Trying to raise my alk a bit. Calculator says how much baking soda but doesn’t specify how much RO water to mix it in. I assume it’s not that important but just want to make sure.
 
I don't think it's important. On the rare occasion that I've had to raise Alk, I just mixed the baking soda with RO/DI in an empty water bottle. 18 or 20 ounces maybe?
