Activated mms color

Why is it when I activate my mms with 4% hydrochloric acid(both bought from Jim Humble) that my color doesn't get the dark amber. More of a yellowish amber.
My bottles are 2 years old and stored properly. Thank you for any imput on this question.

How many drops are you activating? One activated drop may not show an amber color, but 3 drops should. If the drops are confined to a small space, you should see amber. If the drops are spread out, then probably no amber color will be seen.

By the way, Jim Humble has never sold MMS, only books.

@CL02 Thank you for input. I meant the G2church ? It was a couple of years ago and I just remember talking on the phone with maybe Mark? Not sure but it came from their recommendation. I'm using 3-6 drop, last night I let it set for 60 sec in a smaller glass, color was darker.

Just thought I would share this incase it may help. I went back n read pages 39 -41 of "MMS health recovery guidebook". I changed the glass I was using to mix n activate my solutions in to a white plastic cup. There it was the dark amber color. The glass I had been using even against a white paper towel still looked to yellowish. So it was my container I was using and nothing wrong with either my MMS or HCL.
