Citric soak

Thank you all for an interesting insight.

Soaks and such have been noted throughout various threads that they take better with heat...is this true of the citric soaking? With some steel and specialist chemicals I have personally seen some benefit in this but I ask also for economy too (saving product)...I am thinking, as the citric soak is not a harsh chemical, of keeping the required pine apple juice or other mix I may make in the fridge, encapsulated in capped PVC tubing for longevity and actually soak blades in the tube in the fridge...just something I have been pondering...does anyone have any experience with such notions?

With thanks
