I’ve gotten myself very confused and aggravated with trying to figure out salt additions and hoping for some guidance. Im wanting to do a half batch of a Czech style Pilsner and was trying to figure out the salts with
Brewers Friend , this is what I’ve come up with
Right at 5 gal. of RO water for both mash & sparge (1.5Q/per lb of grain)
4.22 lb of Pilsner malt , 3 oz of carapils & 1.5 oz of acid malt
1.3g of Ca (23)
.7g of Mg (3.7)
.3g of so4 (23.9
With all this put into BF water calculator it’s showing a PH of 5.44
Does this look somewhat right or am I way off ??
I have looked at the water primer post but still not 100% sure especially when doing half batches of 2.5 gallons.
