (no customs) reduces the risk.

Stage 2: Get your other supplies.
-Distilled Water
-Distilled Vinegar
-Pure Lye
-Naphtha (a non-polar solvent)
-Safety Gear (long gloves, glasses, long sleeved clothes)
-Salt
-A Fan
-pH meter
-Glass Containers
-Turkey Baster
-Coffee Filter

Stage 3: Freeze Thaw Cycles
Place your plant material in a glass container and cover with 3-4 times its weight in filtered or distilled water. Heat it in a simmering water bath for one hour.

Let your mixture cool to room temp, then freeze & thaw 3 times.

Stage 4: Acidify
Add vinegar to your mixture until it reaches a pH between 2-4. Place it in a warm, not hot, water bath for at least 8 hours (crockpots are useful here).

Cool to to room temperature.

Stage 5: Defat
This stage is optional, though it is recommended if using Acacia Confusa, as it has a higher lipid content.

Add 50ml of naphtha to your container, shake a few times, then remove the naphtha with your turkey baster.

Stage 6: Salinate
Add 70-80g of salt to one liter of hot water. Combine this solution into your bark mixture.

Stage 7: Base
Slowly add 40g of Lye into 100ml of COLD water. Add this solution to your bark mixture. Test your bark solution after, it should have a pH of 12+. Add more Lye if your pH is lower.

This is the most dangerous stage, use your safety gear.

Using a warm, not hot water bath, heat your mixture for 2 hours, stirring occasionally(a crockpot is also useful here).

Cool to room temperature.

Stage 8: Pull
Add a small amount(50-100ml) of naphtha heated in your water bath to the bark mixture. Shake to combine, then allow the mixture to separate. Repeat this step 3 times.

Remove the naphtha with the baster & store in a container in the fridge (aids in crystallization).

Repeat the same process 6 more times. Pulling in stages ensures that you are fully extracting DMT and not leaving DMT in the bark mixture.

Remove your mixture from the fridge and fan evaporate roughly 40% or until the mixture is milky (full saturation).

Stage 9: Freeze Precipitate
Using a flat glass baking dish with a cover, freeze your mixture at the lowest temp in your freezer for 12-18 hours.

Using a coffee filter and glass, filter your solution. Place both the coffee filter and glass tray in front of the fan.

After the naphtha evaporates, you are left with pure DMT.

Discard your bark solution safely and scrape your DMT crystals from the dish. You're done.

DISCLAIMER:
If you extract DMT, you are technically manufacturing a Schedule 1 drug. This can have huge legal ramifications. All the materials used are legal, it is only once you combine them that you break the law.

Please be cautious and DO NOT tell others if you attempt this.

There are slightly simpler DMT teks (techniques) but the tek described here results in high yields, possibly up to 3%, but more commonly 1-2%.
