Extracted lsa from morning glory seeds in order to make my own knock-off lsd
Yeah, polar/non-polar extractions are about as far as my home chemistry got. But the LSA was good.
Amen, brother.
Chemistry is just messy physics.
Biology is just messy chemistry.
Physics is just messy math.
Your list is in a messy order.
I tried a few simple AB extractions long ago in a previous life.
Weed science. Not complicated at all, but there’s so much bro science out there…
Oh no… Mine is super basic… Flower, everclear, freezer, air fryer.
I’m happy with it - i feel like the extraction i get is pretty good for the ease and safety of my little setup. I’m not trying to make enough to sell, just mostly making cheezits and candies for friends. When i do have a lot to process i usually do a dry ice shake.
There was one time when I put a mold filled with liquid water in a cold container and made solid water.
that sounds super dangerous!
I don’t do that much of that but I hear my guts can do some amazing chemistry on the food all on their own, not to mention the cells themselves.
Colouring hair, baking soda+vinegar (to clean and showoff), crude fuel cell, cleaning a washing machine with borax and something (some soda?)
Extraction and purification of surface residue for triple quadrupole analysis looking for pesticides, or inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry looking for arsenic, but that’s practically physics by that level.
Same, except I turn it into farts.
Production of chlorine gas
Pop Rocks, mouth, coca cola.
Napalm from petrol and styrofoam
For me it has been etching circuit boards and specifically making my own liquid tinning solution at one point. I mostly do hydrochloric acid/hydrogen peroxide on larger stuff and ferric chloride on smaller prototypes.
This one is underrated. That shit is like college-level difficult
Extracted lidocaine from butt lube.
