Thread: Thinking about brewing, Have questions

Alright, so the 10ml syringe is the wrong type, you need 10ml luer lock syringe, no these are not reusable there one time use. The syringe filter needs to be .2 micron and it need to be pvdf, pvdf is the material the filter is made of it resistant solvents like ba and bb others may melt. Get multiple filters you may only use 2 but I would have at least 4-5 on hand. Last you need 20g slip tip needles for filling the vials, slip tip is what fits on the other side of the filter. Sponsors I’m not going to do all the leg work for you, but there are a few that offer domestic raws, look at purple panda labs. If you have other questions ask! Do you need 25 vials if your planning on making 60mls? That’s only 6 vials.

Thanks guys,
I want the 25 vials because of the better price, and with hopes of making more in the future. I think I will go with the BB also as Droid recommends it. I'm going to start ordering my lab gear this coming week after I decide exactly what I want.

You may not need it! But it’s better to have it on hand then need it and not have it. Good luck man! Brewing your own is the way to go

Make sure you get .2 micron filters, not .45. .45 is fine to filter all bacteria but .2 will filter out any contaminates including viruses.

The BB shouldn’t be necessary as I’ve read from multiple reliable sources that test e will hold fine without it. You might run into an issue with it crashing if its in the cold but other than that you’ll be fine. I’d recommend getting BB to have on hand in case it doesn’t hold. I’ve never made test e without BB personally. I use 2% ba and 10% BB for test e.

Droid, I hate to sound like a newb but what do you mean by "not hold"?

BB is an emulsifier which means it helps to dissolve the raws your using. So say you are trying to make test e at a high concentration (~500mg/ml) you’ll need to add more BB in order for it to “hold” or stay in solution. When something doesn’t hold it means it’s fallen out of solution. You’ll see crystals form in the oil. You shouldn’t have that issue with test e at a normal 250mg/ml concentration though. I use BB always even when not necessary just in case.

Raw the nylon filter is good to go, double check if it's compatible with the solvents you're gonna use (BA). I agree with what droid1988 said. Yeah you can use that oil np

There is no need for BB with test e. Put your carrier oil and raw in beaker, heat in vat of water. Get your solution over 200° F. And keep it there for 20-30 minutes. Let it cool add your BA, and filter. Carbolic acid is used in the manufacturing proccess of the raw. It will evaporate at around 180-190°. The carbolic acid is whats causing the pip. Do this process and you will have smooth as silk test e.

Hey friend Ive had quite a bit of experience brewing successfully but taken year or so off an will be getting 100 gram premixed Sustanon 250, the last time i brewed this mix from diff source it crashed, i follwed normal protocol as i did for Test E, what should I do differently to ensure sustanon doesn't crash? Add EO with BBan BA or anything else, MCT or GSO? Thanks

I just brewed sus 250 last week with 2%BA and 15%BB with no issues at all. Took solution to 120F and held it there for a few minutes then filtered through .2 micron autofil SS bottletop filter.

You can't use the test e recipe to make sustanon since it's a mix of different esters. That's probably why it crashed.
Test e has a melting point at ~35c.
I'd go with 2%ba and 20%bb for the sust @ 250mg/ml
