Noman Tek wash question

[DoctorMantus]

After doing a small stb just wondering are there alternative ways to wash crystals if swim does not have sodium carbonate?

Do you have any sodium bicarbonate? Baking soda. You can easily convert it to sodium carbonate.

Ammonia will work too.
And I don't mean rinsing the crystals like in the original tek, use it to basify the water like you would carbonate.

Thanks a lot for the response i will def try what you said with the baking soda i do not have ammonia and i am trying to stay away from it because the tek explains that it only furthers problems and an ineffective way of cleaning.

and instead of using oven could i just pop it in conventional since it preheats to 400F?

Like I said, you don't use it as a rinse of the crystals like originally in the tek, you use it to basify your water for the NP wash.
But whatever.
