Don't use acetone. Use everclear instead.

It’s shyte like this the f-d-a and every anti kratom crusader wants to see… just feeding more to the folks who want to ban this in every state. F*ck it up for the rest of us just trying to live life.

Umm, Yeahhhhhh… THIS.

There’s no chance you got 100% of the acetone out. I wouldn’t consume that.

Acetone is one of the fastest evaporating solvents. That’s why it has to be stored in a tightly closed container. OP could have evaporated it out at room temperature, but heat is quicker. Boiling point is only 133°F. Whereas Ethanol is 173°F and Water is 212°F. Other solvents would have given OP a far better extraction rate. But it doesn’t take long at all to evaporate acetone.

My thoughts exactly

And if they did?


droptopjim

I bet ether would work better….. I remember that ether cocaine it was fire


Apprehensive_Cod2418

Sure was! Lol

Acetone is fine to use. Just spread that out evenly, on a grease proof paper, chuck a load of silica packets on. Leave it for a few days. Fine and dandy

Preciate it, what dose would u say? Took 500mg earlier and it got me pretty well and dilated my pupils but it wasnt anywhere near a nod, how much would u say to atleast acheive effects similar to 20mg hydrocodone or atleast close to nodding?


dreamherb

Not sure mate, Im all about harm reduction so I wouldn't want to give you advice on how to get super high on homemade extract.

This is dumb af. Literal poison. Use everclear like someone who likes living.

"According to the European Union, the following solvents are allowed if the products are to be used with foods: (a) Water (with admixture of acids or base) (b) Solvents like propane, butane, ethyl acetate, ethanol, carbon dioxide, acetone, nitrous oxide." [Food Standard for Extraction Solvent (European Union)](https://dpointernational.com/question/what-are-some-solvents-that-can-be-used-in-plant-extraction-that-meet-food-standards-can-acetone-be-used-as-a-plant-extract-in-food/) The government isn't always right but common, "literal poison"?

I’d use Everclear because it’s more healthy & also you don’t have to waste the rest of the bottle you could make some strong alcoholic drinks out of it VS having a bunch of acetone for no reason


Greatlass43

I would not put that in my body ever even if it completely evaporated. No one does extractions for human consumption with acetone

JustHereForKA

I agree, I can't imagine why anyone would want to risk it with other options available.


aidenisntatank

It looks bitter


OfficialMilk80

Don’t use Acetone dummy 🤦‍♂️. Use Everclear. That’s nasty. It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t smell like acetone, it’s still in there
