Not going to say the sources names but I have gear from 2 diff ones.

One of the sources gear does not crash been using it for years never crashes.

Another source I tried, his stuff seems to keep crashing.

Why?

Different formulas can go into making aas stable in solution. Maybe same chemicals, slightly different ratios, etc.

Pretty irrelevant in the grand scheme. Just heat it up in a candle warmer, pan, etc. and don't store it in a cold place. Even a cold closet can cause crashing.

Assuming the concentrations between the two vials are the same, it’s just the ratio of solvents used to get it to hold.

Cold temperatures also make it crash as well, like MMA mentioned

If the cold isn’t a factor, and you have two sources with test e 250mg/ml for example, and:
-source 1 is crashing
-source 2 isn’t crashing

It’s safe to say that source 2 probably has the better formula. Crashing doesn’t reduce the potency of the gear to my knowledge, it’s just inconvenient to have to heat it up

Good responses here OP.

Even pharmacy test can crash from time to time but I agree with @Sector in that the brewing formula for UGL source 2 that doesn't crash is likely better than the brewing formula from UGL source 1 that does crash.

Not too relevant too is a myth out there that if you put a vial of test in the freezer overnight and it doesn't crash, there is no hormone in the vial. That is complete dolt joke bro science BS.

Oh and god help anyone that sources from a UGL using guaiacol to brew test e 250 :eek:o_O:oops:

I get confused sometimes when I read posts on source threads here that are like

"I received my package from <source> and the vials were crashed, he offered to replace them immediately great customer service"

I know that some batches can crash because they are just not made properly but I am confused as to why some sources will replace an order for crashed testosterone especially when shipped in a cold climate.

Just like anywhere, people will bitch and complain irrationally until they get their way. Karma keeps track though. 👍

What about same batch #s and same packaging. Some vials crashed while others remain liquid.

If that actually happened, it's a horrible business model. The source is an idiot. Besides throwing away money, it's missed opportunity to educate the customer (although hopefully other members did).

I recently started keeping the ones im currently drawing from in a wipe warmer I got off Amazon for $20. However I’m not sure if it’s bad for the oil to be kept at that temp ( says one lvl 1 it’s 88 degrees) which is where I keep it. I’ll check with a thermometer this weekend to see actual temp.

I have also used the hot water & candle warmer trick, but my thought was the wipe warmer is for ease of use, I can just grab what need & its ready to go. I only started using this method because my pre filled syringes I make for 2-3 days in advance we’re getting crystal’s inside them with the weather being in the single digits. Not sure if I will continue the wipe warmer method although it is very convenient, I’m just worried that it’s going to damage the oils. Unless someone else here chimes in that has been using this method long term?

Cold weather?
Yes it was caused by the cold weather during shipping. I was just wondering why some crash and others don't if they're part of the same batch. After warming up, the same vials recrashed.

Some have mentioned baking the vials at 175F for like an hour to provide a more permanent cure. Apparently that's not hot enough to harm the stopper and it should stay in solution after that.

It’s interesting because even the Pfizer testosterone packaging mentions that it’s normal for the testosterone to crash
