We don't do any adjustments for pH, just for emphasizing hops, if that makes sense.Seanywontonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06142253930096998849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6503041414576508480.post-69351610827780214942010-10-20T20:00:01.595-07:002010-10-20T20:00:01.595-07:00I might have to check those pre packed salts out. ...I might have to check those pre packed salts out. Ive been going the lazy brewer way lately by just adding a set amount of gypsum and calcium chloride, going slightly more in either direction depending on whether it's a bitter beer or a roasty beer. It's such a chore to work it out exactly when our water is so neutral anyways. Do you do many adjustments at Alameda?Paul!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02305373848929479630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6503041414576508480.post-12487914605407407352010-10-19T14:50:48.972-07:002010-10-19T14:50:48.972-07:00If the conservative women give you grief over the ...If the conservative women give you grief over the name, you can always call it "Denny the Pigmy"<br />You can figure out the references I am sure.<br />Makes me thirstyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05810510856662993558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6503041414576508480.post-22218362746184982982010-10-19T11:05:10.655-07:002010-10-19T11:05:10.655-07:00Yes, it's the pre-mixed Burton Salts from the ...Yes, it's the pre-mixed Burton Salts from the homebrew store, which I use to kind of "half-Burtonize" the water. I think for full Burton on Trent you are supposed to use 1 tsp/gallon of brewing water. I just want to get a nice snappy bitterness and reduce the mash pH a bit, nothing major.Seanywontonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06142253930096998849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6503041414576508480.post-44999515019107158732010-10-18T23:47:08.217-07:002010-10-18T23:47:08.217-07:00when you say "burton salts" do you mean ...when you say "burton salts" do you mean the little packet they sell at the homebrew store? or slight salt additions to pronounce the bitterness?Paul!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02305373848929479630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6503041414576508480.post-26528896196685860382010-10-09T21:44:14.146-07:002010-10-09T21:44:14.146-07:00Looking at the first pic of Ryan and reading rest ...Looking at the first pic of Ryan and reading rest of the post all I could think of was DOUG!
