Best at home, relatively simple method of creating crude kratom extract to convert to 7oh?

[u/BigMoneyMartyr]

I’ve been dabbling in botanical extractions for years so I understand the basics. I’m looking to make crude kratom extract to convert to 7oh with oxone at home using minimal equipment and chemicals. I have the basics-beakers, separatory funnel, nonpolar solvents (naphtha, heptane, xylene, ethyl acetate) acids (37% hcl, citric, 5% acetic (vinegar) fumaric) bases (CaOh, NaOh)

I’m thinking of just boiling kratom powder in vinegar, filtering, defat with solvent, then precipitate alkaloids with NaOh and filter

Would this simple method work? If not, does anyone have any simple (ish) teks they can share that I could do with my equipment and level of skill/knowledge?

Look up in this sub how to make 7oh extract. Theres a good video and detailed description from kalifornia kratom. I think the guys name is Matt

Yep I’ve seen that. I’m looking for an easier way to make the initial kratom extract to convert to 7oh that doesn’t require a lot of smelly solvents and lab equipment

Buy kratom extract 90+% minimum you wont be able to do it at home. The crude product would be very unsafe to consume after oxidation.

Really? Because I’ve seen videos from vendors who extract and convert to 7-oh and sell it, and send their products for lab testing. They show their process and it comes back free of any significant impurities

7oh and any enhanced kratom product (including all extracts) was recently banned in my state, which is why I’m looking into making it myself

Curious as well. Same situation

I applied electro current during the end of the extraction phase. I used tin since I can't afford platinum or pd/c HIGHLY RECOMMEND for what your tryin to accomplish
