Hey guys I'll be brewing Denny's BVIP this weekend and want to make sure I have my water measurements and adjustments correct... I've been using Palmers Residual alkalinity chart to get my additions but wanted some more experienced guys to check my numbers:
Here is my water
Ca: 13.5
Mg: 2.7
Na: 15
SO4: 26.4
Cl: 26.6
HCO3: 16
I am going for a london profile but adjusted based on what palmers spreadsheet says:
According to Palmer for 12 Gallons of My water my adjustments are:
7 Grams of Chalk
1 Gram of Gypsum
1 Gram of Calcium Chloride
3 Grams of Epsom Salt
2 Grams of Baking Soda
2 Gramas of Canning Salt
Giving me an adjusted Chemistry of
Ca: 86ppm
Mg: 6ppm
Na: 44ppm
SO4: 64ppm
Cl: 64ppm
HCO3: 118
According to the RA chart from Palmer I will have
Effective hardness of 65
Residual Alkalinity of 53
Balanced Chloride to Sulfate ratio
I'm not adding any acids or any Distilled Water
Thanks guys
