So after reading this article (Electrolyte-Enhanced Beer: READ HERE, it is freakin' awesome) I was curious if I could do something similar at home. Pedialyte came to mind and thought that since it was mostly water the might work. I know this wont make the most delicious beer in the world but would help me fight a hangover as once I catch a buzz I forget (don't care enough to) to hydrate .
My plan, if I ever do it as its just crazy, is to top off with pedialyte to reach the desired amount like in a typical extract brew.
My question: Does anything think that electrolytes would get killed in primary fermentation? I am no scientist but I was thinking the residual sugars could get fermented away, would leave all the electrolytes, and I would hop the heck out of it to cover off flavors.
Any feedback, thoughts won't life, etc are welcome!
