Sterilised Water
 

Hi

I make my own wine and have to sterilise 5 Litre drums. Can this water be used on my garden or should it be poured down the drain!
It is a Chlorine 7% w/w if that makes any difference.

Would it evaporate off if it was left in an open water butt? (Thinking of
the advice when you are topping up fish tanks).

I'm sure it would be OK in a water butt: it'll be diluted in the
first place, and should have time for the available chlorine to come
off before the water's used. (I can't really imagine the chlorine
would hang about for more than a week. I'm sure you can ignore any
small-scale reactions which may or may not take place)

That's neat bleach! Seems like an absurdly high concentration for
sterilising wine-making equipment. I don't even think you should pour
it down the drain if you've got so much of it that you feel the need
to ask!
