Two points I gotta make: Don't be afraid to use extra water for the coffee bean extraction- you can always reduce down by boiling (caffeine is pretty hard to burn, you'd have to get it past 235C to even think about it). Also I feel like drying the DCM was largely unnecessary and even harmful (the salt water likely stole a significant portion of your yield). Since you are drying your solvent with heat, why worry about having an anhydrous solution?
You can boil the coffee in sulfuric acid (to free it from it's acid-bound form), make it slightly basic with NaOH and extract it with chloroform instead of DCM (both work fine probably). We used that method at uni.
In my personal experience alkaloids extract better from plant matter in an acidic environment and once filtered and the volume reduced freebasing the alkaloids into a suitable organic solvent that is miscible with target freebase alkaloids....sometimes butanol can do wonders Also if the water is holding the alkaloids you can always salt out the alkaloids using an appropriate salt..just saying their are better ways to do this extraction and get better yields...patience pays off tremendously
Did this at school in the 1960s but used a large catering can of Nescafe instant coffee. Got quite a lot of caffeine yeild out of it which went very well with the moonshine alcohol made from fermented and distilled sugar and yeast. Hell of a party that weekend.
Chemistry is fascinating. The entire time I was wondering whether the dichloromethane would be removed, and if so, how. In the end, he just heated it up because dichloromethane has a low boiling point. Fascinating that it's possible to do all this mixing and removing!!!
DCM is an organic solvent, think of this as if you were to dissolve a bunch of salt in water, then it's intuitively evident in order to get rid of the solvent you'd boil or evap the water and in the end you'll be left with salt
Neat to see these early videos when he's still working on his eventual catchphrase, "Honestly, the yield is pretty bad, but I still have more *blank than I need."
@Eric Johnson that's why I edited the comment after realizing this hiccup. It could be used the same if dilute enough although it would no doubt taste unpleasant. Remembering back alkali/alkaline earth metal carbonates are a large constituent to ash from wood fire. They are usually a bit less soluble than the bicarbonate form and may have higher ph though I never got to test that.
Years ago, my brother bought a 1 kg tub of pure anhydrous caffeine so that we could caffeinate just about anything we chose to drink. This experiment gives me a special appreciation for the processing that went into that.
Copy paste Put in 10g of coffee into a container followed by 4g of sodium carbonate, then add in 60mL of distilled water (increase amount of ingredients for larger quantities) , and then bring the solution to boil for 15 minutes, stir or shake occasionally to prevent it from foaming over, or turn down the heat to simmer, once the 15 minutes is over you can let it cool but make sure to keep the temp as high as possible, and then strain it in a coffee filter, and then add 100mL of boiling distilled water, then pour the mixture into a separatory funnel and then add 15mL of dichloromethane, and gently shake it around, after that pour out the DCM which has the caffeine in it, and repeat the process with the remaining coffee, and then pour the DCM into a clean separatory funnel along with a saturated salt solution to pull water from the solvent, and then gently shake it again before pouring out the DCM, and add in drying agents like molecular sieves and dry for 20 minutes before placing it into a new beaker, and the boil to remove the DCM, but don't overheat it as it will burn, and then, once dry, recrystallize the remaining substance with a 95% ethanol solution, and then let to rest in the freezer before vaccum filtering and letting it dry in the vaccum for a few minutes.
Yeah, a group of my friends go really into it and were buying pure cofein to snort. One of them almost did OD (he was having muscle spasms, chest pain etc.) and had to be hospitalized. While it is almost impossible to OD on caffeinated beverages, it is extremely easy to do so on pure caffeine.

Nice video! We compared caffeine content years ago at varsity on different beverages. Contrary to popular belief, a shot of espresso had the lowest caffeine content of everything we tested (lower than tea, instant coffee and perculated coffee, etc). This was mainly due to the short infusion time when extracting espresso from the machine (20 seconds). The type of roast also influenced the caffeine content - the darker the roast, the stronger it tastes, but the less caffeine it contains due to longer roasting. So if you want to stay awake, leave the espresso and opt for a weak tasting, but "powerful" pale roasted perculated coffee.
I feel like there is a fine line between the right amount of caffeine and productivity since working faster doesn't always mean that the output is as productive, but it is some what better to have coffee but not specifically multiple cups a day

Quantification of caffeine is something everyone has to do at the university for pharmacy. All in all the method is pretty much the same, except you do have to shake it a good amount. You said that there is a possibility to make an emulsion. Well thats true, but the emulsion is not stable and will disperse again after a short time, overwise use a bit more DCM. You can also cook the coffee for a longer time, those 15 minutes are not enough. Also try to invest into a Rotavapor, just cooking DCM is not a good idea at all (I hope you got some air-filtering unit above it or a digestor). We use Sodiumsulfate instead of a molecular sieve as drying agent for the DCM. We didn't recrystalise, because we made titrations with it. Reason is also because its purity won't be that good (far from 99%). Cheaper to just buy the pure caffeine from your trusted merchant / pharmacy. but nice vid!
I think part of the problem in the low yield may be that the brewing technique that you used didn't get all of the caffeine out of the coffee. I say this because it has been found that properly brewed pour over coffee (which is effectively what you were doing) has a higher density of caffeine than espresso.
why use codeine? it is HORRIBLE.. it has a ceiling limit of 300mg, it causes itchyness and possible hives not to mention headaches.. just use hot water and lemon juice to extract morphine from poppy seeds.

This was really well explained. An interesting video would be one on extracting the alkaloids from tobacco. WTA is hard to buy and it would be good to see how hard it is to make.
One trick I learned years ago with coffee is hold the filter firm with one hand and sharply tap the side of the thing with the other fingers, a sharp rap will make the water go thru faster.
You should try this experiment again with chloroform as the solvent. I am planning out the experiment and still have to make more chloroform. Caffeine is apparently 2 times more soluble in chloroform than in DCM. The only downside would be the fumes from boiling, but you have a fume hood. I think it'd be interesting since basically everybody uses DCM for caffeine extractions. Well, I tried it with caffeine pills and it worked really well. I got a relatively low yield because I was sloppy and a lot of the caffeine was lost on the walls of the containers after the chloroform evaporated off. I didn't have enough chloroform to do proper washings. Still ended up with about 8 grams of impure caffeine. I'm going to recrystallize it from water tomorrow.
Lol I’d personally be terrified of running a reaction using chloroform, especially without good access to a fume hood. Are there other solvents that could do the job that *wouldn’t* knock me out if I slipped up? 😂
In my school canteen they used to add sodium carbonate to the tea to make it stronger. At that time I used to think that was an urban legend. Years later I'm learning it can actually make tea/coffee stronger!
This would make an excellent chem lab project! Coffee, simple-ish process, and of course, and inexplicably low yeild that you have to explain using BS in the final report! I should tell my former college’s chem department about this lol!
Honestly making people decide the amount of caffeine they want in a drink instead of just "caffeine or no caffeine" isn't that crazy of an idea if you really think about it
The lighter the roast, the more caffeine content. Medium to dark roasts are roasted longer and as a result have more caffeine burned off for a more full-bodied coffee experience.
i have a theory for an at home crystalization, step 1 should follow brew 1 pot of strong coffee, a big pot. step 2 take the probably cold coffee and evaporate most of the water off, if you filled up the brewing pot with coffee, then reduce it to a quarter of that if possible, it will probably start to burn the bottom of the pot if not constantly stirring, step 3 after reducing the amount of water freeze the pot of coffee in the freezer till frozen solid, after being frozen solid stick back on the stove and heat it back up till its all melted, this entire step should be done in a stove pot along with the evaporation step, step 4 mix rubbing alcohol into the solution, if you have a quarter of the pot roughly, mix a quarter of a quarter of the 90% rubbing alcohol into the pot, stir then pour the pot into a clear column of some sort, like a graduated cylinder but a vase without numbers and is used for plants, or a graduated cylinder works if you have that, allow the layers to seperate, if they dont it fucked up, 75% alcohol does not work for caffeine extraction, the alcohol is indistinguishable from the water, ive tried doing this with pills, i have a 2 gram water bottle waiting to be done something with in my room, 90% iso propyl alcohol should work, 99% is the best, mix and if theres 2 definable layers, take the clear one and boil off alll of the alcohol, which is kind of dangerous so do outdoors, pretty sure all alcohol vapors are toxic in some form whether inebriating, or lethal inhalation so work safely, after boiling you have uncrystalized caffeine an unkown amount, it should be more because its a brewed pot of coffee, you could even just cool and heat the alcohol solution a lot and it could crystalize, or allow it to sit in a still environment for a very long time, i had a water bottle in my room with equate DXM guaifenesin pills mixed into it, i let it sit for 8 months and when i was going to throw it away i seen all of the FINE crystals at the bottom of the bottle, and when i flicked it, crystals fell from the top of the water, i believe the DXM hbr isolated itself and crystalized out of the water, its EXTREMELY bitter and has a faint extremely faint odor that i would associate with the chemical guaifenesin, but when I did a heat test on tinfoil to test whether it was guaifenesin or dxmhbr depending on how fast it burnt with the lighter under it and it burnt up quite fast, the smell was im not even sure, the smell makes my brain wonkey when i think about it though, its definitely probably DXM.
+fpm1979 I should have mentioned that! If the goal is to get caffeine, they just make it. If the goal is decaf coffee, there are several. ways. Two commons ones are super-critical CO2 and using methylene chloride directly on the coffee beans.
Hi NileRed! I've recently been using a supplement called licorice root; but it has glycyrrhizic acid which poses some health problems with long term use. There is such a thing as a deglycerrhizinated licorice root. I've recently procured pure licorice root powder and I wanted to know how you would deglycerrhizinate it in the lab. Thanks!
10g coffee: checked. 4g sodium carbonate: checked. 40 ml DCM: *dammit!* ;\ BTW how do you know that this white powder is really just a pure caffeine and not some other similarly-looking stuff mixed with it?
To expedite the filtration and minimize coffee loss I would recommend dampening the filter with DI water. Wet it after you begin brewing and it should be damp but not soaked.
+Tommy Rad I am not sure. Getting amino acids out from the huge mix of them would be really hard and I feel like the concentration is probably pretty low. What is your interest in L-theanine?
Nile Red Well, it's why I like tea [oolong] because it b-slaps the caffeine into the background and, allows me to drink tea all day. Really enjoy your videos. Very helpful.
I vaguely remember extracting caffeine, from tea, using a steam distillation step, followed by a precipitation step using lead acetate. Final purification was sublimation in a heat pistol thing.
Vitamin A isn't in carrots. Beta Carotene is in Carrots and when your body consumes it, it processes the Beta Carotene into the Vitamin A that you need. You can overdose on too much Vitamin A consumption. You can't OD on carrots.
10 grams of coffee makes how many cups of coffee? If it's about one, your yield seems pretty great. Periodic videos extracted caffeine from 6 cups of coffee and got around 100 mg. That's about 16.6 mg per cup for them, your 30 mg looks like a much better yield. Unless they had an unusually low yield, your yield seems a lot higher.
+Mr.chang cooler I really don't know how much coffee it makes unfortunately. I just based the yield on how much caffeine there theoretically is in coffee
Nile Red But perhaps you could try Periodic Video's method of extracting caffeine. That'd definitely give some variation between the tea extraction and the coffee extraction, and i'd love to see if your yield ends up being better than this yield.
That is true. I kind of did it and then realized it was the same, ha. Also, I actually dont have a coffee maker at home anymore...so that makes things more difficult.
Nile Red Ah, that is unfortunate. You kind of did what a coffee maker does anyway though, run hot or boiling water through ground coffee. You'd just have to adjust your measurement to a cup.

This was really well explained. An interesting video would be one on extracting the alkaloids from tobacco. WTA is hard to buy and it would be good to see how hard it is to make.
Please make this one.
I add ginger powder and coffee powder and add sugar and milk and some water in it
I remember this experiment when I was in Organic Chemistry. It was actually our first experiment. It was super fun. ^_^
@javiertrx4 Do you snort Caffeine?
One trick I learned years ago with coffee is hold the filter firm with one hand and sharply tap the side of the thing with the other fingers, a sharp rap will make the water go thru faster.
You should try this experiment again with chloroform as the solvent. I am planning out the experiment and still have to make more chloroform. Caffeine is apparently 2 times more soluble in chloroform than in DCM. The only downside would be the fumes from boiling, but you have a fume hood. I think it'd be interesting since basically everybody uses DCM for caffeine extractions.
Well, I tried it with caffeine pills and it worked really well. I got a relatively low yield because I was sloppy and a lot of the caffeine was lost on the walls of the containers after the chloroform evaporated off. I didn't have enough chloroform to do proper washings. Still ended up with about 8 grams of impure caffeine. I'm going to recrystallize it from water tomorrow.
Lol I’d personally be terrified of running a reaction using chloroform, especially without good access to a fume hood.
Are there other solvents that could do the job that *wouldn’t* knock me out if I slipped up? 😂
@@SpartanChief17C Yes. Chloroform. This is chemistry not hollywood. Chloroform doesn't work like in the movies.

In my school canteen they used to add sodium carbonate to the tea to make it stronger. At that time I used to think that was an urban legend. Years later I'm learning it can actually make tea/coffee stronger!
So, can I snort it, and it'll still make me poop?
This guy has his priorities set straight XD
Caffeine doesn't make you poop, though

Caffeine stimulates the GI tract, so that would naturally mean a faster stool movement...
How to extract pseudoephedrine from paracetamol.
And then onto another extraction tutorial. This is gonna take awhile.
;)
Lmao
Lol
Then extract meth from pseudoephedrine
This would make an excellent chem lab project! Coffee, simple-ish process, and of course, and inexplicably low yeild that you have to explain using BS in the final report! I should tell my former college’s chem department about this lol!
1 shot of Espresso (10 grams of coffee grind -> 15 grams of liquid) contains about 30ish mg, so your yield is pretty damn amazing tbh.
The new Deconstructed Coffee. People are going to be asking for this at cafe's in the future.
Honestly making people decide the amount of caffeine they want in a drink instead of just "caffeine or no caffeine" isn't that crazy of an idea if you really think about it
Its fun turning caffeine powder into caffeine-citrate.
For me it had less of the known nasty sideeffects.
The last bits reminded me how well my dmt extraction went :o
This dudes such a freakin nerd. I love it.
*Normal people at 7 am:* man need my coffee
*Me at 7am with my beer:* huh. Coffee. Hm.
you could try using robusta instead of Arabica coffee. because robusta contains more caffeine
Was wondering why everything looked so familiar.
Realised I've tried this before at school.
We used bottled coffee

You could just buy half a gramm pure caffeine from your local "coffee-shop" aka the place you get your bongs and papes
or you could just buy a kilo of caffeine powder off ebay
@@cvspvr or you could buy 10 kids on the black market and they will extract caffeine from coffee for you
@@St4ckie or you could buy one genius chinese kid and lock him in your basement and force him to develop coffee beans that extract themselves
The lighter the roast, the more caffeine content.
Medium to dark roasts are roasted longer and as a result have more caffeine burned off for a more full-bodied coffee experience.
i have a theory for an at home crystalization, step 1 should follow brew 1 pot of strong coffee, a big pot. step 2 take the probably cold coffee and evaporate most of the water off, if you filled up the brewing pot with coffee, then reduce it to a quarter of that if possible, it will probably start to burn the bottom of the pot if not constantly stirring, step 3 after reducing the amount of water freeze the pot of coffee in the freezer till frozen solid, after being frozen solid stick back on the stove and heat it back up till its all melted, this entire step should be done in a stove pot along with the evaporation step, step 4 mix rubbing alcohol into the solution, if you have a quarter of the pot roughly, mix a quarter of a quarter of the 90% rubbing alcohol into the pot, stir then pour the pot into a clear column of some sort, like a graduated cylinder but a vase without numbers and is used for plants, or a graduated cylinder works if you have that, allow the layers to seperate, if they dont it fucked up, 75% alcohol does not work for caffeine extraction, the alcohol is indistinguishable from the water, ive tried doing this with pills, i have a 2 gram water bottle waiting to be done something with in my room, 90% iso propyl alcohol should work, 99% is the best, mix and if theres 2 definable layers, take the clear one and boil off alll of the alcohol, which is kind of dangerous so do outdoors, pretty sure all alcohol vapors are toxic in some form whether inebriating, or lethal inhalation so work safely, after boiling you have uncrystalized caffeine an unkown amount, it should be more because its a brewed pot of coffee, you could even just cool and heat the alcohol solution a lot and it could crystalize, or allow it to sit in a still environment for a very long time, i had a water bottle in my room with equate DXM guaifenesin pills mixed into it, i let it sit for 8 months and when i was going to throw it away i seen all of the FINE crystals at the bottom of the bottle, and when i flicked it, crystals fell from the top of the water, i believe the DXM hbr isolated itself and crystalized out of the water, its EXTREMELY bitter and has a faint extremely faint odor that i would associate with the chemical guaifenesin, but when I did a heat test on tinfoil to test whether it was guaifenesin or dxmhbr depending on how fast it burnt with the lighter under it and it burnt up quite fast, the smell was im not even sure, the smell makes my brain wonkey when i think about it though, its definitely probably DXM.
How does the food industry extract caffeine from coffee?
+fpm1979 I should have mentioned that! If the goal is to get caffeine, they just make it. If the goal is decaf coffee, there are several. ways. Two commons ones are super-critical CO2 and using methylene chloride directly on the coffee beans.
This seems appropriate to watch now that I’m sipping my afternoon coffee
"I'm just gonna go ahead and blame Folger's" is how I'm going to react to anything wrong in my life hereafter.
Hi NileRed! I've recently been using a supplement called licorice root; but it has glycyrrhizic acid which poses some health problems with long term use. There is such a thing as a deglycerrhizinated licorice root. I've recently procured pure licorice root powder and I wanted to know how you would deglycerrhizinate it in the lab. Thanks!
Liquorice is bad for your cholesterol
10g coffee: checked.
4g sodium carbonate: checked.
40 ml DCM: *dammit!* ;\
BTW how do you know that this white powder is really just a pure caffeine and not some other similarly-looking stuff mixed with it?
Sci Twi sell a half gram for $50 an wait for the report lol
You can use chloroform instead of DCM

To expedite the filtration and minimize coffee loss I would recommend dampening the filter with DI water. Wet it after you begin brewing and it should be damp but not soaked.

Is it possible to extract L-Theanine from tea? Love your extraction videos, thanks!
+Tommy Rad I am not sure. Getting amino acids out from the huge mix of them would be really hard and I feel like the concentration is probably pretty low. What is your interest in L-theanine?
Nile Red
Well, it's why I like tea [oolong] because it b-slaps the caffeine into the background and, allows me to drink tea all day.
Really enjoy your videos. Very helpful.
Tommy Rad thanks, I am glad you enjoy them!
I will TOTALLY not abuse this information.

How to extract vitamin A from carrot?
Vitamin A isn't in carrots. Beta Carotene is in Carrots and when your body consumes it, it processes the Beta Carotene into the Vitamin A that you need. You can overdose on too much Vitamin A consumption. You can't OD on carrots.
@@tweakingonwindows6132 True, but you can turn orange.
10 grams of coffee makes how many cups of coffee? If it's about one, your yield seems pretty great. Periodic videos extracted caffeine from 6 cups of coffee and got around 100 mg. That's about 16.6 mg per cup for them, your 30 mg looks like a much better yield. Unless they had an unusually low yield, your yield seems a lot higher.
+Mr.chang cooler I really don't know how much coffee it makes unfortunately. I just based the yield on how much caffeine there theoretically is in coffee
Nile Red But perhaps you could try Periodic Video's method of extracting caffeine. That'd definitely give some variation between the tea extraction and the coffee extraction, and i'd love to see if your yield ends up being better than this yield.
That is true. I kind of did it and then realized it was the same, ha. Also, I actually dont have a coffee maker at home anymore...so that makes things more difficult.
Nile Red Ah, that is unfortunate. You kind of did what a coffee maker does anyway though, run hot or boiling water through ground coffee. You'd just have to adjust your measurement to a cup.
Nile Red Also, how did you get your theoretical yield?
Hey I found the same thing in my stainer .
I was a little suspicious so happy you told us what it was. Thanks so much GL🍀
will you do a video where you sinthesize it ?
Eventually
lol when you start with 10 grams of coffee, of course you're going to get a pitiful amount of caffine. Use the whole can!
crazy808ish the cost of the chemicals would horribly outweigh the amount of caffeine yielded (which isn't expensive in the first place)
