Berp Bio Oils are one of our favorites here at ACB, the heavier No. 3 oil is our go-to oil for most of the vintage horns at the shop. Sold as single 1oz bottles (or pickup a refill bottle of 8oz!)
A New and Improved Formulation
BerpBioOil presents a new formulation offered in three viscosities: light (1), medium (2), and heavy (3); 1 oz. bottles. This new oil has been developed by the makers of the Berp together with the scientists of Novvi and is made in the USA from sustainably grown sugarcane. Novvi’s mission statement “we grow revolutionary oils and lubricants that protect equipment and our community” fits Berp and Co.’s. commitment to locally produced sustainable products.
- Non-toxic
- Petroleum-free
- Plant Based (Biobased)
- Contains essential oil that cleans as it lubricates
- No adverse effect (no calcium build-up) on your valves whether they are nickel-plated, monel-plated, or raw brass .
- Available in the widest range of viscosities on the market*
Which viscosity will work for you?
Newer instruments generally have tighter clearances and require lighter viscosities. However, lighter viscosities evaporate more quickly (especially in petroleum-based oil). Your choice for the greatest value should be the heaviest weight that allows the valves to move rapidly and consistently for the longest period of time. Speed and endurance.
We will be happy to advise you as to which of our weights is closest to what you are now using, as Novvi scientists have made a comparative analysis of the popular brands. If you have been using our BerpBioOil regular, the new formulation for our #3 oil is exactly the same viscosity. If you have been using the “lite” version of our original oil, its viscosity is 4.2, which is heavier than our #2 and #1 oil.
Tips to get the most from BerpBioOil
BerpBioOil works best if you clean your valves before the initial application, though it is not absolutely necessary.
What does “biobased” mean and what are the benefits?
Biobased products as defined by the U.S.Secretary of Agriculture are composed in whole or in significant part, of biological products or renewable materials. They are not petroleum-based, which helps alleviate the consumption of resources that harm the environment. We recommend that people who suffer from asthma and allergic reactions to pollution try these products as an alternative to what they are currently using.
* BerpBioOil offers three viscosities (cSt) with a wider range of weights than any other lubricant on the market to ensure that you will find the right match for your needs:
No.1 light 2.2 cSt
No.2 medium 3.7 cSt
No.3 heavy 5.6 cSt

Great product!
My Spiri trumpet needs some valve work but I can use this oil in the interim to maintain best possible compression until it’s time to get those valves done!

Berp valve Oil
I was using Berp #3 on a 68 year old Conn Constellation. The valve action was sluggish. Called and talked to Josh, and we decided that I should use a lighter weight oil. I got # 1 and # 2 oil and experimented. # 1 0il was great at first until #1 valve stuck in down position. It seemed the oil was evaporating, and I tried # 2 oil. I have been using # 2 for a couple weeks, and the action feels much better than with the original # 3 oil and no sticking problems. I recommend trying Berp oil, but you may have to experiment to determine the which weight oil to use. Good Luck!

Berp Bio for 1947 22B
I recently purchased this oil based on a recommendation for my horn, a 1947 22b NYS. I tried it for several days and felt like the valves were more sluggish compared to La Tromba T2. I'll give it more time, but so far not as good as I thought it would be.

Excellent Heavy Oil
I’ve been an Al Cass guy for two decades. I needed a heavier oil for my aging trumpet and this worked beautifully. I’ll probably never use another oil as long as this is available. Also using it on my newer flugelhorn and it’s working great there too.
