"After you're made your chemistry, you're going to want to keep it some place where it stays usable and it stays good. One great way to store your chemistry is in these datatainers. Now when I first started when I was a kid, I would keep my chemistry in like milk cartons, just awful things, soda cans, please, just avoid doing that at all costs. These datatainers cost anywhere between five to ten dollars. Seems a little pricey for plastic but it's worth it because you can write your notes down when you made your chemistry, if your chemistry is good or not, what your chemistry even is on these. So they're really, they're really important to use. This is a very common type of one. This is a quart container, again very easy to use, and actually make some that are accordion style, where you can actually press them down to keep air out. In some ways air will make your chemistry go bad faster than actually using your chemistry. So please, don't try to cut corners with stuff like this. You really want to use them because it will help you a lot."
