Are the steps outlined specific to homebrews? Maybe my risk tolerance is high after a year of taking UGL gear raw with no adverse events but the first spike seems unnecessary.

No adverse events? I doubt you'd sense the incremental progress of, for instance, joint damage from reactive arthritis, or your organs being slowly degraded by microembolisms from injecting a steady supply of particulate contamination.
You mean "I haven't lost an ass cheek so everything's fine".
What do you think happens to the glass, rubber, and metal sub-visible particles you're injecting? They politely make their way to your digestive system for excretion? Or perhaps we evolved to develop "glass dissolving enzymes" that break those shards down and render them harmless?

I always wondered what a microbe on Tren looked like…

It's not correct, vendor make blend brewing things together, that's a lot different than brewing separately and than mixing it together
It's not that much different.
Yes. No big difference from mixing them in the same syringe.
To be clear, I'm not discounting the risk entirely and interested in harm reduction. Just genuinely curious what the reasoning is for using two vial spikes as described by @PayPig99 if the oil makes it through a syringe filter at .22um from the first vial without issue. Is that unlikely? Totally on board with using a filtered spike on the vial you intend to administer from. I'm clumsy as fuck so I'd like to stick with 10ml vials and the mini spikes add up quickly...

The filtered vial spike serves two functions. One is the deal with the particulates from the new vial (or even existing vial if reused), second is to prevent the development of rubber coring particles from repeatedly penetrating the rubber stopper with the needle (this has the added benefit of not requiring a separate drawing needle, or keeping the needle sharp, if using one for both).
However, I recently came across a source of inexpensive vials that are certified particulate free by USP standards.
With these, it would be better to use a spike without a liquid filter.

Not to belabor the point but I seem to be missing something. If I have no issues pushing oil from the source vial through the syringe filter, am I good to skip the first spike?The filtered vial spike serves two functions.

There is no reason, I missed that.
Of course..the first spike in that step has no reason to exist
They are certified particulate free before using it, after I doubt it will be particulate free as coring can happen. So the liquid filter should still be used isn't it?

Thanks...was starting to feel a little slow lol. For clarity, is the purpose of the syringe filter to ensure sterility?
Yeah I'd want to filter directly before administration regardless. Seems kind of pointless to go through all this and still have non-zero risk. And we're not exactly in the best regulatory climate atm.
Chat gpt for mixing steroids in a large vial:
Yes, the mixture that you prepare will be homogeneous provided that you mix the different steroids (Testo, Primo, Deca) well before injection, to guarantee uniform distribution of the active ingredients in the solution. Oils like those used for these steroids are generally well soluble with each other, but regular stirring or squeezing is recommended, especially if the mixture is stored for any length of time.
Make sure the oils do not separate over time. If this happens, you can warm the solution slightly (around 37-40°C) and shake gently before using. This helps ensure that the concentration of each steroid remains constant with each injection.

It's blunt needle, it will probably destroy the stopper every time you use it. It's not for drawing from a vial but from ampoules.J'ai encore un doute, dès que j'aurai fini ce flacon de 20 ml je passerai à l'aiguille filtrante de 5 microns
boite de 100 aiguilles 5 microns 0,38€
