Hi everyone,
My Taylor 2006C and separate Taylor FAS-DPD top-up kit (powder and liquid) from Amazon (the only place that would ship to me) and different sellers both arrived with small AND large crystals in the powder. Some of the crystals are the size of the scoop itself.
I emailed Taylor and they said "The powder itself should be white or slightly off-white in color with the consistency of heavy talcum powder. Occasionally, it may be slightly heavier. If the powder has “chunks” in it or crystals, or has developed black dots or flecks, then the powder is no longer viable and was exposed to poor storage conditions. "
Reading on these forums its clear others have some crystals in their powder and this seems to be regarded as normal , but some of mine seem huge (the posts I read mentioning crystals didn't indicate their size).
Do you think my powder is still reliable to use?
I've done a bunch of tests with it (it's all I have) and the sample does turn pink when I add it (I have to scoop carefully to avoid getting any huge crystals as they won't dissolve) but Taylor's reply indicates otherwise?
Thanks!
