 WARNING
 It is necessary to be careful in handling the acid, as it will
burn or blister the skin very easily and eat through cotton clothes
with great rapidity. Keep your hands out of it, and do not allow
it to splash or spatter. Have at hand some water which has been
saturated with baking soda and use this to put on any acid which
you may get on your skin or clothes.
 Do not use sulphuric acid in metal utensils; use glass or wood
and replace the hardware cloth on the strainer when it becomes
badly damaged.
