My ALK drops .2 daily. I have a doser to use to replace ALK. I have been using Brightwell code B. How much ml a day do I need to dose to maintain my level. I know I should be able to figure it out. I also thinking about changing over to baking powder. My levels went from 8.0 to 8.8 in one day. I stop dosing and in 5 days it is at 8.2. I would like to keep it there. Sunday my alk was 8.0. I messed with rhe doser. It dosed 10ml that afternoon. Monday Alk was 8.8. Tuesday 8.7, wed. 8.6. Today 8.2. Thanks for the help.
 
On the bright well instruction it should give you the formula based on your total water volume. Your gonna gave to do some math :)
 
So on Brightwell web site. Following how to add it up. It tells me to dose 18ml but 10ml is what made it jump from 8.0 to 8.8. So I guess my doser is not right.
