This is interesting. My calculator's predicted mash pH doesn't change if the mash/sparge water volume ratio changes ... only if the grainbill changes ... or the salts or acid additions change. (Using distilled water as base.) Would you expect it to change with a mash/sparge ratio change...

No ... not as long as your grain bill remains unchanged. 😀

You might get some different answers here, but mine would be: if you're using RO water for your sparge, don't worry about acidifying your sparge water ... just acidify your mash water to reach your desired mash pH. With a lack of alkalinity in the RO water, the sparge won't significantly alter...

Yah, the Cream Ale was the only Schell's this time out. Wifey (a MN girl) really likes that one. No love for Summit, eh? I like the EPA, but have only tried 1 other offering that I recall.

I wanted to like Lutra. I made a Mocktoberfest with it and fermented it at about 72°F. Was patient with it and let it condition a good 4 or 5 weeks before trying it. For as long as it took the get thru the batch, I just couldn't get past that weird, musty off-flavor. I can't come up with any...
