Ok you were describing my afr use wrong from how I am running, and have ran it.
So that was the reason tor caps, aka bold print.
I am 100% sure I was the very first person in the USA to use the afr powder. In use for over 2 years now. And before that it was the diy mix. I was using the diy even before the brs recipe was printed, just a slightly different mix. I diluted mine more.
I understand you asked some questions, but I wanted to clarify exactly what I was and am doing, so that you had a 100% understanding of that before I answered otherwise you may be confused, of working under bad advice which I do not ever want to be the source of.
No offense taken. No bad advice obtained. I have a great handle on A4R. Definitely under appreciated product. I haven’t tried A4R powder, because at this point I like the flexibility of DIY recipe.
I was working on my own recipe to increase A- for the high iodine depletion in my tank. I was going to run a 3 month test with monthly ICP’s but then my tank got wiped by Hurricane Ida in August 2021.
