homebrew powder

The septa tops i've seen are pretty sturdy and can take a beating. You could probably autoclave it no problem and switch out silicone septas for the remainder of your brewing career. Glass media bottle (45mm) + septa top + a few silicone septas is a must if you brew a lot and completely unnecessary if you brew a little.
 
If your only gonna make 30ml or 50ml then a syringe filter is better. Just less hardware and cost involved.
If your gonna make 150ml+ stericup.

In your opinion does it make more sense to brew everything at once or brew what you need for the next few months and store the powder?
 
It kinda depends on how fast you go through gear. If you burn through a vial a week perhaps make 20 or even 50 vials.
If you go through avial in 6to 8 weeks maybe just make 50ml at a time. This way you never need ,ore than afew vials,chems and asyringe filter.
With large batches you need equipment and I'm sure le watches for people buying 100,s of vials and bulk ba,bb and eo etc.

As for storing, powder stays good for years and so do vials.

Next brew is prop. Wanting to go 150mg/ml 2% BA 20% BB. Is there anything I can do to make sure this is painless?
 
If i have a 250ml millipore....would i be able to make a batch of 250ml, or would i not be able to run all of it thru the filter? So would i want to make a batch of like 220ml or something like that?
 
Post injection pain with prop is usually due to irritation form the ester itself.
For some its not too bad, for some its brutal and similar to TNE.

If your one of those for whom the prop ester is particularly irritating there is not much you can do to reduce post injection pain.

150mg prop is most likely gonna hurt.
I never go over 100mg /ml with prop.

I just brewed some prop at 100mg/ml with 2/20 and i blasted 2ml of it and it was pretty painless. It was a little sore the next day but that's about it....Im not sure about the 150mg/ml though. Would be nice if it could be done though

Hmmm. Every prop I've tried at 100mg/ml I never got any PIP. Maybe I'm lucky. So I guess 100mg/ml it is.

It'll be close to the top but there is room there. :winkfinger:

It will make a batch of 250ml.
Dont forget to flush the filter.
 
If it's a 250ml I'd probably save about 20ml. I believe you you take this out of your total oil calculation right?

Say you had 100ml of oil to add in to your mixture and you wanted to flush with 20. You would only put 80ml in the mixture then filter it. Then put the extra 20 in there and push it through? Is this correct?
 
I always thought you used additional oil to take the place of the mixture left in the filter
 
I watch how much oil goes into my filter before I see it entering the vial if it's 3ml then I flush with 3ml that just me though, seems to work for my use
 
Right. But the oil you flush with is extra right....not part of the original batch.
 
That's correct it's extra...if the conversion calls for 28.5 cc then that's what I use, if 3cc gets stuck in the filter then I push 3 more but it keeps my total at the 28.5. The 3 extra just pushes the 3 that's stuck in the filter out
 
So if the recipe calls for 100ml of oil then you would run 100ml thru the filter and then add in the extra 5ml. So after you are done you would end up using 105ml of oil....correct?
 
I personally don't deal with flushing filters with oil etc.

If you want 100ml, make 105-110ml knowing there's a loss in the process.
 
That's like sacrificing 10ml gear for no reason.

But how do we know that the extra 10ml of just oil displaces the 10ml of gear in the filter and we don't dilute our mixture? :hmmm:

I never flushed it, I just let it sit with vacuum on it and that seemed to work out.

In the basskiller links, they remove the oil from the initial measurement. It calls for 30ml but they run 28 through then the extra 2 comes in later to flush. I think that's the right way to do it so you don't dilute the gear. It makes sense if you think about it.
 
If you assume 3ml will be trapped in the filter and you started with 30ml total.
You filter 27ml through and 3ml is trapped in the filter then you now have 24ml in the vial.
If you then flush with 3ml you will have 27ml in the vial.
Not 30.

I agree but again, how do you just add an extra amount of plain oil to the filter and expect it to displace your actual gear and not dilute the final mixture?

This is an interesting subject.
 
That initial amount of gear is "stuck" in the filter. That added amount pushes the trapped amount out

Ultimatley I suppose there is no way to be 100% certain.
We hope the filter will act like a hose for example...ifyou run water through a hose which is already full of water the water in front will go through before the water in back will.
This being the case we assume the oil in gear which is in front will go through first.
Either way I would rather have a 3% dilution than lose 3ml total.
And 3% dilution would mean no gear at all was flushed through.
Since I'm relatively certain at least some will go through if not all we are talking about a pretty small %...like perhaps 1% dilution.
