01

Why measure it

One bottle, one gallon. The color lands the same every time.

Mix into DI
DI over distilled

Lower conductivity, no dissolved solids. Distilled works, but DI is the better base.

One color per fill
Never blend True colors

Two True colors mixed together are not a new color.

Nothing extra
No additives on top

No dyes, no biocides, no kill coils, no other coolants.

The full story

A gallon of pre-mix is mostly water, and water is heavy, expensive to ship and available locally. An 8 oz concentrate that makes a gallon changes the economics completely, and it lets you choose your own water quality rather than inheriting whatever was bottled months ago.
