Hey BRS. I notice that the bulk alkalinity, calcium and magnesium supplements are either on sale for a deep discount or are marked as "discontinued" rather than "out of stock". Are you guys really discontinuing them?

They changed packaging and better purity from what I read.

They also have a 7-lb option of their new soda ash on the website for $23, it makes over 6 gallons. That means to make ~40 gallons you need to spend $153, compared to the previous $85?
And looks like they fully discontinued the real large 5G bucket size entirely, which was a large savings over smaller sizes. I'm if it wasn't a big seller. I've never considered it myself. Too much (size) to buy at once to use and store for me.
Here's a good discussion on it.I just saw in one of the discussion forums that you can take plain old baking soda, put it on a cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for abt an hour. Boom. Soda ash at a fraction of purchasing. It might have been by Randy Holmes-Farley but not entirely sure. I was doing a lot of research.
I have tried their calculator, both the old and new product. It ends up being the same amount.I also noticed that there are new additions in the BRS calculator for the new products. I'm curious how long the old products will remain in the calculator because I have quite a bit of stock and may reference them for quite a while before using the new products.
The old 7lb (1 gallon jug) was $20 and the new is $23. Marginal increase when comparing similar sizes.
