Me to literally yesterday i checked it and it was still the old one lol

Forgot all about this. I had a VOA done and i was wrong about ester. Dead wrong. Oxidation was 13 so there is a dash id imagine? But nothing substantial like i had expected. Ill dig it up when i got time this evening

Imagine the teams calls going on in these companies...
