The only way to change the taste of a substance is to change the substance itself.Hrm, didn't you say something or other about the taste changing after adding iso to it like 5 pages ago...? Well, whatever, I was wrong either way :)QuoteThe idea behind my original post is that N-iso is more soluble in isopropyl alcohol than methamphetamine. So if you add a small amount of isopropyl, it will selectively dissolve more N-iso than methamphetamine, the product left behind should have a much lower % of N-iso, and the product you get from evaporating the IPA should have a very high N-iso %, enough so that it will be distinguishable from methamphetamine as soon as its smoked.I don't understand what you're saying. Their molecular weight is the same, their molecular formula is the same. They differ only ever so slightly (and obviously -- not to mention unfortunately -- that makes them worlds apart in biological interaction with our brains). Aren't the ionic bonds the same, so won't they dissolve at the same rate...? I mean the only thing I can think of is that they may have different heat profiles and the solubility would be changed because of that, but... well basically I don't understand solubility well enough to know why you're thinking n-iso could possibly be more soluble in isopropyl alcohol than meth?I also don't understand how if their taste is *that* different, you can't recognize it when they're mixed. That seems unlikely, but... Hell, I don't know, weirder things have happened.Also: if they're that fucking different, why the Hell didn't someone tell us this before -- that means several washes with isopropyl alcohol and you'll be left with an almost n-iso free product? That can't possibly be right...?Your thinking is a logical fallacyA=C, B=C, Therefor A=B NO!Why does chloroform dissolve meth, yet not n-iso?... why? Impossible to answer, because it doesn't. Please tell me that isn't true. Why are we fucking around if that's all it takes?Also, if you can show me the premises in my argument that correspond to A, B, and C, then I'll apologize and admit I was wrong; but otherwise, your argument is a straw man. See, I took logic too :P
