Keba -
Yes. you're making too much out of this. It's a good question, but a capful
here and a capful there is going to do no harm at all. A capful here and a
capful there is all it takes to make sure that the clay and slurry are
flocculated, and to make the throwing water kinder to your skin.

After searching the archives and finding lots of interesting information on
vinegar, but nothing to answer my question, I would like to ask: can you
use too much cider vinegar? Whether in throwing water, or in the bucket of
"stinky" scrap clay waiting to be reclaimed...how much is too much? If I
use a capful in my throwing water, will all those capfuls add up to vinegar
overload in the scap bucket, or am I making way too much of all this?!?
