Cool. Thanks for that. I collected in 400ml jars today and found out I had nowhere near enough jars.
Off to the shops this week to buy more.

I bet he would be happy if you took him whatever you won't be drinking for the two days.

Main problems with a little bit of alcohol after an extraction is increased risk of bleeding and if you have more than a little bit you might do something stupid and damage the wound.

I usually just say avoid it for the rest of the day. You should be fine tomorrow.

Cheers,

Richard

If your confident running your still you can push it a bit harder through the hearts, you will soon learn how fast you can go before the ABV drops, you should be good for at least 2.5 if not 3l/hr :handgestures-thumbupleft:
