    grape seed too thick

    getting ready to make a new batch soon. problem with last batch is the gso was too thick for .2 micron. it took days! even with a caulking gun. so im getting rid of it and starting new... i was curious what a thinner oil would be? i used a organic grape seed before, just too thick to filter...

    any suggestions??? sesame seed oil maybe?

    Just keep the oil heated up and it will be thinner.

    heating it isn't good enough. I found an expeller pressed sesame seed oil that was super thin, much better than my thick gso that took me all night to filter. I went with sesame simply beacuase my pharmacy messed up my order and sent me sesame and it drew and pinned super smooth, so gave it a shot for my homebrew and it was amazing. You jsut obviously don't want the orange colored stuff people use for cooking that has the full flavor, mine is not quite clear but close.

    MCT oil is what I use and will always use. Medium chain triglycerides. You can buy 946mL bottles at your local health food store for like $14

    This is interesting about Safflower oil. Could have other positive effects.

    In dietary use, high–linoleic safflower oil has also been shown to increase adiponectin, a protein that helps regulate blood glucose levels and fatty-acid breakdown. [8]During a 16-week, double-blind controlled study conducted at The Ohio State University, researchers compared high-linoleic safflower oil (SAF) with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).[9][clarification needed] They studied post-menopausal women who had high blood sugar and wanted to lose weight. These participants showed an average reduction of 6.3 percent belly fat and an average of 20.3 percent increase in the important belly fat hormone, adiponectin.

    This ^^^^^

    Just made a batch of 100 / ml Test P 100/ ml NPP 100/ ml Tren A. Warm it was no issue to filter. After cooling for the second vial it was like pressing lard through a sponge. Warmed it up and no issues.
