Storing Raws For A Long Time

If one was to have a ridiculous amount of raws (a total of about 2-3 kilos of every compound) that could last him 10 years what would be the best way to store them for long term?
Would it be in sealed, airtight vacuum bags, stored in cool, dry and dark place or would it be better to convert into oils and store them in 250-500ml glass media bottles, protected from light and temperature? Both would be stored at approx 68 degrees Fahrenheit constantly.
Ive heard both, it depends who you talk to. Im sure they would lose a bit of potency after the 5 or 6 year mark but id like to minimize this.
Id appreciate some input before I set up a private lab. Unfortunately im not interested in the business either. Im just fine with my other, legal business.
Thanks.
 
Not a clue man but if it were me I would store them as far away from myself as humanly possible lol
 
Lol...trust me bro it's not easy. I definitely have a problem. I love the smell emanating from the container when I open it. I love the smell of raw hormones. I find myself constantly rotating compounds every time I brew some up. I have quite the arsenal.
 
ahahhaha, you are sick man!!!i also love the smell. Let's go to make a perfum, Eau d'hormone, ahahahhaha
 
I love brewing up my own gear. Especially when I know I have good raws. I strive for perfection. I prefer to use MCT as a carrier when possible just so I can have perfectly clear gear. Unfortunately only a few compounds will come out totally clear. My new favorite, nandolone cypionate is almost as dark as tren and had a super strong smell. A lot more then nandrolone deca.
I do prefer the smell of long ester tests though;).

funny and clever! and for the record i wouldn't be announcing this type of shit, just asking for trouble and unwanted scrutiny
 
As a chemist, I'd say that the *preferred* method of maintaining quality would be keep in the original, sealed packaging (which minimizes exposure to more oxygen). Store somewhere cool and you should be fine for a *very* long time. Most organics are stable for many many years. The problem with putting in solution is a) the heating (inherent heat damage is possible, and *heated* exposure to oxygen before it cools) and the possibility of slow interaction with the cosolvents/sterility maintaining compounds.

How are you liking that compound? I don't think I've ever see anyone talk about using that ester of nandrolone. How is the pip?
 
Now that's a serious amount of raws! I would be freaked out for drug factory charges or something if you had that much. Obviously you are already perfectly aware of the risks though. As far as storage, like you said though there seems to be an inevitable point of deterioration after a few years. I guess you could just account for this and make your gear a bit stronger in the future, or now if converting to oils. Does anyone know how much gear, raw or mixed, deteriorates percentage wise?
