Have either of you heard anything on the recent bags of soda ash being more potent than usual? I got a 1 gallon bag of soda ash and made up a gallon of solution. And was dosing my normal amount only to see my alk shoot up past 10. I generally try to keep it around 8.5. Tonight it finally dropped down to 7.6, and I used the calculator on the site to bring it back up to 8.5, dosed the amount it said and checked again and my alk was at 9.1. Just wondering if you had heard anything from other users or customers.
Thanks
