Hello happy brewers...
I'm getting geared up for my first AG batch and I just got my water report from the local company:
The pH is about 8.1(!) and the total alkalinity is around 100 with the hardness being about 70 (averaged from our six community wells). Unfortunately, they didn't provide figures for Ca and Mg beyond the total "hardness".
Thus, I'm thinking that my water might be a good candidate for a pH stabilizer product...what are your thoughts on them? Are they a quick and easy fix as advertised?
thanks for the input!
