Preparing to do OA in the near future and need a little advice please?
I have spoken to Paynes ref this and they say its fine but it would be nice to get a second opinion....
Oxalic acid 6% solution in distilled water, 30% sugar,water up to 1litre. Its pre mixed and from Italy Enologia Apicoltura.
Question. Is this ok as the strength seems high at 6%. I was going to use it at no more than 5ml per large seam and 3ml on a small seam in a drizzle fasion with syringe. Paynes state that it is a higher strength as its in distilled water and who am I to argue. Any thoughts please? Dont want to poison them through not asking.
Cheers
