" Its a little risky, you have to avoid getting distracted while the tank valve is closed etc."
Next time you flush your tank turn off water to it and let it drain. Leave valve open place bucket under the outlet. Set timer for one minute turn on water to tank and then at one minute turn it off. How much water did you add to the bucket??? I set mine for 10 minutes and I guarantee I am not adding more than 30-40 gallons to a 50 gallon tank.
Set your phone timer for the appropriate time based on gallons.
