Oh for sure, and I promise you that I don't very often either (this it the first ) -- but to build a current-canadian-distribution list I'd love for a few others to do the same

Do you roll you bucket first?

I actually wish there was another inch of space inside the buckets so mixing is easier!

The problem is that there can be huge differences between batches. IO told me their acceptable Ca levels were 350 - 430. That's a huge swing. So I'm not sure you can build a table worth anything if other salt brands are like that. although, a table with enough data might show this trend in other salts too.

I'm kinda screwed. I buy salt in boxes, and rolling them is a lot of work!
