Hey guys I was wondering if their should be any concerns on future orders, do to The freezing temperatures in my area? It being winter and all. I usually have everything before winter months and never had to worry about this before.
Would love to hear your thoughts and concerns with this topic!
Thanks!!

I agree with makwa. Cold temps are notorious for bringing some finished products out of solution. Some more than others though. It's a simple fix. Just heat the solution up until it reaches a temp high enough to dissolve whatever came out of solution. There's a few ways to do this. I've even heard of guys just nuking vials for 10 second intervals and giving the solution a swirl as it's getting warm.......not to sure how I feel about that one given the metal locking in the rubber.....point is, just use common sense. Don't explode your gear and don't boil that shit either. Good luck my friend.
I have saved many crashed vials by placing them in a frying pan on my stove and slowly heating it while periodically swirling it in the vial until it falls back into suspension. I know this isn't scientific, but I usually set the heat to the third of fourth notch out of ten.
Just remember:
Stick a needle (no syringe) into the rubber stooped to relieve pressure as the gear falls back into suspension. As the solids dissolve back into the oil, the oil will expand and push the air inside the bowl to the top causing a pressure build up. The needle will release this, just make sure that the tip of the needle isn't touching the oil or else you risk the oil flowing through the needle and out of the vial.
I've had to bring my oils into the lounge for the time being as they were becoming so thick in my bathroom, the suspensions were forming on the bottom also...
Good chance it could crash but no big deal.
