Thanks mike you answered my question on this and another question I had

lye to raise the ph to the same level.

The same could be done with a ph meter with external alarm. Put a relay
inline to a solenoid valve when it hits the right ph the solenoid valve
shuts off flow. Just use a measureing device like a burett. when you come
back to it read the burett and see how many ml was used.
