I recently have used 69ron's d-limo tek. It results in a very difficult to manage acetate. So in about 2 weeks I am going to make a first attempt at Kash's A/B extraction. I intended to ask my questions on dmt-nexus, but they don't allow post under the extractions area unless your a full member. So here are my questions, if anyone here has done this before.

1. When adding the Lye (step 5) it gets pretty hot. The recommend using a faucet to cool it. What is the best way to do this (safety-wise) ?

2. When adding HCl (step to what strength should the HCl be diluted? (i currently have 37%)

3. When washing with MEK, does the MEK need to first be dried with epsom salts (magnesium sulfate) ?

Since this is not a complete tek, I didn't post it in the extractions section. I apologize if i put this in the wrong place.

Thanks!

Thanks. It would be easier w/ dmt-nexus if I actually had something useful to say. Mostly, I just read the forums. This is actually the first forum I have posted on in over five years.

I like hard to know as well. And are looking for information.
