「ちょっとカタいかな～」「カタい？」「粘度が高すぎるってことさ」

「」「？」「」

"It's a bit stiff, huh?" "Stiff?" "I mean the viscosity is too high."

Literal

"Little stiff [question-かな]" "Stiff?" "Viscosity [subject-が] too-high [quotative-って] thing [copula-さ]"

A compact technical conversation. カタい (硬い/固い) in katakana emphasizes the word as specialized jargon — here meaning 'viscous, thick' rather than physically hard. 粘度 ('viscosity') is the technical term. The ~って+ことさ ending is a casual explanatory structure: 'it means that X,' with さ as the masculine soft-emphatic. A glimpse into a kitchen or lab conversation.
