It is possible if you simply add HCl when you see a bluish tinge or
etching slows down, and regenerating does no longer work.
I promise you the blue is lack of HCl, no fancy chemical formulas here,
but been there, seen that.
Measuring molarity is dead easy however and you don't have to wait for
trouble.
