Co2 And Ph!

[Truck]

i have recently installed my own co2 system the recipe is 3 cups of sugar to 3 cups of water and a teaspoon of yeast.

at the moment im using an airsttine and im getting about 20-30 bubbles a second. is that to much. i dont want my ph to go down too much maybe 1 or so.

should i make a weaker mixture?

this depends on your kh, if it is below 4dkh then you will notice large ph swings. |But if it is higher, then it usually dops by 0.8-1.2ph - sometimes less.
