Yeah Baking soda is good for when ever you want to wash!! Ireland woo hoo! They sometimes call it bread soda, but you should be able to find it under baking soda as well it comes in a red tin. Here is a map of water hardness in Ireland where they have a lot of karst limestone that makes it so. http://www.galwaywater.ie/lime-map Have fun and have a pint for me!
Thanks. What are all the other colours?
Good to know about the "bread soda" thing. I wouldn't have thought about that
If you boil your hard water for a few minuites let it cool, this will let the lime particles settle to the bottom. Draw off the water carefully into another container, but leave an inch or so of water behind so that the lime doesn't get into your softened water. Now mix a batch of baking soda wash and your good to go. no more extra fizz!!

hey guys! So im about to do another BS wash! Cant wait but I have to as to get over the hard water here. I've boiled it to mix the bs in now I gotta wait for the solution to cool down alot. It really works using boiling water to mix. Is this is bad idea tho? As the BS fizzes loads when i do it??

good to know. It looks like I won't have very hard water where I'll be, but I'll boil it just to be extra safe
