A few specs of residual kitty litter doesn’t weigh much, I would not worry about it. As long as there sealed up appropriately.
"totem also recommended ’beaks’...yeah, right."
The beaks can make a dramatic difference. I hung around while a friend tuned his sttaf’s long after they endured plenty of break in time. Then beaks were installed. Unlike a lot of flashy gimmicks they are one of those things that just work. After beaks were installed they were partially loaded with Sudbury nickel.
dfelkai I recommend trying both, beaks and mass. Run them bare until you get accustomed to them, then do a before and after. Don’t fill them up at one go. Gradually load, test, repeat. When you pass an obvious sweet spot remove a little. Weighing each time you add makes it easy.
