Bro, just fill the plastic bottle with 5ml of tank water. Then start dripping the regent into it. The number of drops it takes to change the water from blue to yellow, will indicate your KH.

The regent itself is yellow / orange color.

If the regent added into the water, the water will turn blue one, if the water is at least 1KH. Unless your water is 0KH, then when you drops the regent in it, the water will turn yellow / orange straight.
