That's the presentation done and the chemicals ready.
Some slight changes to the plan though. We've had Offshore Europe in Aberdeen this week and it has been a bit mental so I wasn't able to get as much prep as I liked done.
Firstly, I wasn't able to grab any labware for the demonstrations, but this should only really affect the SO2 test. I'd like to have done this, but unfortunately that's not going to be possible. I'll still cover it though and I still have the test kits themselves.
Secondly, I've taken enough for those that asked. I'm really sorry about this, but there were just too many bottles to prepare and the week has not given me much in the way of free time.
Thirdly... well thirdly will wait until Saturday.Dutch Gunderson: Who are you and how did you get in here?

Just something you chaps might like to try with the Richie's acid test kit. Add some of the test solution into the must without the indicator.
I'm betting most people will be surprised with the colour change. I was but when your doing the titration it helps if you dilute the sample of must with distilled water, and you look at where the test solution enters the sample. It will go a little pink in that area, the test is complete once you can't see the pink any more.
And Finally (ish)
I'd like to thank all those who attended Grapefest for making it a great event, those who talked, those who crushed and those (like me) who hid until the real work was over.
A straw poll suggests that next year a talk on water chemistry with regards to beer would be appreciated.
I'd especially like to thank the (Gigantic) spider in Pete's car for not eating him when Pete politely asked him to move from the passenger seat. And I thank god that Brian left the marker pen in the hotel when I had a wee kip during the wine tasting.Dutch Gunderson: Who are you and how did you get in here?

Woops. That bit about 'not seeing the pink any more is rubbish. The test is done once you start to see a faintish pink colour that hangs around.
