I put almost all of my test e into oil also. Didn’t want it going bad, considering raws are a commodity these days!

It would have been better to keep it as raw I believe at least for any other raw it's better.

I was doing a bunch of reading on here and people were saying that the raws going bad is what caused the pip. I don’t remember if anyone gave a reason for what caused the raws to go bad. You are probably right though, if stored properly, it shouldn’t be an issue. I have one little chunk left so I’ll hold onto it (stored properly) and test it in a few years.

There is so much speculation around this topic, I just figured I would use the test e first and if it starts giving me pip I’ll toss it. I know everything else will last.

You made the correct choice, I'm not sure tho if it goes bad even if it has been brewed and it's in oil or only when it's in raw form it goes bad.
Some test E raw are bad straight away as well, it's really hit and miss, for the future just go test C or test D.
I wish we could use test E because test E 400 is PIPless and an awesome concentration but... As we all know that fucking carbolic acid it's a pain in the ass

I can't decide the best bottle top filter. Is PTFE or nylon enough? What would be the preferred to transfer from media bottles to uncapped vials if the environment is Inclosed? Pipettes?

Done use the syringe filters. Wanna upgrade to something more efficient and faster and allows large quantities. They work but are hell sometimes. Maybe if I pre filter the gear a bit it might be better. Something like a 1 micron filter then 45 then 0.22? But I dont think filters like these will do me anymore.

Dropping by to say I used the recipe in this thread to make my first batch of oils which was test c 250mg. Much appreciated and I'm happy to have this source of information here.

Do you typically send your oils out to get tested and make sure the mg is correct?

The First few times I brewed yeah. Not anymore..I trust I can read and copy numbers from a screen when I have the calculator do the math

Anyone have a recipe for pipless test e? How high concentration can you go with it? 300?

Just because something doesn’t give pain to one person doesn’t mean it won’t for you. I don’t understand the obsession with “pip” by so many people. Find what works for you or just fucking deal with it.

Twenty mg per ml should be pain free and smooth sailing.

My younger brother uses test e for years and years, and he says pip is for pussies,, lol ,, And He only uses test e over cypionate , dunno why , but ymmv

Hey i enjoyed hearing your interview with type-iix.

I definitely see your point. My bad. I'll rephrase it. Could someone please share with me a recipe for test e at 300mg/ml that won't crash using just ba/bb in MCT?
Thank you

I made some a few times with 1/20 in mct oil. It hasn’t given me any problems.

I use C8 mct oil not sure if that hurts or helps. I picked it early on because it was more expensive but it treats me well so I keep buying it.

Sorry, that was ready to boil over for a while lol.

Yeah to LGOP528’s point, Test E holds pretty well with minimal solvents. Should be fine with what he suggested.

Thanks. I've got a c8/c10 mix I was going to use. Did you ever try the c8/c10 mix or have you always used only c8? I see at least on Amazon it's about double the price

Oh I understand. Test e has been hit or miss for me on pip depending on UGL. Ive got raws now so hopefully I can make it pretty smooth and they aren't too contaminated with the delta 6 impurity

I have not but i do not remember it being that big of a difference. Here is what I use.

Buy Filtered C8 Clean MCT (Medium Chain Triglyceride) Oil -Carrier Oils

C8 MCT Oil containing high levels of medium chain triglycerides, C8 Caprylic Acid

www.medical-and-lab-supplies.com

Both of them are out of stock right now. It isn’t showing the price for the mix but C8 is 1 Liter for 35 bucks.

Just to be clear, I am not saying it is necessary, I’m just saying that is my recipe.

what does using the caprylic acid in the mix do ?

MCT is a mixture of caprylic acid xD any MCT has caprylic acid in it
