You stated your TA was 80-90. On TESTING, there should be no ish. either it is 80 or it is 90. When the color stops changing, subtract that drop and that is your TA.

Ranges for TA of 60-80 is not ish. It is just a range.

Thanks. I knew I needed these I just didn't know what they were exactly called. I've been playing along at home with a Taylor YouTube video every time I do a test ba ha ha ha!
 
Then lower it until you get to 7.6. allow it to rise to 8.0. repeat until TA is 80 or lower. then do not force pH below 7.8. It should be fairly stable between 7.8 and 8.0, which is just fine.

Im holding at about 7.5 now. Can you clarify the phrase "allow it to rise"? Why will it rise and over what time period?

Also, TA sub 80 is ok?

PH tends to naturally rise. Low pH and high TA causes pH to rise faster. There is typically no reason to raise pH chemically.

pH with TA of 60-80 may takes days/weeks to rise. With a high TA is may only take a day.

with a TA of 60-80, pH should be fairly stable around 7.8-8.0, which is perfectly fine.

Yea, TA of 60-80 is great!

Thank you.

P.s. noticed this in the local history department of my library and snapped a pic for you. "Atlas of Ashtabula County, Ohio" :)
