I had previously been dosing kalk through an IV drip and have just recently begun mixing Kalk and adding it to my Nurce top-off system.The last batch I mixed I did not let settle long enough before adding and now It has settled to the bottom of my Nurce. My question is will this cause a problem if I just leave it there? Its really a hassle for me to get the Nurce out of my stand in order to clean it. Just wondering what you guys usually do.
Also I have been thinking of adding vinegar to the kalk first, is it my understanding that this dissolves all of the kalk and prevents any from settling to the bottom? Thanks, Jimmy

I Have not cleaned out my NURCE for quite a while now. I have the model that you can dose kalk with as it has two holes, one higher to avoid dosing the sludgy kalk that settles out. I am getting ready to clean it though as it has really built up down there. I have seen no ill effects from not cleaning the kalk sludge out in many months. Others may have opinions as well.

I have been dosing Kalk with my Nurce for about six months now. I too have some kalk precipitate at the bottom of the container. It doesnt seem to hurt anything.
