I can’t speak for every other “bozo” here“Syn and Genetec went downhill fast” any proof for that claim or are you just another ignorant meat head spouting off dog shit. I use several sources and Syn is one of my go to brands and I hear nothing but good things about Genetec. You are a complete fucking nobody trash talking brands that have been around for 10+ years…give your head a shake.
Do you bozos have any clue about raw production? Do you have any fucking clue how many APIs India produces for Fortune 500 pharmaceutical companies? The ignorance and incompetence of many members here is astounding.
But I think it goes without saying that the industry is adjusting in real time, and as an educated customer base, we have every right to approach changes to products with hesitation.
The reason I switched off syn after I heard this from the rep, wasn’t that I didn’t think the raws were of high enough quality, but rather I didn’t want to be the Guinea pig before I had seen reports/tests or read some anecdotal experiences with the new brew to give me back confidence.
Injecting these compounds from black market underground labs is already sketchy enough, it took me months to build the confidence to move forward with Syn in the first place, and to this day they have been the only UGL I have ever injected from, and have nothing but good things to say.
But this doesn’t mean I will blindly follow them off a cliff into a new recipe experiment.
The customer base is to educated these days, it’s not the old days anymore.
We will start purchasing from UGLs who provide us with the most transparency and testing, and the newer smaller labs treat us like valued customers, not whiney bitches like the older big labs.
So though I agree with your sentiment and have heard from other highly intelligent and experienced home brewers that India raws are just as or even better then china, but I will still approach with the same caution I did originally
If my favourite butcher started to buy his cows from a new farm, I would do the same thing before I bbq’d up a new strip loin!
