Has anyone measured exactly how much water to add? I know it says 80%, but because it isn't clear, that isn't exactly an easy way to measure.

I fill it up until it bubbles over, the quickly turn it upside down to dump a bit out. That seems to work pretty well.

1/2 a cup exactly then subtract 3 1/2 tsp. I use a syringe type dropper made for oral medicine to measure. Your results may be a little different... but this is a really good place to start. For me this makes round death stars. If you add too much you get fun house mirror death stars shaped all cone like on the top. (which is the bottom of the mold)

Hi Lex,I noticed the flow meter does not work very well for low flow rates. The meter was not registering when I had the flow rate set to about 1/2 gal per minute . I initial used to monitor volume of water consumed at low flow rate over two hours. The meter did not register any volume of water and the flow rate was zero. Now I water at a higher flow rate about 2 gal per minute.Maybe you can contact the Manufacture and find out minimum flow rate.

I have the same question. It seems like the 1:2 ratio (rice ; water) doesn't work. There was a mess of steamed out water around. It's weird there is no clear instruction in the instructions.

I did a test with just the water to establish an answer to that question... I would imagine anything other than a neutral starting water would skew the results. My water was neutral on all counts. I dont have any science to back this up as necessary but I did it for my own peace of mind.

Late answer but maybe it can help others. I just finished using the product and measured out 8 2/3 cup of product.

I measured last night by pouring water into one of the cups (filled to the top) and then pouring that water into a liquid measuring cup. It came out to just over 2 oz...maybe 2.25 oz.

Traci, I add it to my dogs water. She liked the taste so much, at first I had a hard time slowing her down; she just kept drinking. She has been on it for a while, and I add it to every other bowl. Also her water bowl is about a gallon, and she weighs 40 lbs. I add the daily amount to the water. In the beginning I doubled the amount for about a week. The directions are clear, the product is as stated, and the vendor is terrific.

Yes and you need to follow the directions exactly in the ratio of how much...ratio to water. It is a good product :-)

I was confused too, but I believe you add water to activate it. However I believe that you don't want to do it until you're ready to use it.

Laura, I have the starter kit with the spoon, and it measures at 1 tablespoon per 2 gallons of water. Thanks!

I believe it was a quart of water, but you had to start with one cup or so and add to the right consistency. You will know when it is just right just make sure you stir it a lot in between water adds. A large stepping stone in usually 3x a small one. The large stones are quite large though. I think I had to buy those separately. Anyway just add small amounts just know if you add to much water it will take a while to dry.

I agree with the others, make sure you do not have too much water. If you are using the Brikka model, then first you measure the water in the upper chamber by filling to the "H2O" fill line and then pour it into the lower chamber. The lower chamber will then only be partially filled. I have the 4 cup model and it fills to about 1/2" below the valve inside the lower chamber.

That's a difficult answer because it all depends on what the liquid is. If you're wanting to know straight amount it's 1/2 cup (I just filled it up with tap water, and poured the amount in the sleeve into a measuring cup), but that would be a liquid like water. If you're making a smoothie I don't think a reviewer can answer that because we all make smoothies differently, which means they would all take up various volumes. Hope that makes sense.

Off the top of my head I think it needed a 1:1 ratio with water (1 part G12 to 1 part water). Its best to use denatured or distilled water for best results.

Too much? Lol this is perfect for a ten gallon. And you have a 55 which makes me think it's not enough. That's me responding at a 2. Don't make me turn it up to a ten. In all seriousness there is not anything you can do. However, I am still honestly surprised it's too much. May I ask how?

Just add water and mix it up. Not sure if there is a restriction on how much to drink per day, I don't know why there would be a limit though.

Sorry but I didnt measure my dilution....I only use a lid full to half bucket (guestimate)...ALSO - looking back on my description I failed to mention that my car was silver in color which doesnt reveal hard water spots...Sorry I couldnt give you a straight answer
