New Method to Make Meth in Soda Bottles Makes it Easy for Anyone

This Dangerous Drug Can Now Be Easily Made in a Soda Bottle by Anyone

Just when the arrests for methamphetamine are starting to decline, in comes a new way to produce this addictive substance that requires very little effort. This new method of making meth requires just a few cold pills, soda bottle, and a few other easy to obtain chemicals. Mixed together and shaken it produces a deadly cocktail.

Meth producing use to require elaborate labs that took time to assemble and take down. It required many flammable liquids and hot boiling chemicals to cook this substance. Meth labs were being raided daily. They were messy and smelly and hard to conceal. This meth making device can be put in your back pack and carried around. It takes a few seconds to place the ingredients in a soda bottle and shake. The chemical reaction occurs and you have your instant meth. It is being called the "shake and bake" way to make meth.

Laws were put into place so you could not purchase a pill that had pseudoephedrine in it unless requesting it from behind the counter in a pharmacy. It was not prescription, but you were only allowed to buy small amounts. This new "shake and bake" method requires just a few of those pills which falls way under the radar that might draw attention from the authorities. This new method can be made in the back seat of your car.

To make this new form of the deadly drug, the pills are crushed and combined with some common household chemicals. It is then shaken in a soda bottle. No flame is required to make the meth in a soda bottle, making this a much easy recipe.

The new formula is made in smaller batches but can be as dangerous to make as the old version. If any oxygen is left in the bottle when opened after the shaking, it can blow up into a giant fireball. Just unscrewing the bottle cap too fast can set off that type of fireball explosion. Every meth recipe is dangerous for explosions, but with this recipe if you do not shake the bottle just right it can explode. If it builds up too much pressure during the shaking process an explosion is what most likely will follow.

In the older meth home labs the fires broke out on top of stoves and people did have time to run from this explosion. With this method they are holding it in their hands when it explodes leading to the possibilities of more serious injuries and even more deaths then before.

After the shaking process the chemical reaction leaves a residue whidh is the crystalline powder that people smoke, inject or snort. The left over bottles contain a hazardous sludge that is poisonous. These are just being thrown out in our regular garbage collections or littered on the streets and in the parks.

This make it yourself meth process allows the user to make a small amount, just enough for a few hits. This is a very inexpensive way to support your own meth habit, making this even more tempting for the daily user who would spend a ton of money purchasing the drug every day.

    I am old enough now that in my day in the ED the drug was marijuana, valium, sleeping meds and pain meds including the never seen again "Qualude" so all I have seen or heard about Meth is from newcasts and specials on TV. Sad and stupid...being drunk is bad enough...these meth labs kill children and innocent adults who may be sharing housing...go find a place far away...give your children to someone who wants to be parents and save everyone else from your habit..if the lab blows up..oh well..the hazard of the job so to speak...get a life please before you take a few more with you...
