Thanks, Mara. I will try to guesstimate an appropriate concentration of white vinegar in water to keep the fresh berries mold-free. This would really help me.

Hey Mara...thank you for the reply...yeh Wikipedia is an awesome resource, wish I had a penny for each search of various info!...I guess I should have better asked why is it legal if it is made from grain? Does the distillation process somehow render it OK? I may have forgotton this SCD pearl of wisdom...MK
