Evaporation

I may have hinted at this topic before, in which case just skip past.

I’m often surprised but how fast fluids can disappear. As an example, I made some raspberry wine a few months ago and I seem to be down to the last bottle. Maybe it was a whole gallon, maybe just a half - I forget. I did have a friend to stay over the summer and I’m now wondering whether the modest quantity remaining in stock is related to the friend’s presence. Probably not, now I think about it, but it’s a plausible explanation.

Anyway, I put the last litre in a one litre plastic bottle but the fact that it doesn’t seal very well worried me, so I just transferred the remaining liquid to a port bottle and disposed of the difference. By ‘disposed’ I don’t mean I threw it away - that would be the easy way out. I did the next best thing and drank it. Not all in one go of course. No - that would be taking my responsibility for recycling and making best use of resources a bit too far - it took a little while. And it probably wasn’t a litre to start with. But my head id fel8ing s abit fissy and theres a sound somethinf on the eere

Still here and quite sober. Honestly. Ish

    No, none!
    I didn’t drink much (certainly nowhere near a litre minus a wine bottle) but it was early evening, before I’d eaten.
    A glass of wine on an empty stomach means the effects can be felt a little more.
