Two questions concerning Cl/SO4 ratio - one for practical reason and one for the sake of knowing
1) Does the Cl/SO4 ratio affect just bitterness or overall hop flavor too? If just bitterness, is it just bitterness from hops or overall bitterness (e.g. as a result of darker grains and/or other bittering agents)?
2) What is the mechanism of the Cl/SO4 effect?
Thanks.
