Hi. Just a silly detail question. Usually the Taylor salt test is unambiguous: from yellow to obviously orange in one drop.
This time was a bit different. The 16th drop caused a just barely noticeable orangish tinge. Then the 17th was all in: dark and obvious.
The Taylor instructions are a bit weird. They say "first change from yellow to milky salmon (brick red)." In my experience "brick red" is a dark red-brown and salmon is pinkish orange. So which do they mean?
More to the point, is the salt at 3200 or 3400 or maybe call it 3300? I know the difference is pretty meaningless. Just curious about the chemistry...
