Your volts seem normal considering the cool bath.
Was the dye heated to 140F? Are you able to check the PH?
Yeah that could be a good chance. I did however lye dipped them and desmutted them. Beads are new so not sure if contamination on the media would be a factor or not. How exactly do you check the ph of dye? Should it be around neutral?
