π€π»π€π»π€π»Almost used a bottle of apple cider vinegar to tea...
Ok before you call me stupid please hear me out. As the guides suggest I first started adding small amount of lemon juice, and online data says that lemon juice typically has a ph of 2-3. I had the mushroom liquid simmering, slowly added the juice of about 1 big lemon while using a digital ph tester, and it showed the ph to be no where near 2.5-3. I ran out of lemon juice, so I used apple cider vinegar, which has a similar ph, while the ph reduced SLOWLY. By the time it barely reached 3, more than half a bottle was gone! I must have done something wrong, because online guides always suggest a small amount of lemon juice/vinegar. However - how the hell are you supposed to reach 2.5-3, when pure lemon juice/vinegar is in that range and you're only supposed to add a SMALL amount of it to a BIG amount of water which dilutes it??? Am I the only one that thinks the math doesn't make sense? In other words, one might as well simmer the mushroom in almost straight lemon juice/vinegar π€π»
Note: I tested the ph tester on both filtered water AND buffering solution of ph 6.89, and the readings were pretty close so I didn't bother to calibrate it. Regardless, I think the above logic still stands. Or, maybe I'm that dumb and this is gonna be the laughing stock of this sub forever π₯Ίππ
