the best way to tell is dip some out and let cool then taste it and see.

the seasoning is a powerful thing to taste on its own like that but you need to get used to how strong it needs to be to impart the right flavors inside the shells. otherwise your just guessing and the second or third batches can be much different seasoned.

all tht being said there are 1000 different ways for 1000 different cooks but you get the general idea and that's why I gave percentages
Gotcha, thanks. I've always had the luxury of boiling for big parties on a large commercial setup, but I have an upcoming event where I'm going to have to do multiple boils in multiple pots.
