I’ve started dosing kalkwasser for the ph benefit. I dose 2/3 of the required dose at night and 1/3 during the day, but dose constantly as divided by my versa pump. Basically a slow drip. I’ve noticed some ph gain and less dramatic swings from day to night. My goal is to keep about 8.1 at least. Would it be better to “ bolus” dose with bigger amounts throughout the day than the slow drip for better ph benefit? I do not have a kalk reactor. I just use a big mason jar with saturated kalk.
 
I say slow drip. The more stable your tank the better
