What is YOUR personal brew method

How have you approached brewing? Time invested to brew?​

I'm looking to gather all the current practices. You can summarize them in a picture or just list a general outline. How long does it take you to make your batch?
  • Do you prepare one vial at a time, or do you produce your entire supply for the year?
  • How much have you spent on setup costs?
For me, I spent a bit over 250 dollars on everything I needed, including the raw materials. I had to find the best deals and get a proper hotplate, along with a good amount of filters. I planned for 10 years of brewing ahead of time and utilized AliExpress for most of my purchases. Here's my list of parts and general supplies:
  • 0.22 Micron PTFE Filters (50-pack): $36.58
  • 10-Pack Pre-Sterilized Vials: $6.55
  • Hotplate/Magnetic Stirrer: $42.10
  • Yieryi Electronic Scale (100g/50g/20g/10g): $15.39
  • Benzyl Alcohol USP Grade Solvent, 100 ml: $14.03
  • Benzyl Benzoate USP, 8 fl oz (237 ml): $11.83
  • Hexane Free Pure USP Grade Castor Oil, 16 oz: $14.69
  • Testosterone Cypionate Raw Powder, 100 grams: $90.00
  • Different Combination Laboratory Glass Beaker Borosilicate Measuring Glassware: $8.95
  • 20 ml Sterile Syringes, pack of 10: Approximately $10.00
  • 60 ml Sterile Syringes, pack of 5: Approximately $15.00
  • 23G 1.0 inch Dispensing Needles with Cap, 20 count: $3.99
  • 18G 1.0 inch Dispensing Needles with Cap, 20 count: $4.35
Feel free to share your own practices and costs! I'm really curious! For me I focused purely on budget costs! I really cared about money savings for this.
