Kalkwasser Saturation

TRUE OR FALSE.

use about 2 teaspoons per gallon or ro/di water to make your kalkwasser recipe for top off water.

P.S. I heard that it doesnt really matter how much kalkwasser you mix because the middle clear water is basically the water you use and the sediment and the top crust is what couldnt be disolved.

in other words the water in the middle is the same as someone elseS that HAS BEEN mixeD it up.

I use 3 tsp per gallon with 1 tbsp of white vinegar in the RO water. More kalk will dissolve and it lowers the pH of the kalkwasser.
