My Test E turned to solid gel... now garbage?

[bornSkinny]

I brewed some Test E about a year ago with great results. Put the rest away for later. Getting ready to brew again and it’s in a soft solid state.

I stored in vacuum sealed bag with some desiccant packs, air tight container, cool dark dry place. Also had some cyp, deca, and a little mast e with it, all of which seem fine.

Is this test E now garbage?
I’ve tried searching threads but haven’t seen anything with positive results. Thanks.

You've been here long enough to know what to do ?? ....HOT WATER !
Usually its the test cyp that gels when cold but test-e and Sustanon will too . Pour some hot water in a cup let vial get mostly covered for about 10 minutes , shaking the vial every once in a while . Work it and it will go back to liquid ....~Ogh

Even for raws? I think he’s referring to his raws.

Do you know the purity of your Test E? It may have melted a little then cooled if you are sure oxygen and or moisture didn’t get to it. Should be fine to brew. Try a small batch say 50 ml and leave it in a 50 or 100 ml vial for a while. Before putting it in 10ml vials. For that added comfort don’t go over 300mg a ml and use more BB than usual as if you are brewing Cypionate

Normal. Jelly old Testosterone. Storage, light, temperature, impurities from the source or from your manipulation. yadayadayada. It is not garbage, since you do not have chromatography equipment just waiting around in your room. Your best way to go is to use experience and determine if the raw you have is perfectly normal or it has degraded a bit.

But hey, I have stored it for longer than that, it was perfect.

OGH this was raw powder. Now it’s a brownish or amber colored solid. I’m sure if I heat it, it will melt and likely dissolve.
I was hoping someone here might know if it’s going worth brewing.

so you’ve brewed test e that went from a powder to gel-like solid?

just don’t want to waste my time

Normally if it gels up and it’s a low melting point powder anyways, it’s ok, just means it warmed up a little. Some stuff like EQ is like that at near room temp.

The change of color sounds strange because you say it was vacuum sealed. Even so, maybe the plastic is a little air permeable. Or maybe the material isn’t totally inert? I don’t know.

Anyways, test e tends to get some PIP after it degrades a little. If you do use it, do a really small test shot before doing a whole dose.

They mean in the vial, I think they misunderstood you meant raws. I’ve had brewed test e gel up in the vial, if that happens just warm up a little to dissolve. I’ve never seen a color change like you describe tho.

Personally for myself if it’s a reasonably small amount and I could get more without much trouble I would simply replace it .

@bornSkinny

The test E will goes to solid gel in room temperature. It is commonly seen. And, the production of Testo E is averagely 1 month one time or more frequently. So, the general production of your Testo E could be around 1 year ago. The shelflife with your stock condition could be around 2-3 years. So, in my opinion, you can go on to use it.

Two suggestions:
1. If not much stock with Testo E, try to get some new one. Money is no important than your healthy.
2. If you want to double sure, try to cook a little and inject it. If no hurt or other side effects, that helps to ensure you no problem.

No not garbage but may be hard to get accurate measurements as it would be very difficult to get it all out of the bag in that state. You can put it in the freezer for a few days and it will go solid again

It’s not super sticky in consistency. I’m going to brew it and see. No one seems to think that’s dangerous.

I’m guessing worse case it either causes PIP, which it didn’t before as I brewed some of same, or it lost potency. I’ll find out and update this thread down the road.

Same thing happened to me before. Brewed half when I got it (as a white powder) and the half I stored for a year turned into that brownish gel. Read somewhere that it just melted and was fine so I brewed it.

Ended up giving me debilitating PIP to the point where I couldn't barely move that part of my body. Spots where I pinned had a painful red lump for about a week. Threw the batch out and ordered fresh powder.
