Title: vial dried out... how much dH20?
Post by: rocknfreakinroll on November 22, 2011, 10:07 pm
Bought half vial a while back which has since dried out.  Wondering how much distilled water to put in to reconstitute it without bouncing off the planet.  standard sweet breath dropper.  thanks in advance!

One drop of water is a minum.
Twenty minums make a millilitre

so 2.5ml looks like right answer to me

I came up with the same answer, but with different math.

Vials of acid generally come in 5ml to 100 hits. his original was 50 hits, so 5ml/2= 2.5ml

a drop of water does not have a standard volume. The size of a drop depends on both the material and geometry of the opening that the water is coming out of. That said, drops formed from the same dropper will have a fairly consistent volume. For example, the volume of a drop of water from a 30 ga stainless steel needle will have a different volume than ones from a glass eye dropper, but drops made from either will be pretty consistent.

My suggestion is that you use the same type of container to figure out your dilution as you're going to use to actually dose with.

Yeah, the original container says 3.2ml of liquid and the manufacturer claims that is 160 drops of product.  However, I don't know the alcohol content of the original product, which would presumably affect the size of the drops.  I like the testing idea.  Thanks everyone!  My previous experiences with this drug came from small squares of paper bought individually from sketchy dudes in concert parking lots, so I appreciate everybody's input.
