The Red, White & Blue Method Ingredients: Ephedrine / Pseudoephedrine Iodine Red phosphorus Ether Hydrochloric Acid Sodium hydroxide Methanol
The Process: The process for the Red White and Blue method means that equipment is gonna have to be used. The cooks use these things plus all the ingredients that i told about earlier. - 3 Plastic jars with lids - Coffee filters - Eyedropper - Glass dish - Funnel Now to start off they take t ake those Sudafed pills and do what they call wash them in the ether. Because you know you dont want that dangerous red color in your crank! haha They they crush up the pills and and put them int o one of the jars so their like a powder. They put the methanol in there and shake it real hard and the length of time depends on who you ask but around twenty minutes sounds like what most of them say more or less. Then they leave it to t o settle and separate out which means that the psudeoephedrine part floats on the top and the wax and other crap in the pills goes to the bottom. Then they put one of those t hose coffee filters into a funnel and hold the funnel over the glass dish and they pour the seperated mixture with psudoephedrine into the glass dish but they say you got to be real careful so you just get the psuedoephedrine and not the other stuff into the glass dish. Of course thats got the alcohol alcohol from the methanol in there t here so you got to find a way to heat he at it that will burn off the th e alcohol but remember you cant see it burning. Some of them use an oven and some say a hairdryer. Obviously Obviously the fumes from this are gonna make you sick so they wear those painters masks over their mouth and nose. Once they got the pseudoepehdrine all by itself they add it to another jar where theyve got iodine and red phosphorous and hydrochloric acid. They screw the li d on and shake the hell out of it for half an hour then leave l eave it sit for another half an hour. Then they open it back up try not to breath the fumes and add in the sodium hydroxide. hydroxide. Now they leave the lid off and shake it gentle trying to swirl i t until it gets cloudy looking which means the chemicals are reacting off each other. Then they add in ether and screw the l id back on so they can shake it for another 10 minutes. After that they leave it set for another 5 mins and then look for a middle layer in the jar. Theyll sit t here tapping at it to get the middle layer as thin as
possible which is what they want. After that they go in with the eyedropped and start taking the middle layer off bit by bit but make sure you unscrewed the lid of the jar or this will be real hard to do! hahaha They want the whole top layer without getting any of the bottom layer because they throw that layer away and just keep the top. Then they fill up the third jar with water about half way and drop in 10 drops of hyrdrochloric acid to it. They they pour that t op layer they sat there taking out with the eyedropper and put the lid on it . They shake that jar for another 10 minutes before they start using the eyedropper again to take off the top l ayer and throw that away. The bottom layer is what they want to keep and they evaporate it by heating which leaves behind crystals and those are the crank meth they're cooking for. Simple as that so they say and some people will call this the cold cook method. Remember that all the stuff they just used to make the crank cant be left where cops will find it because even if they did it wrong you still go to jail for having the ingredients and trying to put them together even if you didnt make the meth the right way.
The Nazi Method The so called Nazi meth recipe for crank is t alking about that during the end of WWII the Nazis had a hard time getting their meth made so they came up with a recipe to make it in the field. Since it basically works the same as the Red White and Blue method which is ironic! Its also called the Birch reduction method. Im not going to show this whole method but well take a look at the ingredients that are different in this method and they are:
- Red Phosphorous - Iodine - Anhydrous Ammonia - Lithium
This methods fast but Im not going into the process so look at the other recipe if you actually are stupid enough to want to know how it works but remember its absolutely
illegal to even get the ingredients so i say stay the hell away from all of it juts read and KNOW

about the History of Methamphetamines
Ok yes Hitler used meth! As a matter of fact the whole Nazi military did and so did the Japanese and the Allies even the USA but I will get to that after we cover the actual beginning of methamphetamine history ok? Lets start where it actually began. The first time they ever made or synthesized methamphetamine was in Japan in 1893 by a guy named Nagayoshi Nagai and he got it from ephedrine which oriental cultures had been interested in for a long time. They didnt get it into crystal meth form until 1919 when Akira
Ogata from Japan made it by reduction using red phosphorous and iodine like the crank cooks do now. Now before all this a German dude made amphetamine but as i keep on saying that is a whole other drug they call speed and NOT meth so Im not gonna talk about that here.
Now when they first invented methamphetamine it didnt so much all ready have a use. Not a particular medical condition or disease that they came up with it to treat but instead they made it first and then started looking for what it mi ght be good for. By the 1920s they were trying it on everything from depression to colds to whatever they could think of because surely such a powerful drug would be helpful medicine they thought. Up until the 1930s you really couldnt find methamphetamine but what you found instead was amphetamine and that got used to catch a buzz back then because of the Great Depression and Prohibition where they made alcohol illegal in the US if you can imagine that! The thing about methamphetamine was that it could be made easy as the guy in Japan proved and because it dissolved in water people could inject the stuff in their veins. So then along comes Word War II and we got not just the Japanese troops using meth but also the Nazis. They made meth in tablets under the name Pervitin in 1938 from a company called Temmler and found out that it could keep soldiers alert and make them need less
sleep DUH! So because of that they gave it out to sailors, soldiers and pilots sometimes put inside chocolate so it would be easier to take than the pill form. Another version called Isophan was also sent out to the front lines and to give you an idea we are talking huge amounts of this stuff like in 1940 before the Nazis cracked down on it because of abuse they put out 35 million tablets to the military between April and July of that year! Adolf Hitler himself hasnt been said to be a drug addict but when the Nazis started losing the war his Dr. Theodor Morell started giving him injects of methamphetamine every single day probably because they needed him to st ay awake longer and try to beat the Russians who were about to invade not t o mention the US and other Allies. Sometimes in videos they took of Hitler you could see his hands shake so some people say thats due to the meth but it could also be Parkinsons disease or syphillis depending on who you believe. On top of the Nazis getting the Pervitin they got booze for relaxing and sometimes even morphine which is basically heroin. In fact by the end of the war in 1944 the Nazis had an idea to make a drug called D-IX which was meth and cocaine with moriphine all in one pill. They figured that might help them make the super soldiers they wanted so bad. If you think this sounds like a great time to be an addict think again because if the military or other parts of Nazi
Germany thought you were becoming a addict then you might get to take a trip to a research center to be studied and become a canadate for "Law for Prevention of Offspring with Hereditary Diseases" which means they could castrate you to stop you from reproducing or even euthanize you if they so chose to. The Nazis were not the only ones to use methamphetamines for the soldiers though there was also Imperial Japan of course. Over there some they gave it to t o their soldiers and kamikaze pilots but that is not real clear. What is known is that after WWII the Japanese Imperial military stockpile got into the hands of the civilian people and they called it shabu. A huge problem of shooting up meth came around then in the late 40s and early 50s but Japan flat out banned the drug in 1951. Then the yakuza which is the Japanese version of the mafia started getting into dealing meth and some say they still do that today. Then in the US came Methedrine a prescription version of meth that doctors would perscribe for narcolepsy, obesity, depression and if you can believe it alcholism! These t ablets got used by college kids trying to study longer and truck drivers who had long hauls to make in the 50s. Then came the 60s and people started to make meth at home and alot more started shooting up methampetamine than before when they just took t ablets. In 1970 the Controlled Substances Act got passed which restricted alot of pharamaceutical grade meth production but of course it was too late t o stop people from taking the drug just to get high. Around the 70s is when the so-called outlaw motorcycle gangs got into the game. These guys made and distributed crank all up and down the West Coast which i s where meth became more popular. In 1983 the federal government passed laws to make it illegal to have the ingredients and supplies to manufacture meth and then in 1986 the Federal Controlled Substance Analogue Enforcement Act got passed to try and stop the designer drug craze. By this time crank started to catch on in the Midwest and South of the US especially in the small towns and out in the country because it was a cheap drug to make so poor people would try to make it and sell it like they did with bootlegging booze back in the day. By 1997 crank had gotten popular in the Midwest and South where it started to get noticed by the police in those places. While they say that meth use peaked in the 80s there sure wasnt no shortage of crank on the streets in the 90s and even after 2000 if you ask me. Even with those hard new laws what started happening was you saw more labs that people set up in cars or houses get busted. Why so many labs you ask? Well it got more expensive to buy the drug because instead of the bikers selling it you had the Mexican cartels getting into the scene and all the other big international crime organizations coming onto the scene and these are the same guys who have been dealing massive amounts of cocaine and
heroin for years so they know what they are doing. People turned to the home made crank to try and get it cheaper but wound up getting busted instead half the time. California of course is the major state where meth got produced especially in San Diego which a lot of people call the meth capital of the USA. By the 90 s youd see rich kids making what they called bikers coffee which was meth dropped into coffee and alot of tweekers came out the raver scene too where they would mix crank with ecstasy so they could dance all night or whatever. Every time a n ew generation or social clique starts using crank it takes a while for the bad effects to start showing because you got to remember that this drugs been out for now sixty years being used by people to get high and who knows when or if it will ever go away. You are talking a drug that goes for anywhere from three grand to $30,000 a pound! That is a reason why people keep risking all kinds of prison time and getting killed by competitors to keep getting it to the tweekers. We are about done with the history but l ast there is the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005 which is part of the Patriot Act and put in a bunch of new laws and regulations on the cold medicine like sudafed and contac plus other allergy medications. The idea being they could stop people from getting the raw ingredients to make crank meth and put an end to it being manufactured here in the US. So far the feds are saying its working but I imagine there are still t ons of tweekers out running around because i know I still see them from time to time even th o I dont have nothing to do with those kinds of people. The bad side effect of these laws may end up being that the raw ephedrine or pseudoephedrine starts coming from other countries in huge shipments so people still will make it here or also that the meth itself starts coming from overseas where they can make it cheaper or whatever. I doubt the story of crank is done yet. So what is my bottom line for showing you all this history? To prove to you how and why the drug started getting used in the first place and to show the ri sks that people making and or selling it are getting in to. Whether you think meth is a good thing or not you need to educate yourself on the laws and the history because theres no since in being ignorant about the world around you. The main thing that I think will ever make meth go away is if it doesnt make money because once it became illegal that was the main thing that kept it going people want to get paid! And crank addicts spend a hell of a lot of money to keep getting high over and over again so that is a perfect way for a dealer to make his money back fast on the investment of buying the drug or making it. Until the profits disappear I am thinking meth will be out on the streets. After all heroin and cocaine are even older and they cant be grown in the US yet they are still out there too. Atleast now you know how the drug came to be and what all happened back in the old days. It is up to all of you to write the rest of the story if you know what i am saying and I am sure you do.

(5 Grams):
7.5 Grams Iodine Prill or Iodine Crystals Ephedrine or Pseudoephedrine«.1665 Pills produces 5 Pure Grams Sodium Hydroxide«««««««1 Pint Red Devil Lye 3.5 Grams Red-Phosphorus«...5000 Matchbook¶s 250ml Glass Flask«««««««2 20oz Plastic Jug¶s«««««««2 Coffee Filters«««««««««.6 Electric Coffee Cup Warmer«.1 6¶¶ or longer Rubber Hoses«...3 Plastic Gallon Jug¶s«...1 The push/pull does not take a lot of skill but does take a bit of understanding of what one is dealing with. First of all this method does require some very watched items. Red phosphorous and iodine crystals can bring unwanted attention if ordered from different supply companies. If by chance one cannot seem to obtain these items anywhere, there is still hope. It is possible to obtain these items OTC (over the counter) at your nearest supermarket. If one can get one's hands on lab grade without getting a one-way ticket to the slammer, it is well worth it. The striking pads of matchbooks contain a small amount of red phosphorous. It is not pure, so consider cleaning it up a bit before use. It is possible to convert iodine tinctures to iodine crystals. Tinctures can be found on the shelves of many different supermarkets, and come in 30 ml bottles of 2% iodine in solution. Tinctures are also available at cattle supply houses, in pint and gallon sizes, which contain 7% iodine in solution. Iodine prill, a common name for iodine powder or pellets often available in cattle supply stores as well, works great just the way it is. There are many different ways to collect red phosphorous from the striking pads of matchbooks. Scraping it off with a razor blade is a simple collection process. A better way is to cut the strikers off and soak them in acetone until the red phosphorous falls off. It takes a very large number of strikers to obtain a large enough pile to do anything with, but it is a proven
method in use by many people. When all of the phosphorous falls off the paper, remove the paper, filter the acetone/red phosphorous through two coffee filters, rinse with distilled water, and let dry.
Now
mix up a solution of 20%
sodium hydroxide. That is 20% grams of sodium hydroxide in 100 ml of distilled water. Place the dry red phosphorous in a beaker or flask of choice and add the hydroxide solution to it. Heat this mixture on low heat for a few hours, and then filter through two coffee filters again. When dry, rinse with hot distilled water a few times and let dry. This will produce a more pure powder that will fire off a push/pull reaction.
To convert 2% iodine tinctures, the following are used: 500 ml 2% iodine tincture 125 ml muramic acid (hardware store strength) 235 ml hydrogen peroxide (3% topical solution) 862 ml distilled water To convert 7% iodine tinctures, the following are used: 1 pint of 7% tincture 3 pints of 3% peroxide 2 oz. of muriatic acid '/a cup of distilled water Pour the tincture in a one-gallon milk jug, add the muriatic acid, and mix it all together well. Let this mixture sit for half an hour.
Now
add the 3% hydrogen peroxide, with thorough mixing,
and let it sit for another half an hour.
Next,
add the distilled water and shake
vigorously until your arms tire, then let it sit for another half an hour. There should be an orange layer on top of a dark grey layer. The grey layer is what you want. The grey layer is iodine crystals that have crashed out of solution. Pour off the orange layer, add more fresh distilled water to them, and shake again. Let it sit for a few minutes, and then pour off the orange solution again. Repeat this process three times, and after the third time, pour the contents through two coffee filters.
Now
one must wring dry the crystals in the coffee
filters. Wring dry, put them in another stack of coffee filters, and wring them out again. Keep doing this until one gets a nice solid dry ball of crystals. That is it. One should have nice iodine crystals that will work in the reaction. Store the crystals in a dark-colored jar or bottle. Warning: When making one's own crystals from tinctures, wear eye protection and chemical resistant gloves. Remember that iodine is poisonous, so be safe, and work outdoors.
Figure 40 the Push/Pull Set Up STOPPER¶S, LIDS & HOSES SEALED TIGHT! As one can see from Figure 40, it is very easy to construct the apparatus for this reaction. A small clear beer bottle can replace the flask if one is not on hand. This setup easily scales larger or smaller for different size batches. If, for example, one wants to do a 20-gram batch, use a 500 ml flask or bottle and
two 64-oz. plastic Gatorade jugs. Make sure all the hoses scale in place because one does not want any leaks. The reaction can be very quick, but other times it may not be. Keep a bucket of dirt or sand at hand to smother any possible phosphorous fire. A phosphorous fire is a possibility, so be on the safe side. With lab grade red phosphorous and iodine crystals, the ratios by weight are 1-gram pseudoephedrine/ephedrine HCl to 1 gram of iodine crystals to 0.5 gram of red phosphorous. With OTC chemicals, the ratios are 1-gram pseudoephedrine/ephedrine HCl to 1.5 grams of iodine crystals to 0.7 gram of red phosphorous. So now, let us get started with the reaction. First thing to do is set up the push/pull vessel. Fill the first water tank with distilled water % of the way full. The second one leave empty. One can either put the drain hose from the second tank down the drain past the u trap or in a bucket of cat litter. Weigh out the pseudoephedrine/ephedrine HCl and place inside the flask or bottle, no more than a 10-gram batch in a
250 ml size flask or bottle.
Next
weigh out the iodine crystals and put them
inside with the pseudoephedrine/ephedrine HCl. Mix them together very well and stopper the flask or bottle and place it in the freezer for around 3-4 minutes. Weigh out the red phosphorous. Take the flask from the freezer, the reactants should be dark and may be a dark thick-looking mud. Place the red phosphorous in the flask, mix in good with a glass rod, and hook it up to the water tanks. If the drain hose is down the drain, it is time to turn on the water to keep the fumes down. If using lab grade chemicals, one may have to add a few drops of distilled water to get the reaction going. For OTC chemicals, one should need no water; just heat the reactants a little and it should be fine. Do not flood the reaction with water! Place the flask on a coffee cup warmer or in a hot water bath. When the reaction starts, take it off the heat. During the first phase of the reaction, the mixture turns to a thick liquid and starts bubbling. The small bubbles will be somewhat silvery looking. Some gas may now be pushing into the first water tank and water into the second. The contents inside the flask will raise some. A light yellow-colored mist and white fog inside the flask is normal. Continue to add, on and off, heat to maintain an easy bubbling reaction, at least around 15-20 minutes or until bubbling begins to slow. In the next phase, increase heat to the flask; slowly raise it up to between 160°-180° F. The reaction should begin to bubble very rapidly. The color of the reaction will change to a dark purple or reddish with a yellow tint. The small reaction bubbles will start turning into big bubbles that collapse into large holes. The reaction should be pushing gas into water tanks, but a lot harder this time. The contents will rise quickly, and may start to smoke. If so, remove from the heat and swirl the contents around in the flask to get the smoking to stop. Swirling will also keep the reactants from rising too high. Let react until all ^seems to be dead inside the flask (no reaction) even with applied heat. A pull may be
noted. If not, that is all right too. Sometimes there is no pull with small reactions. Tilt the flask. If reactants slowly flow off the bottom and sides and are not longer stuck, it should be finished. Let cool to room temperature, and then add 100 ml of distilled water.
Next,
in an open flask and on water bath,
heat the mixture at 150° F for 30 minutes in order to free the contents. Filter all the red phosphorous out of the mix. A couple of coffee filters also works well for filtering the red phosphorous out, the color should be clear to pale yellow. If one gets a dark orange or red color that does not filter out, the reaction might not be complete or the adulterants in the pills may have messed it up. If this is the case, try putting the red phosphorous back into the water from which it was filtered. Heat it up to about 200° F for two hours to complete it. If this does not work, the crap in the pills may have messed the reaction up. Now
it is time to base and extract the meth base with a non-polar solvent such
as toluene. Wash the solvent/base layer with distilled water a few times, and dry with dehydrated Epsom salts. Gas the solvent/base layer to get crystals of methamphetamine.
How to Make Meth The production of methamphetamine -- and the desire to consume it -- is seemingly unstoppable. When precursor chemicals are brought under tight control in one country, like the United States, production simply moves to another country, such as Mexico. When Mexican authorities clamp down, it moves farther south, or into Europe or Asia. Then, the finished product is shipped right back into the v ery countries that have waged such a battle to get it out. Most meth in the United States is made in large labs --"superlabs"-- in Mexico. There are many small meth labs in operation in the United States, but these mostly serve to feed the habits of the amateur cooks themselves.
Larry W. Smith/Getty Images Examples
of a items used in the production of methamphetamine inside the Pratt County Sheriff office in Pratt, Kan.
The production of methamphetamine has been made more difficult by federal regulations aimed at controlling the flow of precursor chemicals such as ephedrine and pseudoephedrine, as well as other necessary components. Through theft, subterfuge, forgeries, personal connections and sheer willpower, determined cooks are able to collect enough materials to make some home-grown meth. Being determined and being safe are two different things -- almost 6 pounds (2.7 kilograms) of toxic material is produced for each pound of meth cooked [source: Snell]. This fact, however, doesn't stop crystal meth addicts from brewing sloppy batches of fuming, stinking, toxic speed in poorly ventilated environments. Houses used as meth labs are often uninhabitable afterward, and cities and states involved in meth lab busts often don't bother with seizing the property, since nobody in their right mind would purchase it at an auction, even at a steep discount. Small meth labs can be found in suburban houses, motel rooms, car trunks, in campsites or in the woods. Outdoor operations often result in water contamination and a dying-off of nearby vegetation. Large-scale labs are often located inside abandoned barns or warehouses set up specifically for the purpose of factory-line production of methamphetamine. Although superlabs only make up 4 percent of total labs, they produce about 80 percent of the meth that winds up on the street [source: Suo]. Much as a destination can be reached by taking one of several different routes, so too can crystal methamphetamine be produced by a number of different methods. All of them, though, involve ephedrine or pseudoephedrine. The entire process can involve as many as 32 different chemicals [source: Snell]. Without getting into an exact recipe, we'll look at how large-scale operations (who are more likely to use a methodical and exact approach to their production) make crystal meth. y
If the ephedrine or pseudoephedrine isn't already in pure powder form, then it must be separated from the tablets of cold medicine that contain it. To do this, the cold medicine tablets
are mixed with a solvent and the solution is then filtered and exposed to low temperatures to separate and remove the inert material of the tablet. The pure pseudoephedrine is then mixed with red phosphorus and hydriodic acid. The red phosphorus is then filtered out (and later reused), and the remaining acid is neutralized by adding a lye solution. A substance is added that will bind to the meth, and the liquid meth is then drained out. Hydrogen chloride gas is bubbled through the liquid meth, making it a crystalline hydrochloride salt. This is poured through a filter cloth, and the m eth that is left on the filter is then dried. Once dry, the meth is "stepped on" (mixed down with inert filler in order to maximize profits), weighed and packaged for shipment or sale. This process generally takes about two days' time and can result in hundreds of thousands of methamphetamine doses. y y

Methamphetamine is a type of stimulant that activates the central nervous system. Its effects are increased wakefulness, increased physical activity, decreased appetite, increased respiration, and euphoria. It is most commonly used by obese patients since it decreases their appetite, helping them lose weight. But amidst its therapeutic effect, it is considered illegal because too much intake of methamphetamine can lead to adverse effects like irritability, insomnia, aggressiveness, hyperthermia, and convulsions that can lead to death. Make Methamphetamine with Your Household Items Methamphetamine is a drug that is very easy to make. With only the use of your simple household chemicals and equipments, you can make meth inside your own home. Dextropolamine 22-B, also called Egyptian Meth, is simple to make using your accessible products in the market. In making your meth, you will need 1 bag of kitty litter by only separating the blue tablets. The blue tablets are also known as sodium silicate. Use hydrogen peroxide and pour it in an empty 2-liter bottle. Then add 25 drops of iodine tincture into the 2-liter bottle of hydrogen peroxide. Insert a surgical tube to the bottle, then place the blue tablets through the tube. Place a balloon on the open end of the tube, then empty the blue tablet to the 2-liter bottle. The sodium silicate will react with the mixture of hydrogen peroxide and iodine. Hydrogen chloride will then be formed after the mixture. Fill a large bowl with a gallon of distilled water. Put three cups of Epson salt (Magnesium sulfate) to the bowl, then add ice. Insert the gas tube and slowly let the gas stream into the water. The hydrogen chloride will react with the magnesium sulfate. Pour the solution to a coffee filter, and then let it dry. After the solution is dried, you can now use your homemade meth. This is only one of the types of meths you can produce in your household. Word of Caution Even though, meths are very easy to make. We must consider its effects in our body, especially our central nervous system. Extreme use of meths can lead to death. Aside from its bad effects in the body, making methamphetamine inside your household is really hazardous. You must take necessary precautions when making meth. The chemicals used in making meths can be inflammable and poisonous. That¶s why saying ³No´ to drugs is the best solution to a healthy lifestyle and a happy life.
