Last night was a remarkable frightening hilarious first launch into the extraterrestrial amusement park ride of geometric candy color n-n-DMT experience (for me). I wouldn't call it spiritual exactly but certainly... w e i r d.

My partner and I did it together and some questions-

We built a pipe out of the method described here:

recommended on this subreddit.

So far so good.

We measured out 20mg each. But her trip seems to have been a lot less intense and shorter than mine and we don't know if we have the technique right for next time.

I put a lighter under the foil and we saw white vapor rise and fill the bottle. I waved the flame under and saw the vapor start and stop. Finally when there seemed to be no more vapor filling we figured it's done so time to inhale.

The question is this - how do we know we weren't burning up the DMT and wasting it? There was just a black mark and no visible original material left when we examined the foil afterwards. I was moving the flame back and forth to try to only have enough heat to release vapor but not burn.

Because our trips were so different in intensity despite careful weighing we think the method we used to vaporize is the problem.

Any ideas or suggestions for next time?

In theory I see how this bottle tin foil method would be much easier than other methods. I just have never done this and don't know what I am supposed to be doing exactly!

And one side question -- any chance we we burning up and breathing aluminim foil? Isn't foil supposed to be suited for this kind of thing since it's used in cooking?

THANKS-

(And hoping to try 5-meo-dmt at some point.)
