Hi Nena :) Hey There Doc ! Remember when I steared you to the site that showed the info about baking soda... We're talkin about adding a 1/2 teaspoon to a gallon of C.S., Mix it well, pour some in a beaker, and test with PH-paper... Should be around 7 / 8 p.h. at least... But hey, If you added so much you can taste it, then you must be using @ a teaspoon to a cupfull... Well, enjoy your antacid & prepair for a mighty burp :)
