  Is NileRed then too cautious when he only uses fresh breakers for stuff he is going to eat?

    The cost of a fresh beaker is worth mitigating the risk.

      That could be argued, but where does it stop? New stir bars? New thermometer probe every time?

    he’s lucky to have a big enough channel to be able to afford 40000$ NMR machines, so a couple beakers aren’t that much of an expense for much more safety

    but as a home chemist, there is NO WAY I’m getting new beakers every time I wanna do edible chem, especially pyrex branded ones like Nile does. Lab equipment, even basic glassware, is ridiculously overpriced
