Hi,
I've been brewing for over 20 years now but I have never really worried that much about water treatments. I filter my municipal water and just use that. My beers taste great! I mainly brew Belgian styles but have a few great tasting DIPA beers as well. I would like some help with the DIPA's water. I would really like to take the time and understand water chemistry and figure this out on my own, but my head is spinning. I am looking to really 'soften the palate' on my DIPA's (think Hill Farmstead). Here are some vitals:
My water report.
14# Pearl
1# white wheat
Mash temp 150
Batch sparge
Collect 7.5 gallons for boil.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
