<![CDATA[Autoclaving vials?]]>Has anyone tried autoclaving vials at home to re-sterilize them for reusing? How does that work, if it does?

I have some 3ml empty used vials sitting around and I want to see if I can reuse them. The metal crimp is in tact although the rubber top is exposed.

I think with metal crimp and rubber stopper steam won't get inside fully. Right?
