+ 8 Heating to remove small crystals

ad

Recently saw a great deal out there for slightly crystallized gear, being the bargain hunter I am i decided to give it a try. It was very easy to heat here are some pointers.
1. use proper protection, gloves, glasses and long sleeves when dealing with high temperatures and pressure.
2. Blow dryers and hot tap water aren't enough, you need the temp to be about boiling water (212f)
3. Place a needle through, just enough to pierce. Do not insert all the way to the oil, it will get pumped out as the air expands.
4. Check vial, move it around and see if the crystals have been fully dissolved. It took me about 8 minutes from boiling started.
5. You can use the water afterwards for some green tea and boil some eggs.
6. This was just an experiment I didn't use it, but I was told to load it up hot, and wait till it cools in the needle.
Any input or critic is welcomed.
