Somebody pls help...Got my Co2 indicator this afternoon, did my 1st check tonight, it turn yellowish rapidly during the first Co2 checker drop even i switch off my Co2, then I put the indicator into pail filled with tap water, the problem is, the indicator remain yellow in color after 1 hour inside the pail, is that normal? or the chemical is expired, or it may need a few hours to get color change? TQ
