Second Wash?

[Squanch72]

I usually only make two to three pints at a time when I prep. For the second wash I have just been doing it in a cup of water only and kneading it for like a minute then chugging it straight down as a treat. I figured it wasn't worth bottling it up as it would be weaker and using it as a pre-shell of sorts till the first batch cools in the refrigerator. Should I be using the same amount of water as the first wash and should I be kneading for another ten minutes?

my first wash is in 2 cups of water.
my second wash is in about 1/2 cup water.
so is my 3rd wash.

@Squanch72, you do what I do. You make a big batch and bottle it up for the week or at least for a few days. Yesterday I used 32 oz water/coconut water and maybe maybe 20 oz went to the first and the rest to the second. More or less the same ratio that @shakas quoted. I also get after the kneading on the second wash. I'm chugging the second wash now and it is plenty potent but this is the Hanapaki Ai' which is very potent to begin with. When I say 32 oz of water, there is some shrink after you heat it up and knead it. So I yielded one 16 oz bottle and the second wash with about about 10oz . I can only imagine how strong the first wash is going to be.

I first wash with 2 ish cups. second wash right away with about .5 cups, and mix them.

Same. Pretty much exactly.
