Hello; I first just starting partial mashing last week, and I think I made what maybe a big or small mistake. I added basically a whole packet of Epsom Salts to my mash water, and regular salt to my sparge water. The reason was that the PH papers weren't going to the desired PH level. I finally got to at least close to the ideal level.
I later read in my study guide that I should have used gypsum. Today, I put my brew in the carboy in hopes that filling it with water, as usual, might fix this problem. Is my brew doomed? If anybody can give me answers on how I might be able to save this brew, please, please let me know.
I have also another another issue, I am looking for gypsum online, and I can't seem to find it anywhere. Does anyone know a good brewing supply site, or maybe a substitute for gypsum? Again, thanks for any info you can give.
