Hi all. Apologies if this has been asked or should be somewhere else. I rinsed some carbon for my reactor about a week and a half to 2 weeks ago. Long story short never started the reactor so it's been sitting in the reactor rinsed and ready. Now my question is, can I still fire it up and use that carbon that's been sitting after I rinsed it or should I toss it and start fresh?
 
I would think that it's fine to use. Carbon is just to remove the dust. No harm in it sitting for a while.
