View Full Version : Snorting - Snorting Caffeine
is it possible to make caffeine snortable? ive heard that the reason caffeine anhydrous doesnt work when snorted is because it requires stomach acid to work. so by forming caffeine hcl it should become snortable right? any feed back welcomed
why the fuck would you want to snort caffeine? just drink about 3 jolts!

Kind of late but if you're still thinking about snorting caffine I know quite a few tweakers that have snorted nodoze(caffine pills) and they said it got them pretty spun out. I'd just go with DXM if you're looking for a legal high. Each to his own though. Have fun.

but caffeine and dxm are nothing alike, at least suggest something with similar effects like ephedrine or pseudoephedrine which are also legal.
i wonder what effect snorting modafinil would have if any?
Just crush up some caffeine pills and snort them. Basically they work.

So drink some coffee... Some people take this shit way to seriously...
Someone Who Honestly Isn't Me (A friend at work) tells me today that instead of swallowing caffiene pills, he chops and snorts them.
I asked why?? He says, on an empty stomach (i.e., not eating breakfast) that the pills make his stomach upset and "spicy" feeling. When snorted, he gets the effects he wants w/o the upset stomach, and the effects come on much quicker.
He said I should try it before I knock it, and I would but I wanted other peeps experiences/opinions before doing so.
I've done coke a number of times, so I'm not new to insufflation of powder. The pills seem to be pure caffiene, on the ingredient list there is nothing else listed anywhere on the package.
Is this ok to try??http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif
Ive done it sometimes,but only because i was dumb,if there is no need to to snort shit and fuck up your nose,then you shouldnt do it....i mean if thats the case why dont we all start snortin aspirin or antibiotics...
Yeah, he basically wants me to try it so that I quit makin fun of him. But other than his reasons of an upset stomach, I think he just does it out of boredom or some shit. I don't know. He def. can't afford the real shit.
I'm gonna break his virginity of the fine white here in a little bit, he's never done it before! Maybe he'll stop w/ the caffiene and do coke like normal people after that!http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif

I snorted caffeine pills once when the local meth supply ran dry, just because it felt like I was still doing some kind of illicit drug, which was stupid.

Caffeine anhydrous absolutely, for 100% sure, works insufflated. Buy
200mg caffeine pills and snort one if you don't believe me. You will
get a rush of energy that is probably comparable to ten jolts and your
head will feel crazy.
If you actually want to use caffeine in a positive manner I'd recommend
about 25 mg insufflated, but try the above if "it doesn't work."
ive seen bags of 100% pure caffine on a website, i cant remeber which one, if i remember i will post.
ha, yeah i snorted pro plus once, i tried to placebo myself into thinking it was coke, needless to say it didnt work.
ewww snorting caffine pillssounds like youd get a nasty drip but ill do a caffine extract in a few days and check out how pure tastes

i say why not? snorting caffeine can't be worse for you than snorting coke! Also i'd say the pills wont b pure caffeine, there are prolly binders but i cant see them being bad for you in any way. What about snorting some ground up coffee beans? http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/smileys/smiley36.gif
ill leave the coffe beans up to you to bioassy what i was talking about was extracting caffine from tea and ending up with 80+% pure
Iggypoop
17-03-2005, 13:04
mmmmm, why bother making an extract from tea? would it not be easier to remove binders from the pills and do it that way? I've also heard that tea has more than one 'active' ingredient. It also has theophylline and tannin as well (dont quote me on that tho).
binders annoy me ive deeal with them enuf as it is, and yes tea does contain tanins.tannins are chemicals used in tanning not one of the psychoactives in tea tea is quite easy to extract all you need is some solevnts watter and a base and you end up with some almost pure shit you can also run it thru a coldfinger to get 95+% pure check google for tea+caffine+extract should pop up a bunch of hits its a basic lab activity for 99% of first year chem students/high school

Ive snorted nodoz before..burns a bit, gets you hyped up a bit...I
dunno I mess around with coke and prescription amphetamines (adderall
etc) and caffine is nothing...no reason to snort it really
Snorting pills would also involve snorting some binders and fillers. Don't know if that would be much of a problem, but you might be better off just buying some pure caffiene.
its weak, burns a bit, and gets you 'up' for about 30 mins, then you crash like the airplanes into the world trade center.
Pure caffine powder is not hard to come by online. I know of a few people who have snorted caffine and they seem to like here is a good post by club222:
ahah nice. I just actually crushed up a bunch of leftover vivarin last
night. It took forever! All for only 2g of caffeine. The little yellow
casing on the outside was a bitch to remove.
Oh yeah, just a quick question that some of you may be able to answer.
How come when I snort stuff like cocaine or ecstasy, my pupils get
huge, but when I snort caffeine, my pupils get the size of a pin point?
It looks crazy.
Started with this:
http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/uploads/club222/2005-06-15_012259_vpile.jpg
Ended up with this:
http://www.drugs-forum.com/forum/uploads/club222/2005-06-15_012327_vpowder.jpg
As you can see, there are still small bits of yellow casing in there
that I missed and that I have to pick out before I do any. Those little things will ruin
your nose if you snort those!
I can't see the reason for harming your nose to use a non recreational drug.
So, who knows if you can plug caffeine?
Ephedrine or pseudoephedrine would probably be a better buzz.Edited by: Nicaine

Coffee enemas do have a following of sorts. I knew some people who were into doing that. They invited me over one day - offering me a cup of coffee at there place. I asked for cream and sugar and walked away.

Some people just enjoy snorting shit, I dunno, it's a weird
fetish. I had a roommate who, as soon as he snorted ANY drug,
would practically beg me for something else to snort, not for the
effects, but just something to insuffilate. Weird shit man.
Shoulda gotten him some snuff.

I liked to snort caffeine for about a week when I was 12 or 13.
It just felt so badass. Then I realized it worked better just to
eat the NoDoze, and if I really wanted to snort something just to buy
some yay.

nodoz works the best, crush up like two. but don't do it if u expect a coke or meth rush, its nothing like those two. its like chugging two mountain dews, i wouldn't waste nasal lining on caffeine and just go find some coke if u wanna a stimulant
happy tripping!!!!!

SWIM was wondering if anyone had tried snorting Pro Plus? SWIM has looked on google and those who have done it say it is wicked, but those who haven't say it is very dangerous.
SWIM is clueless so was wondering if anyone else has tried it/knows what they are talking about e.g. the pros and cons.
Cheers

It will work but SWIE would be better off getting some pure Caffeine powder because if SWEI crushed a pro-plus he is also going to be snorting the binders as well. Personally Swim would just have a few cups of tea.
Evilsatan
23-06-2006, 18:35
Lol, cheers for that, not sure where to get caffine powder in UK :s Saw it was availiable in US. Tea relaxes SWEI and coffee doesn't work unless on an empty stomach and with a double shot of expresso, that gives SWIM the jitters :p
SWIM wanted to know as SWIM wanted to see if it was safe to do as a bet, SWIM can make a fair bit of money of his pub buddies :p

SWIM has snorted pure caffeine powder before in doses ranging from a quarter gram to a full gram. More enjoyable in smaller doses methinks (unless you have a tolerance). 1 gram was quite a hellish experience, anxiety, lightheadedness, high heartbeat etc. caffeine is a more potent stimulant than most people think, it just doesn't carry the euphoria of speed/e's/coke. Dealers cut these drugs with caffeine pills as a cheap adulterant, with a similar stimulant effect.

This is about as silly as smoking green tea. Buy real drugs.
baron samedi

SWIM knows what you're saying but plenty of people use caffeine pills/drinks for a boost, so i don't know whats wrong with snorting it in a pure powdered form, for a stronger effect.
Caffeine is just about the most popular stimulant in the world (maybe along with betel nuts) so it must give some type of enjoyable effect or people wouldn't bother. Dunno about green tea, but i believe tea smoking is quite common in the middle-east. Not sure its for psychoactive effects though, or just the taste.
I've never done it before, but washing the crushed caffeine pills through a coffee filter (an act close to the filter's proper use) would probably be a good idea before blowing those pulverized pills up your nose. I for one wouldn't even think to do it otherwise; the cleaning is so simple you might as well do it.

Probably better just to get some pure caffeine powder, which is intended for snorting, IMO. Quite easy to find SWIM thinks.

Has SWIY got any experience to share with intranasal caffeine, baron? SWIMs been toying with that notion.
baron samedi
13-04-2007, 04:07
Yes SWIM does. He knows that some in drug circles may mock such a thing, but believes that caffeine still has its place in the world of psychoactives so really it had to be tried.
SWIM would recommend buying some of the powder he mentions above if it can be acquired where SWIY is. He cannot remember it being too hard on the nose compared to speed, say. SWIM would say his best experience came on a relatively low dose of approx. 250mg's. SWIM was reminded a bit of when he used to get a noticeable "buzz" from tea/coffee, many years ago. Seems a bit more intense and fast-acting than other methods, but didn't last that long. Further experiments with higher doses were not as successful. 1 gram was far too much for SWIM, which is about the maximum it is safe to take, leading to a lot of panic and anxiety.
SWIM bought ONE KILOGRAM of anhydrous caffeine online, very cheap, high quality in bulk from a pharmaceutical company as a supplement. But anyway SWIM has snorted it, it seemed fairly ineffective and the consistency is so floury and the taste/smell is so bitter that it is too unpleasant for one to even want to put in SWIYs mouth to absorb, must be mixed for best effects.

SWIM was not thinking of approaching doses of 1/4g or more.
yes, indeed SWIMs first oral dosage definitely induced a mild panic attack and urge to keep fiddling with things, and respiratory issues occured. This was with one size "0" capsule completely full.
SWIM has a 100g tub of caffeine, and he blows it quite often. It's *very* effective, much moreso than drinking it in SWIM's opinion.

First of all, this question is in reference to caffeine, which is legal, but I will still use the SWIM thing to err on the side of caution.
SWIM wants to snort caffeine. When he does, he gets it stuck in his nose mucus. How can SWIM do this without getting this stuck in his nose mucus constantly. Seriously, SWIM gets almost all of it simply stuck in his nose mucus.

SWIM wants to start off by saying that DVORAK is better.
ok, now, SWIM has done this before and later realized that the binders and fillers in caffein pills may be very bad for you in regards to your lung health.
SWIM heard that they are not water soluble and may stay in your lungs for a very long time!

I actually blow pure caffeine quite often. It's not bad, and seeing as how it has the binders removed, It's not very harmful to the nose.
The effects of doing a small line is like drinking maybe 4 or 5 cups of coffee. I wouldn't compare it to coke or speed, but its a fun thing for every now and again.
and people doing 1 gram? thats insanely dangerous. I think that 250mgs is actually a pretty high dose. I usually stick to around 25-40mgs.
radiometer
16-02-2008, 02:09
SWIM usually stick to around 25-40mgs.
That sounds pretty reasonable. Note the change in wording.
SWIMs had his caffeine for a long while now, but has not yet gotten up the nerve to try insufflating it. He's pretty sure the side effects will be rather nasty.
baron samedi
17-02-2008, 00:13
Yes SWIM would say that 1 gram of caffeine powder probably is dangerous if not insanely so.
The lowest dose SWIM did was surprisingly pleasurable for a couple of hours at least, but if you're expecting something akin to speeding you'll probably be disappointed.
If you're heavily into espressos or something, might be your bag.

SWIM had another experience last night with caffeine.
SWIM snorted a small line maybe the length of a matchbox and very thin at about 9:00 PM felt a pretty slight buzz for a while. Then at about 12:00 AM SWIM snorted another line of the same size and drank a cup of coffee. SWIM was able to stay awake and had a mild buzz. SWIM then drank a cup of coffee at about 4:00 AM and then fell asleep at about 5:00 AM. When SWIM woke up he felt like complete shit. He thinks it may have been from the cold he has had the past two weeks. He woke up with a pain in his throat, and a slight feeling of hangover.
Also, SWIM had smoked a couple bowls of weed over the evening too.
I'd say it was a positive experience for SWIM.
CircaX43521
17-02-2008, 15:43
Also, SWIM felt very sweaty immediatly after snorting the lines. He thinks it may have been due to the room being very warm, but can't be sure.
Also, SWIM went to sleep at 5:00 AM and only slept untill 8:30 AM. Which may have added to the whole hangover feeling.

i mean if thats the case why dont we all start snortin aspirin or antibiotics...
yea why dont we! .............. or we could smoke banana peels after eating orange rinds with toothpaste on them! cmon now. just because humans have thumbs doesnt mean we are masters of intelligence.
swim has a few friends that were bored one day and could find no illicit substances so they did infact crush up a few tylenol 200mgs and hoover away... swim is very glad he was not there to witness this adventure.
also when swim was in rehab, a few of the other patients got to go to an AA meeting and grabbed a handful of coffee beans on their way out the door. upon returning to the rehab they smashed up the beans and sucked up as much as their little noses could hold. needless to say they got in serious trouble when one of the staff saw brown gunk dripping from their nose....
please kids, dont sniff things that arent meant to be sniffed!

22-02-2008, 07:48
In case it's not perfectly clear, most of us are discussing the insufflation of pure caffeine powder. Now, it certainly may turn out to be the case that it is a poor idea to insufflate caffeine, and I'm betting that if or when SWIM gets around to trying it, he'll say "oof - not again!"
But comparisons to Tylenol tablets and coffee beans don't make any sense and you'll have to do better than that. So, besides citing idiots snorting non-psychoactive drugs and crushed plant matter, what arguments are you suggesting against insufflating caffeine?
swia a while ago used in enjoy small lines of pure caffeine, its mild stimulation. its nice but tends to make her irritable after a while. have to keep moving around etc.

Swim has not posted on here for a long time but wanted to tell other swimmers that the EC or ECA stack was very enjoyable. Swim knows that this has nothing to do with snorting but since this topic is on caffeine swim just had to bring it up.
E=Ephedrine
C=Caffeine
A=Aspirin
Swim is not sure why the Aspirin is used so if anyone knows please share.

not much different from popping them.
the only difference is your nose doesnt hurt when your done :)
but pro vigil is an ok pick me up.
swim thinks that drinking a monster does more than 15 mg of adderall so ulp to you. just stick to coffee or else youll be like swim and go into a docter to get a ct scan of your siniuses to have him comeing in going ya theres deffinatly something wrong up there

SWIM would recommend finding somewhere that sells caffeine powder intended for snorting if SWIY wants to snort it. SWIM never had any nasal problems when he tried it, a bit bitter but far more smooth than snorting speed if he remembers rightly.

Entropymancer
14-04-2008, 05:00
If you're going to snort caffeine, at least do your nose the service of buying pure caffeine, not snorting crushed up caffeine pills, binders and all. There are websites that sell it as a bulk nutritional supplement.
SWIM got a pound a while back, mostly to add to my coffee. An extra 200 mg in a doubleshot of espresso with every meal really helps get him through the day.
SWIM has tried snorting it before. It's an effective, short-lived stimulant. Insufflating it seems more euphoric than drinking or smoking it, but it's also a very jittery feeling that can become unpleasant. Every once in a blue moon, it seems like a good idea (usually alcohol is involved :laugh::crazy).
Smoking caffeine is downright uncomfortable. Very short high, extremely jittery and uncomfortable, and it seems to guarentee a brutal caffeine-withdrawal headache within 45-90 minutes of smoking.
(Why are all the posts here about SWIYs experiences with caffeine? SWIM found legal drugs unpleasant and moved to international waters, leaving me on the mainland with such legal and socially-acceptable drugs as caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol... I had to try really hard to convince him to try the caffeine)
BlondieUK
14-04-2008, 06:06
Snorting is a brittle high, but it works, I guess if you really need a quick 30-45 minute buzz to help you finish something it's worth doing, or possibly right before you go out.

Not that it's dangerous or anything, but man that's quite a potent espresso! :D Eddie's missus likes to eyeball about 75-100mg into her monday morning first cup of joe. I'll bet the espresso cuts the slight but noticeable bitter flavor of the caffeine nicely.
Back on topic. Eddie's never got around to snorting it. He just knows he'll regret it although it won't be unbearable.

SWIM once snorted caffeine for a comparison with a popular illicit stimulant that is usually insufflated. It sucked. He says it didn't feel much like the "real deal" and the pills were really difficult to crush and had sticky, lumpy bits through them.

SWIM has about 10 caffiene tablets which are around 30mg each. SWIM got these awhile back and was thinking of crushing them up and razoring them, bagging them and blowing them when he is out and compare them to the same effect he gets orally from either energy drinks, coffee or tea.
The tablets contain 150mg of detrose monohydrate and 30mg caffiene, will these be safe still to blow, since 30mg doesn't seem much so I would assume there would be alot of crap in them that might be harmful to SWIMs brain.
Also how many would be enough for SWIM to blow, SWIM was only thinking of 90mgs worth.
SWIM has found it hard to obtain other drugs so SWIM might stick to caff.

There is a whole big thread about snorting caffeine (use the search engine to find it). Dextrose is sugar, and other fillers should not pose any harm to your critter's brain. May I suggest that 200 mg pills (e.g. Vivarin in the USA) might be better suited for insufflation than 30 mg pills (1 pill vs. almost 7 pills for same dose). Not that I recommend snorting caffeine.
Tony Williams
10-05-2008, 02:10
I just noticed that, that thread is alive till today, I didn't use it because some of it was 2004. SWIM just want to get rid of this box he has had of them and he can't throw them out as he's too much of a hord.
SWIM lives in the U.K. and most caffiene tablets he sees are only 30mg. He might out of curiousity look at or online places but he probably wont do it again.
There have been alot of police about lately posing as dealers and whatnot so meds aren't easy to obtain as they were.
