Today i attempted in making the 60/30/10 flash mix, kno3/al/s (using 350# Al) , but i forgot it was 60 and so did 70 kno3 i mixed this thoroughly.I then attempted to light 1g of the stuff ,did not work so i put a sprinkle of BP on and lit it what followed was about 7 seconds of white sparks and heavy crackling.Is there a crackle mix similar to this and can i use this for crackling stars?
New crackle mix?

I think you will find that if you consolidate this into a star then all you will get is a white / streamer star (if it lights). MgAl etc crackles (sounds OK at close range) but is not effective enough to be used at proper viewing distances.
