Thats great to be able to throw perfectly good salt away due to not
wanting to store or measure it. There has been a few times I sure wished I had just 1/2 cup more salt..........Its not a big deal to add a little salt or water to adjust........at least not to me. And a buck saved is a buck I can spend on other things instea dof buying the same thing in "exact" quanitity at a later date....Gues I am just a pack rat and too frugal to trash something that way...

Added a bit later to get the SG correct. That left enough salt in the bucket to make up 50 or 60 gallons of water. I usually make up about 27 gallons at a time in a big trash can. I usually buy a box the right size for 25 gallons of water. It all works out ok. I didn't want to be playing around adding salt a little at a time to get the SG correct for the next two water changes.
