L carnitine

[gotgrowth]

Does anyone have a idiots guide to making a batch of l carnitine? im seeing a lot of 500mg/ml out there but have been iffy with the pip

I’m looking to make 50/100ml at a time. I don’t normally homebrew but I’m pretty sure I can handle this. Just don’t want to mess up the ratios

Thanks

sterile water
1-2% BA

It doesnt get more complicated then that.

I’ve never brewed anything before. So
When you say 1-2% ba. is that 1-2% of the total volume of product im making (50/100ml). Do I have to take into account the weight or volume of the actual compound ?

It is 1-2% of the final volume of the mix

so if your final volume is to be 100ml then the BA would be 1-2ml

Yes to your 2nd question. L-carnitine powder is going to displace the volume. An easy way to account for it is to place you raws in a beaker, add BA and add BAC or sterile water until you get to 50 ml or 100ml line on the beaker. I am assuming BAC or sterile way; I have only brewed holy oils

500mg/ml Carnitine ... i m waiting my carnitine to arrive so i dont know its displacement yet

But... 500mg per ml is 0.5g per 1ml , so for 100ml of total solution you ll need 50g of L Carnitine and the remaining water to reach 100ml of solution. (I ll use Bac Water)

i ll put 50g of L Carnitine into a beaker, i ll add 1% BA, so 1ml to the powder and then i ll add the water till i reach the 100ml notch...

i ll filter it and i ll done

 

[gotgrowth]

that seems perfect. What are you filtering with? 1 pass or two ?

I use a PTFE 0.22 micrometer filter

 

[gotgrowth]

Just one pass?

Can you buy the powder from Amazon?

Or you recommend getting it from elsewhere?

 

[FR0Z3N_B0MB3RRR]

I think it should be g2g since its just an aminoacid

Not sure if it's the same but mine from a solid ugl says carnitine base if you google that you can find the powder in bulk not sure if it's the same as tartrate

 

[endo bear]

Do you guys think distilled water would be fine if I add BA and filtering it? Technically it would be a sterile water for injection am I right?

Also heating is not necessary?

 

[FR0Z3N_B0MB3RRR]

Yes.... if heat it you ll evaporate BB

Pretty much what you want is Carnitine Base when you're making Inj. Carnitine. PureRaws carries it in the USA and ships intl afaik. You can order kilos of the stuff. You do not want to inject ALCAR lol.

 

[Monkipalo]

I can't find Pure Raws carnitine. Pretty sure people have been brewing with both and idk about the carnitne base

Trust me you want Carnitine Base, I'm looking at the UGL I use and its base, most use Base, I *think* you can use Tartrate.

Hey man sorry for the thread bump. Im about to make my own brew of l carnitine. I was under the impression that if you used back water you do not need to add 1-2% BA. Is that not correct?
