Shelf life of injectable gear

[< <Samson> >]

Is there a somewhat average time frame that gear can sit for?

Also if it is sitting for a extended period of time should it be refrigerated or anything?

Just had a deal come up & I kinda wanna grab a bit(not a insane amount or anything).

Good question, my gues would be 16 months, stored correctly of course.

Any super pros wanna chime in?


I say a long time, but hell if I know.


Also can the shit crash after a long ass period of time?

They should be good for up to 3 - 4 years. But I wouldn't refrigerate them, they will crash (come out of the solution) in cold temps, keep them at room temp in a dark place. Another thing to consider if you're wanting to buy in bulk, is buying raw powders, they can be stored damn near forever in the fridge, until you're ready to brew as much as you need at one time. Just a thought.

I am too scurd of dealing in powder. Cooking it looks siple enough though.


Thank you super pro, I just need it to last maybe a year at most.

What are you scared of?

I have not come across a good source for powder, just all different liquids

Also does liquid lose potency after a extended period of time?

Yes, but the loss won't be so significant it will make much of a difference.

If properly made, it should be good for maybe a decade. Even then, you're just looking at a gradual decline in potency.

[The Bear 79]

Wow, that's awesome. What will keep it from going rancid over such a lengthy period?

[Bonaparte]

The Benzyl alcohol and sterility.
