You guys kinda touched on this on a thread below titled heating Fina. I WARM the Fina before I filter it, but what I was wondering about was the actual baking at the end @ 160 for a 1/2 hour to "sterilize". I am not concerned about heating the Fina to a "coffee temp". My question is with the BA in the solution, why would one have to "sterilize" it by baking? Wouldn't the BA take care of anything? I started thinking about this when someone started talking about Mexican gear being "DIRTY". I mean what could it have in it that the BA would not take care of. I mean what is in a vial of steroids? The steroid powder, oil, and the BA - right? I mean I hear people say "that stuff gave me an abcess" or infection or "it swole my ass up" or whatever. I tend to think that it more likely could have been unsanitary injection procedures. I mean I know human grade is better, and Mexican gear can be underdosed, underfilled, and have a high BA content. But does it really possibly contain anything that would give a person an infection? Just to be clear, I am not talking about baking gear to "possibly" lower the BA content.
