Vacuum pump question .

Thanks for the help .
I have read several threads that mention to secure syringe .
Is this a slow and painful process or as long as oil is warm it moves fairly quick?
Its slow depending on how much you are planing on filtering. If you are brewing over 100ml I would definetly go with a bottletop filter unit or buchner filter. The way I see it spend the money now or spend it later

Yes I do plan to . but I am going make roughly 100 ml of a few different things , test p, test C ( gonna attempt) , tren A , EQ, mast p.
And gonna let a few of my close friends as well as myself try it before I brew the larger oil . and so I can tweek the recipe or leave it .
But I do plan on using the standard protocol for each . so not gonna try and be super lab dude and make some shit that cripples me for a week or two . cause I pin quads and calf's most of the time
 
But regardless if I do caulk gun method first or not . I will be getting everything needed . I would rather get it all shipped and picked up and get most of it here . so I don't have to do it after I have a decent amount stored . if u understand what I am trying to say

Brotha go with zapcaps and a glass media bottle. Learn how to sterlize using cleaning solution, distilled water and extrem dry heat from a oven. You will thank me 1000x's later. Syringe filters suck! Bottle tops all the way and zapcaps are badass. Buy a 45 neck media bottle and brake bleeder gun for $45 at advance auto. Good starter kit

Don't forget your beakers too. Makes life way easier.

First off thank you for your advice . And I seen the oven method is the way a lot of members are doing it .
Is a autoclave the better way tho?

Oven and autoclave will both work the advantage to an autoclave is you can properly sterilize the stoppers.

I agree except I would go with a 3cfm vacuum pump off ebay for $50 rather than spend 25 or 30 for the hand brake bleeder
 
I have a 6 CTM pump already. Just concerned it's to much vacuum. But I am gonna use a vaccum tank and use a gauge and pressure relief valve to break the vacuum before going to filter hose . and put the Gauge between the valve and filter .

I'm a diesel mechanic and can fabricate shit the surprises myself at times. But this is on a different level. But very confident I can make something that works well. I just wish there was someone who has used a higher cfm pump. Cause these pumps arevisef to vacuum down A/c systems and I am going to buy just the yellow hose for my A/c gauges and cut one fitting off and the other end will screw on air tight
 
As long as you are regulating the pressure you should fine.
Yep that's what I think I'll do . lol that pump has made me a lot of money doing A/c on road tractors and I rebuilt it . And only been used twice since rebuild . And its not as loud as before and it pulls down vacuum very quick . But I bought A mobile snap-on recovery machine it came with a 8 cfm vacuum pump in it . so I only have to drag out one piece of equipment instead of 2 . And the Snap on recovery system is water and weather proof which the standard pumps as we use are not water proof . in fact I have had a pump pull vacuum and my high side gauge broke and it was really wet and humid and pulled enough moisture in the system I had it come back twice til I figured out it was the new dryer full with in a week .

But this is a whole different side of Meso. Where nearly every post is useful knowledge instead of a virtual beat down lol . but I love the dark side too. Lol

And what is so sexy abt the homebrew threads. Is that there are some very very good chef's that come here just to help . For example @daylight driller you have a life changing events about to take place in your life which I might add it takes a special heart to adopt no matter the situation . and I respect that my man as I am a single full time father of 3 wild ass kids 12,10,2 . so I want to prepare you . this ain't easy and as you can give me knowledge on a hobby . I can give you knowledge on raising kids lol.
But you Ppl don't have to help no one but you do . And I am very thankful . cause this info is gonna help me more than you would think . As we all have hurdles in life . And I just happen to be going through one and this is the only way I can continue to do AAS which I love . I dont mean to sound like my pussy is bleeding . I just can't express my appreciation enough . And I do plan on putting together a nice setup and will be a learning curve . but I will take pics and post them as I go . and I will start a new thread for that (if allowed probably need to read the homebrew forum rules) .
thank you all Meso/homebrew
 
Hey what is the shelf life for powders?
years. Probably 5 or more years.

As for vacuum gauges you can find a nice, industrial grade one, liquid filled and everything at amazon for $25 or less
I'm pretty sure you can weld it/bolt it to a small Tee tube piece that fits inside hoses, or find someone who does for the very modest price of two beers lol

As for required vacuum range for the gauge, I say 0 to 1 bar or less?
Any bottles used for vacuum filtration must be rated for vacuum use (at least 25” Hg,0.85 Bar, 12.28 psi) and free from scratches, chip and cracks.
