    oops-one more question- using my taylor test kit and testing TA, when color is supposed to change from green to red, is it true red? Or should I stop when it changes at all (pink)?

    It is not true red. A definite change from green to pink is what you are after.

    basically just keep adding drops until a drop produces no more color change and then don't count that last drop. Same with the calcium hardness test.
