Kalk Precip

[Beverly]

Steve,

Yes, there is a little bit of powder on the bottom of the mixing jug, but not much. When I used 2 teaspoons of kalk per 4L, there was much more powder on the bottom, so I switched to using only 1 teaspoon of kalk powder. Either way, I would discard about the last 1/2 L of the mixture so none of the powder would get into the tanks.

One thing that I find strange is that when I pour the kalk mix into a clear 2L bottle before pouring into the dripper, the kalk mix is not clear as I would sort of expect it to be. However, I used the slightly cloudy kalk mix in the dripper and didn't have precip until my last water change.
