Can someone point me in the right direction? Looking to estimate the effects of carbonic acid in soda water. I would like to first be able to create a soda with a slightly alkaline pH say around 7.5 and am curious how much alkalinity would be required to do so (assume using distilled). Then I would would like to make a soda fountain style soda that is acidic near a pH of 5. From memory, carbonic acid is weak so maybe the effect is minor and I can stop overthinking it and approach it straight forward. Let's assume carbonation of soda at 4vols or 6g/L.
Thanks in advance.
