Ah, well, good to hear. I thought I had read in early articles in the past that the free chloride ion from part A (Calcium chloride) binds with the free sodium ion from part b (Sodium bicarbonate), thus driving up the S.G. secondarily. But I would think that could apply to any 2-part dosing regime so maybe the tanks that were doing this were using a part C with additional NaCl.
