ok, I just got myself some optimum nutrition's pure creatine powder a week ago.Being my first experience with creatine mono i was expecting it to dissolve pretty easy,but it doesnt. I have tried mixing it in 3oz,8oz,16oz water it just stays suspended and settles at the bottom.Tasted like a mouthful of sand but noo big deal i figure,within next couple of days i had a upset stomach and was feeling gassy.. but i did gain some 2lb.?

after doing some reading I'm getting alot of conflicting reports,some websites say undissolved creatine at best is just shit out %80 and at worst it will give you diarrhea,while some people swear by just putting a spoonful of creatine in their mouth and washing it down.

"mix it in a liter of water",
"mix it in hot coffee",
"put it in boiling water",
"just put a spoonful in your mouth",
"take creatine shooters"
"cook it with your oatmeal".. ok i made that one up

I tried mixing it in hot water(just hot enough to stick my finger in) and the creatine dissolved completely(water becomes crystal clear),common sense tells me this is the right way to do it,but then most people just chug it undissolved.Am i destroying my creatine before i even drink it?

sorry about my long winded rant..
