IDIOT! - Quick brewing question - HELP

[newbrew]

I know, wrong forum, but I need some quick advice.

Man, I feel like an idiot for not seeing this beforehand....

I am brewing up 5 g's of Test E.

Anyways, I used a slin pin to draw the BA then injected it into the test powder and oil. I didn’t notice until after I already put the BA into the mixture that there was black stuff inside the BA bottle. What is this black stuff you may ask? Well, putting the slin pin inside the bottle to draw up the solution was obviously a very dumb (and tired) move. In doing so the BA stripped the black ink off the bottom portion of the slin pin.

My question is...will this compromise the sterility of my product? I have not yet filtered it or anything. Also, there appears to be absolutely no black inside my solution. Shouldn’t the filter and BA take care of any possible contamination?

I am somewhat reliant on this batch as tomorrow is my next shot and w/o it I will have to end my cycle early.

Any thoughts?

after you filter and bake you should be fine.

thanks.

Some people in the lab forum are suggesting that baking it is worthless due to the fact that nothing is sterile to begin with. Also that baking can harm the hormone. Do you agree with this?

I wasnt actually planning on baking as my oven recently went on the fritz. I was however planning on heating it up in some boiling water to get things mixed up a bit.

you would need to heat the mix to a very high temp for a long period of time to hurt the hormone. the ba it self will steralize the gear, filtering will be a double up on that. I know that baking is not needed, but I do it anyway.
it wont hurt so why not do it. heat a pot of water till it almost boils, put a pin in the vial and drop it in. 45min later take it out and enjoy. good luck bro

One more thing. The powder is easily visible in the oil and BA, even after shaking. I assume this is normal until after I filter? I assume filtering is going to remove a lot of this left over powder?

The powder has mixed a little, but much of it just ends up resting at the bottom after i shake the solution.

Have you added BB yet? That will help some....also, slightly warming the oil/hormone will help...I wouldn't filter until the enan is unclumped and is evenly distributed throughout the carrier......

No BB for this batch, maybe next time.

Well, I am done. I used one of them conversion kits and ended up not using 1 of the watman filters (I used the .2) and didnt need the coffee filter (not sure what they are supposed to be used for?)

Anyways, here is the finished product: This SHOULD be 20ml. This is a 50ml bottle.

Looks a little cloudy to me. I would filter it one more time. Also, I always mix the hormone, BA and BB together before I add the oil.
