Hey guys can y’all help me with an L-Carnitine recipe. I want to brew @500mg/ml. Just need a solid recipe to go off of. Also I know L-Carnitine is legal I’m assuming bulk supplements is a good place to source the raws??

Wrong forum.
Threads already exist about this; you did not look, for sure (even if you will now say the opposite).
A very quick search would have shown you where to post this question, where info is already present.

Here's a recipe using ba instead
100 ML @ 500mg/ml
59ml Distilled Water
50G L-carnitine base
1.5ml Benzoyl alcohol (1.5%)
Make sure dw is warm when mixing with the ba or it can be cloudy then use a .22um filter syringe preferably a whatman filter

you don't need a magnetic mixer. stirring it in a pot while heating is enough.
and a source? anything goes really, as long as it's l-carnitine tartrate.

Imo, anyone brewing should get a magnetic mixer. It's only 50-60 dollars.

No, you want to use base l-carnitine.
Using l-carnitine tartrate will sting pretty bad, my recipe posted was super smooth.
L-carnitine base can be found at bulk supplements

Oh fuck lol just checked, yeah I used the base too. Important in my case is to inject super slowly, this way it doesn't form a bump and absorbs immediately instead of staying in a lump for a couple days.

I used Carnitine Tartrate... didn't sting that bad at all (i've had worse). Went in smooth with no problems.

I use bulk supplements and I have to add some HCL to it to get the pH right. For me, once that pH is around 6-6.5, its perfect. No pip that people complain about. I brew about 600-700mg/ml.
I might go back to 500mg/ml because it just becomes too thick for a 27g needle any higher than that.

I just made a 100ml vial yesterday. Pretty straight forward recipe. 50g of l carnitine from bulk supplements, 70ml distilled water, 1.5ml benzyl alcohol. Add the powder very slowly into the water on the hot plate with the magnetic stirrer set semi quickly. Draw up, push through wheel filter into a vial and done. Took about 45 minutes from start to finish of setting up, bottling and putting everything back away. Comes out to 100ml at 500mg/ml

How's the PIP?

It's pretty typical for l carnitine, although admittedly my last run with l carnitine was from a horse medicine company and was in 100ml vials of 200mg/ml so I was injecting 2ml a day (I identify as a bovine)
It hurts like a motherfucker the first couple times going in but then once the muscle gets used to it it just stings a little going in and some very mild soreness for pip

If the PH value isnt that bad your tissue gets used to it extremely quickly, usually 1-2 injections are enough. Although muscles can be really painful with high volume

I have found the closer I am to the 6.5 pH, the less pip I have. I have a batch at 6.2 pH and brewed at around 700mg/ml. No pip. I kinda get that uncomfortable muscle expanding sensation but that goes away pretty quick.

That's interesting to know. Maybe the next batch I'll adjust the PH. I just bought a digital ph meter for a glutathione brew someone posted on here that I want to give a shot
PTFE filters are ok to filter aminos like carnitine right? What do you use to raise the PH baking soda?
niqTM

Nah. I haven't used PTFE. Those are hydrophobic (unless you can get them in hydrophillic) and don't work well for water-based solutions, in my opinion. I use PES hydrophillic filters for l-carnitine.
As for pH, l-carnitine is inherently base. So you have to acid it up. I use HCL to bring the pH down to around 6.5.
