Alk calculations

[Rmckoy]

I just tested alk again 24 hours after bringing it to 8.5dkh

7.7
I’ll attach a picture of the calculator for soda ash ( baked baking sofa )
But it doesn’t help much with how much to dose every 24 hours after mixed

You dose what you lose. It all depends on each tank. I lose around 1 KH a day so I dose to raise my alk 1KH each day. To figure this out, simply test your alk, then wait till the next day at the same time and see how much it dropped.

As above ...
My system consumes 0.7dkh in 24 hours .

But how much to dose if liquid

Ah so you mixed the baking soda into some ro/distilled water in a jug?

Following. Alk at 5.7. Took a third cup of baking soda. Cooked at 200 or so according to brs calculator for one hour. Dumped into quart glass jar and added ROI. Creates a supersaturated solution with lot of powder at bottom. Now up to 20cc twice a day with little alk or pH (7.8) change. Am I not even close to what I need to add?
