So I broke my alcoholmeter in my parrot the other day right at the end of a run. I didn't have time to clean it out properly and just left it. Checked tonight and there are a bunch of small balls in there and they have left a bit of black staining in the drain off valve at the bottom of the parrot.
I did a stripping run yesterday with them in there and totally forgot.
Will the stripping run be safe or should I toss it?
I have had a bit of a go at cleaning out the bottom of the parrot with steel wire brushes and steel wool.
Should I just chuck the parrot entirely or should it be fine?
My limited searching has led me to believe that the ball bearings in alcometere are now are no longer lead and there shouldn't be any mercury. It is(was) a kegland alcometer.
I feel bloody stupid. My old man was right about me.
Cheers for any opinions.
