    Can you get syringe filters? put syringe filter on. draw drug into syringe remove filter and put on you sterile needle.

    Same here. the pieces of glass you can see would most likely not fit through the needle when you draw, and pieces of glass that would fit through the needle you probably wouldn't even see anyway.

    use the coffee filter as a hat.

    i am clutz and break amps frequently and get shards inside but still use it, never had a problem.

    I very much doubt you'de get any glass through a syringe/needle.

    I just put a towel over the amp and break it off, never got glass in it at all. If I did I was unaware.

    no source talk what so ever. no lab names even if they are not ugl.

    and no i would not use a coffee filter it is poris and it will soak up a lot of your oil. with all filters you will lose some oil due to the purging process. i would say not to worry about it. like said before glass that you can see will not fit through the needle.

    dude you're wasting perfectly good gear. a little glass in the amp wont hurt you. draw with a 20g or higher needle... you're fine. just be sure to sterilize teh amp first with alcohol sot eh shards dont contaminate.

    dude my test e amps always suck to open i just take the extra time with a amp opener and wrap a towel on the amp and use a towel on the top of the amp, and the glass wont get through, trust me if it takes forever to draw up that mollases test through a needle than you wont get glass in the needle

    Use the amp opener to indent the neck of the amp alittle and then hold both ends of the amp with a towel in your hand and snap the neck.

    they sell an amp opener that comes with a file. all u do is file around the whole top and it is much easier to break off.

    there not suppose to be used that way but we not using them to disinfect the brew but to prevent injection of glass so unless you feel like drawing then filtering into sterile container then redrawing to inject, us it in reverse

    BIC pen cap has worked for me. never had a problem opening amps. I grab the amp just below the neck where it breaks with towel and push bic pen cap away from you. Its as easy as that.

    You have to break it off, not crush it hehe. Try loosening your grip.
