TEK - LeJunk's Cocaine Purification Technique / acetone wash

[epote]

the acetone wash doesn't change the crystal structure, ergo it does not produce flakes...

if you want to have shiny, mother of pearl, fish scale or whatever kind of cocaine you will have to recrystallize which is a different procedure.

The acetone wash will not remove the salt (hcl, sulfate or whatever) form of most phycoactives that are possibly in your cocaine. Thus, amphetamine, methamphetamine, caffeine hcl etc will linger. But bear in mind that swim has never found ANY type of cocaine actually cut with speed. Its not that usual, amphetamines are a drug on their own, its counterproductive to use it as a cut when caffeine or paracetamol will do...So dont worry about speed seriously, and even if it did have speed you would hardly be able to tell the difference, they have very similar high's. The "speediness, agitation, paranoia" type of high is due to other cuts and/or manufacture residue.

I would be hesitant to use chlorophorm, its carcinogenic and very intoxicating, if you are going to go that far a recrystallization out of ethanol would be best, or just do a proper a/b extraction its prety easy

Thanks epote - what is a/b extraction? is there a link to where it shows the process?

[Benga]

a/b stands for acid-base.

TEK - cocaine the A/B extraction for the connoisseur

[epote]

thanks trptamene, plus this:

has nice pictures and stuff

a bit more detailed and for the layman than decks

it can also be done with more benigh chemicals

Wow. 1.7 grams out of 4-something grams is really fucked up....and the stuff even looked legit.

So a little less than 50% pure...sadly this is probably higher than a lot of other stuff out there.

[sambo82]

swim say if its the uk you would be lucky to get 30-40% pure

there is another swimmer on here who does the same thing with 10grams and ends up with 6.9g

Wow, SWIM feels lucky and spoiled that the stuff he gets is very cheap and yields ~80%. The stuff was horribly nervous, jittery, paranoid, "nothing is good enough i need more let's do something else how about more of this blow i want to go somewhere or do something better".

After 20% of it was taken out by the acetone wash, the high became completely different. Very euphoric, not speedy at all, calm (to the point of SWIM seeing things like people in bushes because of being up too late and being REALLY coked up and enjoying it as a humorous addition to the experience because there was NO paranoia), WARM, and coming down was very interesting.

If small lines were being done, it was not very noticable, but the thought of doing more when one realized he wasn't feeling it as much a while later would arise. If a rail was blown, the feeling was really really amazing and then after about t+1:15 it would shift to extreme relaxation and euphoria that lasts a few hours. The feeling also makes one think "SWIM could do more, but he doesn't feel like it. He feels really nice right here not doing anything." SWIM can only compare the feeling to his limited experience with opiates - cocaine seems to be VERY UNLIKE other stimulants like meth, amp, and caffeine. Some of the euphoria was like MDMA but the tingly feeling was deeper rooted than with MDMA. Otherwise, it was a very numb-type experience and even a numbee (a little goes a LONG WAY) on a day when no cola was used yields a sort of spaced out euphoria in addition to the numbness of the throat and mouth. SWIM thinks it's unlikely, but still considers the small possibility that his stuff may be laced with small amounts of dope, so he's slightly curious as to whether that would have been washed away by acetone when the stuff was cleaned.

SWIM liked blow before this, mostly from his experiences with blow on dxm (very intense, but stimulant and depressant combinations are dangerous), but purified cocaine is just a completely different drug.

An alley cat had some blow that was incredibly strong, but made him even more anxious, paranoid, crappy in general after the first 20 minutes. This made him use more and still have trouble with feeling good, his heart raced, and he remembered seeing this thread.

He baked a lot of epsom salts in an oven for 2 hours in some layered aluminum foil that was shaped like a tray. He then added a very large amount that was much more than 10 grams to his liter of acetone. He also mixed some in a glass, moved it between containers taking from the top to get a quick evaluation of the method. His first little bump probably only yielded 50%, but it was very nice.

He was convinced further by this to attempt about .15 grams with the acetone that had been sitting for an hour. It yielded five decent lines that he shared with a friend. Very nice. NO PAIN, little anxiety (but still some probably more from the stuff before he started purifying it).

Finally, he put .839 grams in with some of the acetone that he had put 1.5 hours earlier in a tall glass. This time, stuff took WAY longer to evaporate, and he let it take the time. After a while under a lamp after being finely crushed, he finally cut up some little lines. This batch was the best one because the most care and time was taken. Also, the yield was 77.7% - .652 grams from .839.

To improve the quality further, the rest was dried more and put in an airtight amber vial. It may be dried even more, but for now it is safe.

Very warm, no comedown, no pain, no stuffiness, no craving. This cat won't ever do straight street blow again.

Nice kali!

Thanks Epote for the pic tutorial!

Magnesium sulfate is used in the home making of beer and wine.

Swim used normal OTC acetone(thats full of water!) and used the sulfate(baked in the oven for 3 hours) and tossed it in with the acetone.

Then placed it in the frigde, and used it in the way prescibed in the technique, works perfectly !

[kip]

Equality -> It works well if you place it in the fridge? SWIM is having hard time finding ACS 99.5%+ acetone. Only thing he found close was N.F 99.5%.

[epote]

dont worry too much about it, dry it with magn sulfate and you are good to go, no need to get acs or reagant grade acetone. Causes to much suspition.

So a little less than 50% pure...sadly this is probably higher than a lot of other stuff out there.

actually it was more than that, during the procedure for every 100ml of water used there is a loss of 0.17gr cocaine. So in this case 0.5gr where lost there, say 0.6 if you calculate the fact that some cocaine containing solvents remain in the filter papers etc.

unfortunately for us using so much water is the only "easy" way to remove effedrine and pseudoeffedrine if they are cut with them...if SWIY suspects there is no effedrine in the sample use less water, like 20ml per gr of cocaine hcl.

that sample was prety descent, like 60%+ pure.

btw the procedure deckstrack outlines has a net loss of 1.2gr just due to all that water, so in reallity it was purer than that

I didn't know cocaine base was that soluble in H2O...have ppl thought about using any salts to try to force more of this out, or does the procedure call for this already (i haven't read it in a long time)?

KIP > you take the store acetone, put the magnesium sulfate in there. Then place it in the frigde..

What happens is the water is going into the sulfate and freezes at the bottom, whats left on top is the aceton cleared of water.

[epote]

no it doesnt freeze, freezing is a prosses of crystallization, the magn sulfate wont let that happen, you put it in the fridge to lower the solubility of acetone and lower the movement of molecules

Should you do the same to ether when drying it out, are mason jars OK to store the ether as well, and should SWIM store ether in the fridge?

[epote]

fter 20% of it was taken out by the acetone wash

that so does not mean the original cocaine was 80% pure.

it just means it had 80% non acetone soluble cuts (which really doesnt say much, most active cuts are not acetone soluble). For excample, the sample SWIM used for the acid base extraction (the one thats 50% pure) had *no* weight loss on an acetone wash.

be that as it may, having a fun experience is what is all about so who gives a shit what it contains as long as its enjoyable right? (...?)

Yeah, that's obviously true, but it's probably close to 80% as the effects are SO markedly different. Or... it means that cuts that don't need to be taken out to turn cocaine into a miracle drug that leaves the user feeling good for days after the cessation of use are not soluble in acetone either, quite conveniently. The reason to say this is that based on certain things about sources, SWIM's stuff seems to come from someone who knows someone who knows someone who imports it. It gives a huge yield and comes in blocks. SWIM tends to think it's simply very sloppy manufacture, but virtually no cutting at all. Whatever it is, however, it doesn't matter. It's great! Since SWIM and his cats have tried this stuff, they never think "let's do some coke 'cause we're bored." They tend to plan it so the experience is better and their responsibilities are not ignored... it's just not addictive anymore.

some will be displaced by the fact that other cuts get dissolved in water obviously, so in reality it sould be less, but SWIM aint sure to be honest

you could always just use less water obviously

[KomodoMK]

Any SWIMs in the south east of the UK tried this method and can report what kind of yield they got?

SWIM has washed 3* 0.5G's and 1* 1G, and it's all been amazing. Lasted at least twice as long, getting both SWIM and SWIM's other half higher than ever. SWIM can't recommend it enough.

Thanks for your reply. Can you comment on what percentage of your product was left after the wash? Cheers.

[Aar0n]

No idea on percentage, SWIM don't have scales. There looked like quite a bit, SWIM's told me, and also it lasted much longer than if it wasn't washed.

So SWIM can't comment on percentages. Sorry.
