CO2 reg pressure for Ca reactor

Got the bubble counter but wondering what I should set the CO2 regulator to for a Ca reactor?

My Aqua Medic reg is fixed at 1.5 bar and then you adjust with the needle valve for bubble count or are you asking for bubble rate?
You could start with effluent rate of about 25cc min and adjust bubble count until PH is in 6.6 - 6.8 range.

Thanks. With a bar at 14.5psi guess I'll set the reg to ~20psi and adjust needle valve from there.
