So, I'm sure we have all heard that the borate levels are higher than usual in these salts and that can mess with alkalinity testing. However almost everything I read about that is pretty old, and there was a statement in 2015 from Seachem about how they have lowered it from about 20x NSW to 4x.
What is a fresh batch typically testing at for alk? If you get a reading of say, 9 dKH I guess you can safely assume the total alk (meq/L) is slightly more?
Thanks
