Second effort.
Test Prop 50ml @ 200mg/ml
10 gram Testosterone Propionate powder (8.5ml)
1mL BA (2%)
10mL BB (20%)
30.5mL EO/oil
(10ml EO, 18ml GSO. Then 2.5ml EO at the end to clear the last drops from the filter.)
Washed the beaker with soapy water to get rid of the oil from last batch. Rinsed it out well and dried it with a clean paper towel. Cooked the beaker in my oven set to 220C for 30 min. Let it cool down while I measured out my 10g of powder and got my shit all set up. Washed the table down then over again with ethyl alcohol. Same with hands, thermo and stirrer. Put the powder in the beaker, added the BA & BB then 10ml of EO plus 18ml of GSO, keeping the last 2.5ml to push through the filter at the last step.
Took the temperature up to around 65C, stirring constantly. It all dissolved fairly quickly with just a few white specks left. Kept slowly stirring until all the specks dissolved then stirred for 5 more minutes. Took off the heat and let it cool down to 50C while stirring. All good. A light honey colour.
Set up my holding vial with vent pin and 18g pin with .22 micron inline filter. Sucked up the cooling liquid into a 60ml syringe barrel. Ready to make my nails bleed.
Noticed that the volume in the barrel was about 0.5ml short of the full 50ml. So, I either drew too much BA, BB, EO and/or GSO or the .85 conversion factor for my powder is out, or a combination of them all.
I have ordered 20ml barrels to make measuring for 50ml batches a little more accurate. Better than sucking up multiple barrels with a 3ml.
With EO in the mix it filtered a lot faster and easier than straight GSO. Sucked in a ml of EO and pushed half of that through the filter. All done. Should be spot on, or close to, 50ml. Will see when i decant into 10ml vials.
I am letting it cool and settle today. Will decant tomorrow. It's a nice light honey colour. When I hold it up to the light I can see an oily pattern, as if you were mixing GSO with water. It seems to have a very faint cloudy layer from the top to about 1/3 down the bottom. But that is being pedantic. I guess the proof will be in the PIP when I shoot it, if it stays in solution overnight. It's about 17C outside so not a hot day.
If it crashes, I will just add 25ml of EO and Oil and see if that fixes it. That will take it to 150mg/ml. If that crashes, which I doubt, then I can just dilute it again back down to 100mg/ml. No penalty, no foul.
This is fun. Now to make my labels for the new batch.
