Crack cocaine synthesis
Crack cocaine synthesis
Introduction
Crack cocaine can be understood as smoking cocaine. This is only viable once the cocaine has been freebased. There are several methods to achieving cocaine freebase such as using heat and bi-carbonate of soda or using ammonia.
Ammonia method [1]
Equipment
-> Several large glass containers (ensure it is glass.)
-> Filter paper (coffee filter paper will suffice)
-> Plastic funnel
-> Glass eye dropper
-> Glass stirring rod
-> Ceramic plate
Ingredients
-> Cocaine
-> Water
-> 10% Ammonia (This concertation is common among household ammonia brands)
Method
Take 1 gram of cocaine, dissolve in glass container containing 40mls of water. If there are adulterants/cuts then they will likely not dissolve. Filter the 40mls of water through plastic funnel and filter paper to get rid of these if necessary. Once all product has dissolved add another 20mls water. 60ml water per 1g cocaine.
Now, pour 20ml ammonia to a 3rd separate glass container. Using glass eye dropper slowly add exactly 1ml. of the ammonia to the dissolved cocaine solution. Observe the "cloudy" white precipitate that forms. Stir for 2-3 minutes being careful to avoid touching the glassware with the stirring rod. Add another 1ml. and repeat process for roughly 5ml.s of ammonia. Observe the white sludge like substance that forms on the end of the rod, separate whole solution into fresh new container and keep repeating process (1ml>stir) until the sludge starts to take on a rock like form. This is your crack. You can separate any solid rock and place on ceramic plate. You have the option to leave it to air out/evaporate overnight or simply absorb moisture with paper towels to reduce ammonia consumption when smoked.
Notes
You can determine the purity of the original cocaine you possessed by weighing beforehand and then weighing the freebase afterwards
