Hi. I’m dosing about 3000mL of saturated kalk daily. That’s all I’m dosing. My alk fluctuates what I feel is too much. Could be testing margin but I’m just wondering if anyone has any tips and tricks on how I might be able to stabilize my readings a bit more? Should I split my 24 hr dose into day time and night time since day time consumption is more than night?

I’m not sure why it would be unstable day to day if you dose the same amount every day.

Most demand is likely during the daylight, so dosing more then will stabilize alk but destabilize pH.
