Homebrew wizards... If one were to make a rip blend;
test prop: 75mg/ml
Tren ace: 75mg/ml
Mast prop: 75mg/ml
In the dosage calculator would i plug in dosage as 225mg/per ml (total powder comes out as 225g) common sence tells me so, rather than
Calculating it singally as 75mg/ml x3 (powder comes out as 75g)

 

[test90]

Forgot to mention, i will be making 1000ml ( 1 Litre ) : for the powder calculator results- 225g powder

Yes, plug it in as 225 mg total to figure the needed amount of oil.

Cheers Bill. Also a sterilization question;
How is the best way to bake for sterilization.
I will also be filtering with .45 and then .22um filter.

The reasons for this is because i will receive the product mixed in container, and they have no way to keep anything 'sterile' and i dont want any infections trouble

Ok guys, this seems a good technique for sterilization, (correct me if theres a better way) especially in my case of me recieving my stuff mixed for me.
Warm up mixture in a sterile beaker in the pan as per usual, just for ease of filtering
I intend to get bottle top filter with .22um filter(sterile)
So fill up syrenge and put in you warmed gear in the bottle top.
When filtered, fill up your sealed sterile vials not forgetting to vent and practice sterile techniques throughout.
Next ..heat sterilization:
Preheat oven to 250-300 degrees, 3 times bake for 15-20 mins, let cool in between, to room temperature.
The vials full of gear dont need to be vented as theres already 2 holes from filling them up.
Let the gear settle for 24 hours.
Heres my mix i hope its made as i directed:
1) test prop
Grapeseed oil: 725ml
Powder: 100g
BA: 20ml (2%)
BB: 180ml (18%)
Total volume = 1000ml @ 100mg/ml

2) tren acetate
Grapeseed oil: 762.50
Powder: 50g
BA: 20ml (2%)
BB: 180ml (18%)
Total volume 1000ml @ 50mg/ml

Would the rubber vial seal melt at that temperature? Id leave the flip tops till later

 

[Bill Roberts]

I often use some warmth (usually 55 C, about 130 F, water bath) to aid dissolution but never use heat to sterilize. Clean handling practices in the first place and submicron filtration in the process of adding to clean vials suffices.

If you have GOT to use heat to "sterilize" (if there are bacterial spores, this actually cannot be achieved without ridiculous temperatures) then anything more than 77 C for only as much time as needed for the preparation to actually reach that temperature is useless excess.

Few if any pathogenic bacteria will survive a few minutes of even the 55 C. The higher 77 C figure is enough to kill pathogenic bacteria, and most kinds of bacteria in general (not extremophiles of course, but these aren't likely to be present and aren't known pathogens), in seconds.

A water bath -- e.g., a pot of water heated on the stove and allowed to cool until a thermometer indicates the correct temperature, and then if necessary low heat used briefly now and then to maintain that temperature -- is far more controllable and transfers heat much better than "baking."

Corrected! I was searching on t-nation earlier and it says the same basically, that "baking" if ever done is only in an autoclave.. By professionals anything less than this is useless. The best method is above as bill has kindly described.
Depending on which forum you search, guys can post whatever they like, its nice to have a site you can trust.

 

[bigrobbie]

Have you blended yet? Curious if it held...

 

[test90]

Il post pictures later.
Came out perfect ;
Tren @ 50mg/ml (cheaper)
T prop @ 100mg/ml
How long will it take me to use 1 litre of each though!! I feel like drinking it.
Getting a bottle top filter next week
