Time for EtG clearance for that amount of alcohol generally ranges 22.5-31.5 h. See Dahl 2002 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12054359?dopt=Abstract); Helander & Beck 2004 (http://www.clinchem.org/content/50/5/936.full.pdf) All of the elimination studies are based on small samples but provide general time profiles for low consumption only.

There should be no EtG in your system based on 2-3 drinks at that time.

Kris,
A little advice. Don't keep trying to challenge this test. The low amount you consumed can be cleared with some predictability. A couple more drinks and you're in different territory. It's just better to suck it up and live with it for the duration of testing. This test provides false positives at a very high rate. That's danger enough.

I understand that but tell me this.. I don't drink soda all I drink is water and tea and vitamin water, been on a diet since before I started probation I have been clear of all my drops. So my dilution rate is very high as well and am well prepared to bring that up.. I work outside so I drink at least a gallon of water a day that's not against the law. I would never comsume more than four drinks in six hours
