I'm making this post to see how many people share the same experience as me.
Earlier I posted about nootropic depots new phenibut being milled differently and apparently from a different supplier. Ever since they changed their phenibut it hit differently, I would still feel it but not as euphoric as it once was. So I was having thoughts like damn has my tolerance went up? Do I need a break? Do I need to take more due to the old batches being powder and this stuff being almost like salt? Or did I lose the complete phenibut magic like it once was?
So i said screw it im gonna look around else where and came across liftmode. I noticed liftmode sells their phenibut hcl in all varieties from powder to large crystals, so i said screw it im gonna try ordering their powdered form. I got it in the mail and at first was pleased that they give you a batch sheet listing the potency of it and all that jazz even came with a scooper but i"ll never use it. So I tried it last weekend and kinda sorta felt it the first night i kinda messed up my eating schedule along with taking it so that may be why, but i woke up the next day with a huge afterlife that lasted till like 5pm, the second time i trie…

I can confirm , MYASD is 100% correct. There is no chance his company Nootropics Depot is selling impure Phenibut. They have millions of dollars of advanced analytical equipment to fully verify the purity of their products, a philosophy of uncompromising quality standards, and an insanely talented team who can characterize all manner of ingredients down to fingerprinting trace impurities.
We likewise carry out careful purity testing on every batch of our ingredients, and won't sell impure Phenibut. We get our ingredients tested by independent 3rd party US based analytical labs, and for our supply we work directly with a dedicated partner factory that we've visited and assessed in person, which has allowed us to keep our batches of Phenibut uniform.
The only meaningful differences between commercially available batches of Phenibut HCL raw material from the couple of factories producing it are in terms of texture. Texture matters only in terms of personal preference, handling and storage properties, and density.
Density can affect how Phenibut much fits in a given volume (such as a scoop) - if measuring by scoop, the mg quantity can change a lot.
Texture maybe can also impact subjective experience the same way that the color of a consumable can impact subjective taste.
Bottom line - I'd love to claim our Phenibut is special, but in reality there is no way (in term…

Thanks for backing us up. I know you guys have to get frustrated by the opposite posts that pop up about yours at times. You have to with how many times it has come up over the years.
We work with a dedicated partner as well, but sometimes demand requires we act quickly to get more in from an alternate. I would rather have the density vary a bit than to go out of stock because of a spike in demand we could not predict. I was almost certain it was going to have permanent supply issues earlier this year, so we tried to get as much as we could. I do appreciate that you offer different particle sizes as a choice, though. We have a new piece of equipment in the lab to empirically measure particle sizes down to the 5 micron range. However, that is more for things that I want to be micronized, like palmitoylethanolamide. I thought about doing it for phenibut, but it's just so water soluble. The different phenibut particle size choice is kind of your guy's thing, too. So we just keep it simple. We are already hurting for capacity as it is, and are finding it very hard to hire qualified production techs. So adding in a complication to the production process doesn't seem prudent at the moment.
