Did you just mix it with water?

I mixed some indigo powder with grape juice this morning ... it didn't release any
blue right away, but after about an hour it was a sort of sea-weedy bluegreen color I
*think* -- but when I dip a little white paper in it still doesn't look like it's staining
blue ... I'm keeping an eye on it. I *know* mine is 100% indigo, but am surprised to
not see as much blue - maybe my grape juice is too acidic? But all this just to tell you
that even with 100% pure indigo I'm not getting a clear "blue dye release" like I
thought I'd see ...

Have you tried a web search for information on the brand name?
