Calcium Chloride, Aqueos - Different Strengths

[wharris]

I typically buy my CaCl from Leeners.  Leener's stated CaCl concentration is 30%.

In looking to purchase this from Dairy Connection, I could not determine the concentration from their web site.
So I inquired, and I got the following response:

"Our Calcium chloride is 33%
Please let me know if  you have any other questions.
Thank you,

Just an FYI.

Crap!  well, now I know where I will be buying my next bottle!  Thanks Wayne!

Wayne, thanks, good to know that roughly the same concentration.

[padams]

So, the 3% won't make much of a difference?

No, not practically. Usually, in the home setting, you're adding blindly anyway because it's not practical to test the milk for existing Ca++ balance. Plus, there are measurement errors because 1/4 tsp vs 1/4 tsp+1 ml have a meniscus that looks about the same.

Great people too! They gave me a tour of the shop when I visited them in October. We talked for at least an hour. They actually told me I could buy certain moulds cheaper from Glenagarry then them! I still bought them at DC just because they were so honest and nice and I was holding them in my greedy little hands at the time. 


No please don't take my moulds away ... please!

Completely agree.  Great people.  There was a reason i was moving many of my purchases to them.

[padams]

wow.  That really is great customer service!  I wish I live back East in Dairy Country.....

It only took me 2 day to drive there!
