It may just be that you're too timid with the ammonia. If the ammonia you had was pure, a couple of drops would suffice. But, you won't be finding pure ammonia for sale; rest assured that your ammonia was diluted with water. So, you're probably going to need to add more than just a few drops when you replenish it.
