Baking Gear

[mv540]

I wont have my whatman filters to sterilize my grapeseed oil for another week so im gonna try and bake the prop because i heard it helps, just had a few questions

1) Do i doit everyday I inject or just once?

2) Bake on 220 degrees for 30 mins with a 18 gauge needle on the top right? if i dont have a 18 gauge would a 20 gauge suffice?

3) doit right before i inject or the night before or when?

and if anybody else has any other suggestions for reducing prop pain.

It's a one time deal but you can also easily hurt your gear. Why not just wait? What difference does a week or two make?

if you have ba in the prop and you used propper filtration techniques when making you wont need to bake

oil dosen't harbour bacteria very well

Wait, why are you baking your gear?
What is this prop of yours?

Yea 20G is fine for venting too. You should only need to do this once unless its settling out. Once its sterile, keep it that way. If you wanna do this everyday you will need to wait a while for it to cool. Almost sounded like you wanted to inject that 220degree oil in you after pulling it out lol DONT!!

dont bake your gear, if anything you should tyndalize it, where you boil it for a while, let it cool,repeat 3 days.
baking gear heats to quick once a certain threshold making it dangerous. Just wait for the whatman filters ull be fine.
what recipe did u use? powder or pellets?
if u used powder, then powder, ba/bb , oil is a painless recipe made it plenty of times with no problem nor pain!


Im making Test prop and NPP later this week super excited
