to bake, or not to bake.... please read :)

[The Mighty Fez]

hey guys. I'm considering the prospect of investing in an "aramotherapy kit" and was wondering if it is necessary to bake the final product. what are the pros and cons of baking or not?

any and all tips/links on temp, length of exposure to heat, technique and whatever else is necessary to achieve the final product would be appreciated.

also, is there a way to see who you've given karma to? I gave someone karma when I first joined and the post was extremely detailed on how to bake tren. I remember he suggested baking it at a super low temp for several hours TWICE! I've been literally going through every thread for the past year trying to find that f'in post. please help.


thanks in advance for your responses


oh, it's going to be a 10g kit. is it possible to squeeze 200per/1ml out of it?



edit: happy halloween lol

I've never baked any gear I've made, be it tren or homebrew. I also don't use kits but that doesn't matter. The only time I heat is when I'm trying to make sure all the hormone is fully dissolved into the BA/oil before I filter it, or in the case of high concentration like 150mg/ml prop, I heat it if any hormone crashes out. No need to bake it, the BA should keep it sterile. And yes, you can get 200mg/ml out of tren, but it'd probably hurt like a bitch with a kit. Even making it on your own, I'd probably stay at 150mg/ml max for tren.

I have baked gear a couple times. I did this with all mexican gear.

Insert 18 guage pin into bottle top to vent baked out garbage

Bake at 250 15 minutes 3 times, let it cool for 15-30 minutes in between times.

That is the procedure I used.

However, once the 18ga needle left a hole in the top. The next time I did it I bought new vials before I baked, then I baked and pulled it out and put it through a .45 whatman into a new vial.

I go 275 for 15min 2 times....even on legit gear that's been sitting for a couple of months. Keeps my chance of infection down, and on my higher homebrew it helps melt the crystals that reform.

I bake all UG gear I buy, as well as homebrew.

 

[meatneck]

do you bake the ug gear just in case there's a chance of bacteria inside, so as to reduce the chances of infection? and at what temp and for how long? instructions plz?

 

[gregory]

I don't understand the notion behind baking it "3 times" or the do this "2 times" sounds like some old magic spell formula. just bake it at a temp high enough to kill bacteria and not damage the active ingredient. 250 for 30 min will be enough.

 

[Judo Tom]

250 is not high enough to kill bacteria.

if this is incorrect someone please let me know

 

[BigJoshRn]

do you bake in a water bath?

 

[newpump]

Bump for more info - I may come across some Enanthate soon - I'm thinking of baking it. I don't ever bake homebrew - just anal as hell creating it.

Boiling water is often recommended to sterilize and kill bacteria. Water boils at around 220 degrees farenheit.

 

[Judo Tom]

yeah i shouldve said all bacteria.. i guess 250 is better than nothing but some certain types of bacteria will survive..

 

[jbradley2093]

If I remember correcty, and I like to believe that I do, Animals procedure was 250 3x with 15-20 cooling in between. Just as I stated before. Any vets remember? I cannot find the old posts with the swamp ass goolge search (although I looked for a half an hour - Geez I should get some K love for all that work) but I am quite sure I am right.

the idea is the actual heating kills the bacteria so you do it a few times to kill everything.

hmmm.....what if there were any stray viruses? would baking help?

thanks for the responses so far.

is there a way to track who you've given karma to???? there has to be! that post was awesome. I would greatly appreciate it if I were able to view it again.........
