Baking the baking soda (sounds funny) does not change its alk value (at least by much) it just drives off CO2 to keep your tank ph up.
In other words, if you do not bake it well, that is not the reason your alk is down.
yeah I figured it out a little while ago. It was the mixing up of the bottles. I emptied my mix out of each and rinsed the bottles well, then made up a new batch of 2 part. When I mixed them up incorrectly, I remember thinking "how come everything's not dissolving as nicely as last time?" lol. It was precipitating in the bottle
