kh solution cloudy

[Vagabond]

While mixing my new batch of kh,i noticed the that the solution is very cloudy,and it would not clear up when mixing.
I let it sit for a few minutes and the cloudiness settled to the bottom of the container while the top part of the water
clear.I've not come across this before and concerned that it might cause an issue when dosing.The only thing that has
changed is the replacement of the rodi filters which was done about a week ago.

What alk material?

Any chance any of a calcium solution or tank water got into it?

Brightwell Aquatics,i cleaned the container before mixing.Will this be a problem when dosing?
Should i try again?
