I tried to exceed my 250g limit per lot and this is what I got. This is a 330g bar processed on a 4L reaction vessel.

Very nice looking gold. Even the flux on it is clean :D What was the source material? I'm guessing not e-scrap if you refined that much gold in a 4L vessel.
 
It looks really nice. Pop it in some warm dilute H2SO4 and get rid of that borax and it'll look even nicer. 8)

I did. It was hard to remove the purple flux. I ended up wiping it off multiple times with soap and sponge.

heat it for an extended time, after a good long while the borax will turn to a slime and the gold will be perfect (with no scuffs from a sponge :) )
