Storing recharged Purigen

jbrady33 · 11-12-2012, 07:57 PM

I have 2 100ml pillows for my nano, plan on recharging and rotating as needed. The first pillow to be used is now bleached (day) and rinsed (48 hours+ with prime). How should it be stored until it is up for use again? Air dry it and ziplock the best bet?

Don't dry it out. You could put it in a ziplock after it's well-rinsed in conditoned water & while it's still damp. Or just let it sit in a tub/bucket in fresh conditioned water until you're ready to use it.
