New to Java - can you tell me what´s wrong on my program?

Hello everyone. I started to learn Java from the course here on Sololearn. I have completed it all in a couple of hours, but I haven´t understood a lot of things. So I am taking the course again and trying to make a short program after each lesson. I just started module about OOP and made a program, where you can mix up to 3 different liquids to make yourself a custom cocktail. It works fine, but I hit a tiny problem. I want to ask user 3 times for 3 different things. The outpus should look like this: You can have up to 3 diferent liquids in your cocktail. Type "1","2" or "3". The given slot will get overwritten. <USER INPUT> Type liquid - for example "soda". <USER INPUT> Type volume in mililitres - for example "150" <USER INPUT> But it firstly prints all the instructions and THEN it acceptsuser input 3 times. Can you tell me where did I make a mistake?

Problematic part of my program: System.out.println("You can have up to 3 diferent liquids in your cocktail. Type \"1\",\"2\" or \"3\". The given slot will get overwritten."); Scanner n = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Type liquid - for example \"soda\""); Scanner lq = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println("Type volume in mililitres - for example \"150\""); Scanner vl = new Scanner(System.in);

I have one more problem. When I write String input = new Scanner(System.in).next(); it throws me warning: Resource leak '<unassigned Closeable value>' is never closed! What can I do about this? I have the same problem alway, when I use Scanner.

String input = new Scanner(System.in).next();
