Thanks, Terry!  

I didn’t bother bringing it to unity yesterday, as I wasn’t certain whether that was the issue.  I went ahead with it as written since I usually make up 300 gram batches for tests, parcel out two 100-gram lots from that for colorant tests, then use the remainder as a base test. In this case, the base test will be smaller than usual, but still proportional. I will record your unity version, though, for future use. If anybody has a different version of this (with a hypothetical 11% of missing ingredients), let me know?  

Not worth too much angst for one test possibility - there are other calcium matts in the world. It just seemed disproportionately annoying while I was standing at the glaze-mixing bench thinking that my basic arithmetic neurons had dripped out my ears in the heat.  ;)
