Method Sn question

[skitliv]

I have one question

Some say 99.6 percent pure (food grade) while others say "reagent" grade.

Which one is best?

Thanks

From sn megathread original post "SN: The main compund for this method, Sodium Nitrite is easy enough to find. You're looking for >98% purity Nitrite". So youre good as im going to assume reagent would be higher than food grade. Either would work though

Food grade seems to be better

Food grade seems to be better

how so?

I don't think it makes a difference as long as the purity is high enough (98%)
FYI I bought 35g food grade SN from ebay.

The SN I bought last week is 99.5% so im confident that will do the trick.

I would agree with people who say 98% and above is the best to get.

Personally, I just wanted to get the 99.5% for peace of mind.
