Very first attempt at brewing..

[Hemi Guy]

Well this is my very first attempt at brewing Test-E.
I couldn't be happier with the results.
Absolutely no floaters, and super clear..I brewed it 250/ml.
I made a small batch considering this is was my first try it.
Just 40 ml total.

Congrats brother!

What equipment did you use?

 

[Dxt25]

Its such a cool experience going through the process! Looks good brother!

It was a great experience turning a pile of raw powder into a finished product.
I used a magnetic stirrer / hotplate until the liquid was clear and let the stirrer continue for maybe 15 minutes.
Filtered with a 22um syringe filter with the caulking gun method.
I used 20 ml pre sterilized vials , with a 18g vent and 18g filler needle, to fill the vial with the syringe filter.
I than switched out the rubber stopper to prevent any floaters before final capping.
I was somewhat nervous being my first brew , but so proud after all was said and done.
Saved a shit load of money as well , and learned so much during this process.
Can't wait for my next go at it , as I am feeling much more confident for my next attempt.
I also used BB at 18 and BA at 2 percent ratio.
Cannot wait until next time , with one brew under my belt. GSO was my carrier oil and will be used next time as well.
Thanks

The only problem you will have now is falling into the rabbit hole. I only brew for myself and between all the different esters of test I have, I could brew over 500 vials of testosterone if I wanted to. That doesn’t even count all the other crap I have.

Don’t dive into the rabbit hole head first like I did!

 

[Hemi Guy]

I could see it being real easy to take the plunge down the Rabbit hole.
Maybe another small order of Raws in the future..Lol

Welcome to the "I can run a ton of gear for pennies" club.

Don't run a ton of shit just because it's cheap though.

How do you switch out the rubber stopper of the pre-sterilized vial? I was thinking I needed crimping gear to replace tops...just started recently myself, still learning.

Looks awesome and congrats man.

I just realized you said that.

did you autoclave it?

 

[Hemi Guy]

I just soaked in Isopropanol alcohol.
I than switched out the stopper with gloves on.
Any better ideas, I am all ears..

unsure of why you would remove caps in general.

are you afraid of it not resealing?

If you NEED to switch stoppers, hydrogen peroxide bath for 30' and then low temp oven to dry it.

You don't want liquid of any kind in your actual brew.

I just thought it would be a good idea , since I was jamming 18 gauge needles into it. An it moving around, possibly ruining the original cap.
Thanks for chiming in.
I am definitely here to learn....

Use a 20 gauge on the sides of it. Get some IV extension.


If they are decent stoppers, it should be fine.

Yes but did you test the quality of your raw testosterone enanthate powder?rerember if you have low inpure bad quality raws then your product is no good regardless how good you filtered it mate,get your raws tested just to be on the safe side cos your product might only contain 30mg test e and theres contaminents and heavy metals ect mate,thats why i only use pharmaceutical grade anabolics
