I have not...but currently my recipe is reading a mash pH of 5.67...what alternatives are there?

I actually really like the way that sounds. I will definitely consider it on my next cream ale attempt

Ok, so here's what I have put together for this beer recipe: 7 lbs 6 Row 2 lbs flaked corn 1 lb honey malt 1 lb corn sugar (boil) 1 oz cluster (60 min) 0.5 oz crystal (10 min) 1 packet wyeast Kolsch 2565 1 whirlfloc tablet (15 min) 1 tbsp pH 5.2 Stabilizer (mash) -90 minute mash @ 150 F...

Also I just realized that made no sense haha. I guess I am just using the corn sugar for the sake of having some more sugar. My buddy Tom gave me the base recipe.
