Its brew time!!

Maybe help me with the caulking. I blew out a whatman today. Now i have about 60ml that needs to be refiltered. Maybe I'm just rushing?

I don't have a hot plate, but i used my wifes electric griddle, which is just a big ass hot plate.
Take your time with the caulking gun there is no need to rush. The way i know when to squeeze a little more is when the drizzle slows down. Also make sure the oil is nice and warm so it can pass through easily. Takes me about 5 minutes to fill 50ml.
 
Here are some extra pics of the prop i brewed last night. As discussed earlier the water is unnecessary and shouldn't be used at all. While normal beakers could stand the direct heat of a hot plate i would definitely use boroscilicate beakers because they are made to be heated. Last thing you want is your gear all over the hot plate evaporating into thin air.

You exclusively use mct @colossus25 ?

Any experience with other carriers?
Actually this is my first time with MCT and i love it. Its so smooth and thin and holds short esters perfectly so far. I used very little BB for the prop and it is holding just fine. Not to mention that the pip is almost unnoticeable. I used GSO and SFO before. I use an 18 gauge for both filter and venting. Usually i use a 22 gauge to vent but didn't have any.
 
Oh ya. Sounds like thats what I ment huh? No. My gf told her mom out of conversation one day. Her mom's got these really nice fake boobs. Holy shit! She wears those school teacher glasses also and has a heavy accent.
Sounds like you want hit mama dukes lol
 
I find that gear that can't dissolve with just the solvent at room temperature are likely to crash after brewing if left to sit for a while

honestly any gear should go into solution within normal concentrations at room temp heat..get a magnetic stirrer. honestly you dont need heat.
 
Test prop is too painful for me. maybe some people can handle it better than others. I use test pp since it's fast acting like prop but without the pain.

Never ran it before but the recipe i used for prop this time made it very mild actually. Only very slight pip but i actually enjoy it, reminds me its there. I believe the key to prop and pip is to use as little solvent as possible.
