It's still available online (200 proof), but it's pricy.

It's not that I'm scared I'll blow myself up. I'm scared my wife will use it to set fire to me if I try that in the house : )Ive made damn near 100% ethanol on my stove top with bread yeast and corn syrup with a tea kettle and some copper tubing.yeah,I know, its a little more involved than that, but its not rocket science either, its second oldest profession I hear. If you already have a distillation setup it should be easy peasy.
use a mineral oil bath to heat your hundred proof to 180 degrees. no open flames. run it through your distillation set up until your satisfied with your product.
use small amounts if your scared you'll blow yourself up. You want to have some real fun, try a good nitration.
just skimmed this thread and the washing seems pretty simple. Ive used coffee filters for syno and revalor but they clogged easily and were a bitch to work with. Anyone find a better filter set up?
Also, I havent looked much, just a few searches, but would this product work?

Don't think we have proven anything yet. We don't know if the losses are impurities or hormone yet. I have been meaning to recrystallize the recovered raws from a previous recrystallization to see if the same amount is lost. I just don't have enough raws to play with ATM.I think a two stage crystallization is proven to work best. First use your ideal dissolving solvent, ether and others work well..they all have there advantages and disadvantages. Dissolve your product in that solvent . Warm. Filter and evaporate slowly onto your surface of choice. Gather crystals , add to filter and wash with immiscible like water or ethanol wash . One good tip- always presoak your filters to minimize losses.
This will remove more than just washing with your polar solvent.
The problem is, we don't have access to this testing..if a bad batch comes out after testing throw it away.

I should have some more in a couple of weeks, but thanks for the offer. I'm keeping a minimal stock because Astro's thread still has me spooked.How much you need?
I will donate some Test Prop..
Maybe Nophat will too
