Milky / cloudy film on top of brew

[1_whocares]

My best description is it is like dirt comes and forms a layer on top, it's paper thin and only in the center of the beaker, it doesn't go all the way to the edges.

I am now thinking it was something off with the raw test. I have brewed a couple other hormones and no film. Plus that specific batch of test was "off". Basically I live in the southwest and earlier in the year like spring time I left for the weekend and the AC was off. That batch turned into oil then stayed that way even when I got the room back down to reasonable temps. I just so happened to have a different batch of test e in my "kit." That batch at first did sort of melt but only half way so I thought the second batch was off. A few weeks later I was gone for the weekend and the power went off. That time the second batch melted completely into oil. But when it came back to AC temp it formed back into a big solid chunk of test e, like a chunk of cocaine right off the pressed brick. The while time the first batch was in oil form and stayed in oil form. At that point I ordered a digital controlled hot plate so I could test melting points. Obviously I don't know where the oil batch of test e melted at but the second batch that turned into a rock melted at the high end of the known range for test e.

I emailed the source and of course with it being basically a wharehouse middle man I got all sorts of responses like "melting temps are just theory.' When I pointed out that I had two batches from them and they were both behaving differently all I got was "we will ask the technician."

I am done with that oil batch of test e and I have not had anymore films form at the top of my brews so I will probably never know what was going on.

Good to be done with that batch, and probably to be done with that supplier. I will PM you with a more reliable on point supplier.
