Nice job JP, ts MH from Evo...
1st Prop is a bit hard to brew. Yep no surprise there.
You need to use BB and it gets tricky going over 100mg/ml. It also has the fame of causing PIP, most people attribute it to the propanoic acid.
The acetate ester is most commonly associated with Tren. It is easy brew, holds with pure BA and is usually considered painless.
Now you have JP up there who can tell you for real, was it hard to brew? was there PIP? EXCELLENT QUESTION but with a BA concentration of 5% it would be unavoidable. (oh the LogD of T-a and T-p are almost IDENTICAL)
I might run another give away on Test Decanoate for the long ester fans, just to get people to try something they might not have considered.

That all sounds great but when an ester is added to a finished pharmacologic organic product it is added as a BASE rather than it's parent ACID.
So for example try to purchase Testosterone propionic ACID you can't
WHY?
Because essentially all AAS are sold in the ester forms such as: Testosterone PROPIONATE!
WHY? Acids are tissue toxic even organic acids with relatively neutral Pka's
Shit what does that mean? Well if anything AAS are being sold as a RELATIVE base which buffers the effects of acids. So the are NOT AT ALL "acidic", got it!
if you really want to know what is happening to cause PIP, (IMO) look a the differing AAS logD at a PHYSIOLOGIC Ph of 7.4.
I will try to explain so please bear with me!
A higher LogD means the more lipophillic (oil loving) a substance is and the EASIER it will dissolve in OILS! So for example the Ld of T-c is around 8 yet the Ld of T-p is around a NEGATIVE TWO! (The logD also accounts for the differing half lives of AAS)
SO what does that mean? Well the PROPIONATE ESTER does NOT dissolve in oils as well as CYPIONATE (now you KNOW why a concentration above 100mg/ml is quite difficult to achieve).
Well many "chemists" "solve this problem" by adding more of the NEEDED preservative BENZYL ALCOHOL. And it works fine because BA :"neutralizes" the effect of a NEGATIVE logD by raising it to approximately ONE.
Groovy doc (lol) all's well that ends well right. Nope the problem is BA is TISSUE TOXIC at concentrations exceeding roughly 3%, and now you know the rest of the story.
Proving a lot of BRO LORE AKA "SCIENCE" is BULLSHIT, Now where do you believe Contagion obtains most of his knowledge from, traditional textbooks or forums, lol!.
IF anyone has a better explaination I'd LOVE to hear it,
as long as it's not Contagion Snake oil herbal supplement BULLSHIT!
