First time brewing - Test E

[bigforyouben]

I'm about to try my first homebrew, of Test E. I bought a small pack of raws from QSC last year, and their testing was from December 2023. I went to open up the pack and this is what it looked like:


Is it likely still safe to use?

My plan was:
* Volume: 100mL
* Concentration: 250mg/mL
* BA: 1.5%
* BB: 15%
* Carrier: USP grade MCT oil (60/40, Caprylic-C8/Capric-C10).

that looks off to me, oxidized. Id expect a high chance of bad PIP.

Try a smal batch and report back.

It's a high chance of bad pip either way with test e.
Give it a try if you want to exercise homebrew if not get other ester raws.

But this is how it looks when test e or deca raws melts. Nothing unusual. Became yellow, brownish like a soap. Have used deca raws that melted without issue

I’ve never brewed - so it’s not an expert opinion but that doesn’t look right!

Toss. Pip no matter what concentration you use. Hope you got it for the standard test e price

Don't toss it, check out what we've done purifying this stuff

Raising the Standard​

The purpose of this thread is to present a comprehensive, reproducible, lab-grade method for purifying steroid raws prior to conversion. This is not a replacement for quality manufacturing..
this is a corrective technique to deal with substandard materials when no other option is available.


We must be clear: this is not an excuse for manufacturers to cut corners. This is a stopgap solution that allows individual compounders and responsible middlemen to clean up contaminated or adulterated product until true GMP-level practices are...

It's no good... Looks like I'll have to take it off your hands and dispose of it (into my body).

I'm hearing a lot of that
