My kalk reactor is in my basement and it's about 60°F down there. What should be the conductivity of saturated kalkwasser at that temp?

Does 11.6 mS/cm seem in the ballpark for 15 deg C?At 25 deg C it is about 10.3 mS/cm. At lower temps it will be a small bit higher.

Didn’t want to start a new post for this.
I have been trying to get my kalk stirrer to work KS-100 from reef octo , I run it every hour for 15m (default recommends no more than 10m) and I dose 2300mL a day
I even replaced the motor and still no change
It never seems to bump alk or pH. Just keeps ph @ 7.9-8
I tested the EC today and converted it to mS/cm and it’s 4.8 at lower temps AFTER the unit got done stirring.
Time for new kalk stirrer ?
Make sure your meter can read saturated kalkwasser to be higher by dissolving/suspending 2 tablespoons calcium hydroxide in a cup of ro/di and see what you get.
