I've had the black flecks too but it's been a long
time sing I've had to use KRST. One thing I remember
from using it is it has a strong ammonia smell. Does
yours?

I've run into some unexpected problems toning with
KRST. ...
I diluted the selenium 1:9 in distilled water as
is my habit.
By the time I had the second sheet of Kentmere in
the toner,
the toner started turning brown and by the fifth
sheet, the
toner looked like liquid fudge
This sounds very odd. I have had very small amounts
of
a black flaky precipitate form in the bottle but
nothing
like you describe.
I did have something like this happen once - though
it
wasn't with KRST. I had added alcohol and ammonia
to a
jug of distilled water to make window cleaner.
Then,
of course, forget what was in the jug and used it as
distilled water for making up chemistry. I couldn't
figure out what was going wrong ...
Could you be using spent fixer instead of distilled
water? The silver in the old fix will go a deep
red-brown color by the action of the KRST.
