Reconstitute gear

[Th3manmurph]

Ok so set the oven on lowest temp for like 15 mins place vials on a cookie sheet
But do u guys remove the rubber top of the vial so it doesn't melt or just put like a syringe tip in the top so the air can escape

Heat up water in a mug in a microwave for 2 mins. Just enough to cover the vial half way.

Take the mug out it microwave and put the vial in the water. Make sure it is not submerged.

Let it sit for 30-60 secs and the take the vial out and shake it. Repeat until not crashed.

Is your gear crashed? Don’t put it in the oven bro. Put it in some hot water not the oven.

I just put it in hot water, get a cup of hot water and drop it in for a few mins, don’t put it in the oven

I put a pan of water on the stove on low with the vial till it dissolves again while agitating it.

Listen to this advice OP. No oven…. It’s not needed and far too sketchy. Follow RDM… you should be fine.

OP was it gear from someone on this website? You don’t need to say who… just asking

Yes this. But make sure to stick a syringe needle in the stopper to allow it to vent

Not necessary if you're just putting the vial in a hot mug of water. The water is not going to be hot enough to create enough pressure to burst the vial. If you were doing it on a stove top or in the oven as OP was thinking I would think you would want to vent it but I've never done it that way so can't say for certain.

You can reheat it on a coffee pot. Turn coffee machine on, remove pot. If it’s crashed, should melt the crystals.

No guarantee it won’t crash again tho.

The one time I did this the oil started pushing out of the vial through the needle.

What did you set the oven to?

Boiled water on stove top, then poured water into an 1 cup aluminum measuring cup. Guess the needle trick is to release trapped pressure from inside the vial, well the oil came with that pressure as well. Made a mess.

Yeah sounds like you had it really hot. I just microwave about a half inch of water in a bowl for about a minute and then stick my vented vial in the bowl.

I haven’t had to do this for crashed gear in many years but some labs brew DHB that needs to be heated to avoid PIP in my experience.

Funny thing is, the gear stayed crashed lol
