Salt Mix Blending Methodology

[PaulC]

As insurance against a flawed salt batch, I blend 3 brands. I do this by blending them into solution, one at a time. This works quite well, helping to average out any batch inconsistencies.

It would save me time to premix the 3 salts together in dry form, rather than one at a time into solution. However, I am incompetent to determine if dry mixing would result in negative interactions or precipitation during mixing.

So my question to the chemists - will dry blending result in problems?

No, there should be no problems, as long as any individual salt mix is well mixed dry to begin with.
