I only left my rock in for 5 minutes or so. I don't know what the magic number is, but I know I can always put it in again if I needed to.
It was bubbling like crazy and I wasn't sure what was all going on under there so I dumped the baking soda in between the 5 - 10 minute mark.
As far as losing mass, I didn't notice any. I am sure you lose some, but I don't think it's significant.
Today was the only above freezing day I think we may have for a while. I was in a bit of a rush. I think I might just toss it in a bin and let it cycle in the dark for a while in the basement.
