Step 4: Cool the separated mixture and cut up the solids into 'rocks' Step 3: Boil the solution to separate out the solids

Step 2 : Add sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) to the mixture Step 1 : Dissolve powder cocaine in hot water

Without being too specific, here's what's involved in making it. Because its production doesn't require the use of flammable solvents, it is safer to make than freebase cocaine. Free-base was originally produced by a dangerous four-or-five step process in which the hydrochloride salt was heated with water and a volatile liquid such as ether.Ĭrack cocaine is an easier-to-manufacture form of freebase cocaine – the only difference between cocaine and crack is that the latter has its hydrochloride removed, increasing the melting point and making the drug smokable.
#Cooking crack with baking soda and spoon free
Freebase/crack is derived from cocaine hydrochloride which has been chemically treated with ammonia or baking-soda to free the potent base material from the salt. It's fun to take something like juice from squished blueberries and mix it with baking soda and with coke or vinegar to see the colors you get. It's the reaction of an alkali, or base baking soda with an acid, which is an exciting reaction that releases lots of energy. Baking soda and coke react like baking soda and vinegar. You want it to be thin enough to be able to swirl it around the bottom of the jar, but not thick enough that it clumps up and is hard to move. Once you have these evenly distributed you want to take your distilled water and mix in enough to get the entire mixture to a muddy thick consistency. ermingut/Getty Imagesģ PARTS BAKING SODA for every 1 PART COCAINE.
