Measure your vessel at its working fill level rather than assuming the capacity is identical to the amount you will use. A controlled water measurement gives a useful starting point for scaling a recipe.
These starting points come from the supplier listing, not a tasting test by KongMing. Adjust one variable at a time and record what you notice.
