Store the water until you need it.

Heat to tank temp and aerate with a powerhead large enough to really move the required amount of water for at least a day before adding salt mix.

It's been my experience to not let the salt mix stay in the mixing container longer than a day, otherwise it will often begin to precipitate stuff on the sides of the container.
