Syringe sucking up air w/ boiling h2O?
    #27000889 - 10/24/20 07:28 AM (3 years, 3 months ago)

So instead of steam sterilizing these new syringes that I got, I wanted to try sucking up boiling water into them multiple times. Problem that I'm having is that the syringe is sucking air in with the boiling water, though it only sucks in water and no air when I try sucking up room temperature water.
I'm just going to steam sterilize for now (and probably use diff syringes) but I was wondering if anyone understands why that's happening? Are these syringes unreliable?

You're sucking in steam and water.

Oh, okay, thank you. Is that okay or should I use a deeper pot? I had the needle almost fully immersed in the water.

Remove the needle from the syringe when you are sucking :wink:

Why would you do that. You want the needle sterilized too

Put the needle back on when you dump the water? I thought you should suck in and discard the water a few times, citing your caveman syringe tek

Put the needle on before you boil the water.

Yes you fill and squirt the boiling water out a few times
