New Member, first cycle advice and help in transferring to sterile vial

[Finalforce]

Well you obviously have never homebrewed, since this is standard procedure. You are only moving the needle from one sterile environment to the other several times back to back. And if the packets aren't sterile, then neither is the gear, so it makes no difference. Oh, and this is why I suggested that he autoclave the oil once its in the vials, since I don't trust his aseptic transferring skills, nor his sketchy gear (I don't know of any manufacturer who uses that type of packaging that I would trust).

I understand what you are saying, this is my first pin cycle so im alittle paranoid and just wanna get exact answers. I think I will stick to what you said and just use a 21 gauge for the entire process and possibly swap out needles to be more cautious. When I bake it how long should I allow the vial to sit before I rebake i for the next time. Also the proper temperature is 250 correct? Lastly since I am baking it is using a filter necessary or can filtering be used instead of baking.

I NEVER said to bake it. I said autoclave (pressure cook) which is much safer, since you can't exceed 252 F. Ovens are unreliable.
Ideally, you should draw up all the packets (of the same type) into a 60ml syringe, then use a caulk gun to filter the oil into the vial with a .22um syringe filter. If you do this, you could just let it sit for a week so that the BA kills anything that makes it through without worrying about heat-sterilizing.
