The solution is a 32 characters long plain-text (the private key).
As far as I know, there is no 32 character private key. A mini private key would have 30 characters.

usually every character is represented as 1 byte and considering a private key is 32 bytes you can simply convert a 32 char long string to a 32 byte long byte array and use it as a private key.
for instance this sentence ("Hi this is satoshi nakamoto comb") is 32 byte long and can be represented as "48692074686973206973207361746f736869206e616b616d6f746f20636f6d62" in base16 or "KyeU5gX2cQJvtJkSGLetfHPmZaBJpauf3D6yDuP6tDAdzjCrAHnL" in base58 WIF.
