thanks for the quick respond. Do I just mix the Kalk into the water..then shake it .. how long should I wait before I can pour the clear water into the aquadose. With those left over milky mix, can I pour in more water to mix another batch or it's better to use a fresh kalk powder

Mix the kalk in a separate bucket. Let it sit for 30-60 min to let the precipitate settle out. Then pour the liquid into your Kent aquadoser. Discard the precipitate. I don't think you can use the white precipitate again.

buy a mixer
Simple one from OA will do. set to a pump mix it twice a day and make an auto top off , so many ways you can do this. I fill my mixer once maybe every 2 -4 months depending. When the tank tops itself up, Kalk is being added. I cannot imagine doing the hard method each day. I run a Cal reactor and a kalk mixer and my levels stay perfect. Think about it!!!
