    You said that you only did the first nitration, right? You were probably using slightly less concentrated ingredients then. Doing it on a hotplate with oleum and fuming nitric (required for all three nitrations) is madness.

      Yeah that probably makes more sense. I think we were just using bog standard sulfuric acid and nitric acid.
