I have not used EO yet I was asking to make sure I understood things properly before I make a mistake. As I understand it EO will make the solution green!
Traditionally with BA/BB and oil of your choice tren is usually a light yellow color if no heat is used. If you use any heat like to speed up the dissolving of the pellets or if you cook your tren at the end then it turns a golden color almost a dark yellow with a hint of orange more like a light bronze color then gold.
I need to look for some grape seed oil since everyone says it is a lot smoother...I used Safflower oil last time because it was cheap and locally available at the store. I hate to spend a premium for 50cc of oil when I can get a quart bottle at oil at Walmart for the same price etc.....
I do like the idea of added anti-oxidants and such!!! You can never get too many anti-oxidants!!!
Ultimately I would like to find an oil that is as thin as water.... Using an 18 gage needle to draw from the bottle really tears up the rubber stoppers.
As far as the color goes though I do not care it is going into my muscles and I am sure they will not care either!
Oh and on the cooking thing. I have done it a couple of different ways and even when I have cooked it in the oven at 275 for half and hour cooled in freezer then reheated and the product turned dark golden brown it still worked just fine. Like wise I have also done it in a pan of boiling water and also had good results going as long as 30 minutes. I did one large batch twice because half way throw the cycle it got super cloudy. I think my filter broke and let too much junk in...So I cooked it a second time and refiltered through another watman and again it worked just fine......
Personely anymore I chose not to heat my product as my technique has gotten better and better I do not find I need to. Since I have not made two batches up cooked one and left the other and sent out for testing I have no idea what the final effect is. Since the package insert says to keep away from heat and light I have to figure it is better if you can go with out the heating. I find that if I just use more BA and let my three step filtering process do it's job ie coffee filter, whatman .45 then whattman .2 I get a nice clean product that never clouds and is as potent as I could want and sterile as it should be. If ever I was going to use heat I would heat the oil in a coffee cup or Pyrex measuring cup in the oven before I used it so I could easily get away with just filtering the bulk of it through the Whattman.45 into the bottle and then only have to filter the solution that has the active AAS in it through the .2 filter. Luckily BA does not seem to bother me like it does some. I never feel more pain then a small mosquito bite unless I hit a vein. So I tend to run higher amounts of BA then most since it almost guarantee's that you will have a sterile product even if you goof and rupture a filter the first time you do it. I am sure we have all done that at least one ruptured a Whattman by pushing too hard and still used our cloudy finished product! I can not say enough about triple filter's using the coffee filter then useing the larger Whattman then the smaller whattman....I have not had a cloudy batch or anything in the way of trouble since I went to it. Filtering is fast and easy and I get a product that is sterile. Technically the .2 filtering process makes anything that come out the needles end sterilized. .45 does not. In the old days all kits came with Whattman.2 filters but they often cloged up fast so then they added the coffee filter as a pree filtering step. Often you would just go for the clear stuff staying away from what was at the bottom as you would have three layers a nice clear layer, a cloudy layer then the junk filler on the bottom. People did not like the idea of wasting all the stuff after the first clear layer. The second layer would clog the .2 whattman almost instantly and then if you pushed too hard rupture!!!!
Once places started to sell the raw parts of the kit they started to add the .45 filter to their sites. A lot of people went to them because filtering was easier and faster and they skipped the .2 filter. The problem though is that their are virus most especialy and some bacteria that can get past the .45 filter but .2 is considered sterile by the U.S.' Governments FDA governing body for vaccines and other injectable compounds. So to me it only makes sense to do .2 then you do not have to worry about cooking and such. The fact that I could push 60cc's through a .45 and .2 filter in is insanely fast. Back when I did it the old way with no coffee filter and no .45 filter often it took 2-3 hours of fighting with the .2 Whatman to get just the 20cc of solution through the whattman. I used to use USP oil so I did not have to worry about the bulk of the oil it went in to the bottle directly with out filtering. So if you take your time and tripple filter other then the over night wait for the coffee filter part it is so fast efficient and results in such a clean product I can not see any reason to skip any steps.
When you buy gear from UGL's youhave no idea how it was made.........I am picturing some guy sneezeing into the vat of product as he is pouring powder into the oil and solvent base!!!LOL Our some warehouse that does not even have a bath room or a sink to wash your hands etc........
