Shake and Bake or One Pot Meth Making

The newest way to make meth is called the Shake n’ Bake or One-pot method and poses a new danger to communities

New on the scene is the easiest and possibly most dangerous way of making meth. Using the one-pot method means that meth cooks can make meth in one sealed container which is generally flipped upside-down to cause the reaction needed to turn several toxic ingredients into meth. This method generally produces meth in smaller quantity, but doesn’t make it any less dangerous.

The chemical reaction going on inside the container (which can be anything from a Coleman fuel can to a soda bottle) causes an extremely high amount of pressure to build up within the container after being shaken; this method can cause a pretty large explosion. In fact, just the other day, a man died from making meth this way.

The biggest danger in relation to this method is the fact that it is fast and portable. So portable in fact, that it is most common to find people using this method to make meth in their car. They generally drive around while the meth is being made to release the fumes and when the process is over, some 40 minutes later, they simply chuck the used container filled with toxic chemical residue out of the window. Aside from the environmental impact this has, it also poses a hazard to children that naturally want to explore and pick up the things they find.

The remnants of the chemicals that remain in the container are generally muddy brown in color. If you suspect someone of making meth using this method please contact authorities as soon as possible. This type of meth lab is really a mobile ticking time bomb. If you come accross a discarded container used in one-pot (shake and bake) meth making do not touch it - contact the police department to discard it, as they will likely need to have a haz-mat team clean up the mess left behind.

      Damn. That's scary. Meth is already so easy to get, this just makes it even easier. Now you don't even need a room of your own. You don't even need a table. 40 minutes and a crock pot? That is horrendously awful.

      What's worse is that you don't even have to have any money really other than to purchase a few simple ingredients. Because the amount is so small they can generally get in under the federal laws that limit the amount of pseudoephedrine purchased. So the amount of smurfing they have to do is limited as well. If meth manufacturers used their craftiness in positive ways rather than to make meth, well needless to say, we would all be better off.

      I was just outside today in a city preserve doing wildlife photography when I found two, 2-liter bottles in the woods which turned out to be this type of meth. Not knowing exactly what they were, but having a hazy idea, I foolishly picked them up and removed them from the woods to a city trash can in the adjacent city park, whereafter I called the police. The spot where I found them was approximately 75 yards from where children play and people use the park. I had never seen this kind of contraption before, and was reprimanded and advised by the public safety officers to LEAVE IT WHERE IT IS next time, for just such reasons as I've read about above and online. I had to come home and decontaminate everything and myself as a precaution. It makes me very sad and sick at heart that this is happening to people- all God's children -right under our noses, while being a wildlife advocate this makes me just ache for the damage to the environment- to God's Creation.
