I used those half sized sandwich zip-lock bags. The box says "Snack 
Bags." I'll bet it was the temperature that got you. A little light 
brown when mixed up doesn't seem to be a problem but I wouldn't use it 
if were chocolate brown. :-)

I didn't expect my old D19 to be any good. I was surprised.
