I am trying to dive into Brewing Water as a whole, but its a large subject and I have a brewday I can't pass up on Saturday.
I was hoping I could get a quick look over my shoulder for the adjustments I'm planning on making this weekend.
I have a PH meter so I will be able to take some good notes for future reference, but is there anything that seems wildly off-base in terms of brewing a Dunkelweizen in the below breakdown (EZ-water calc printout)
I would be very appreciative of anyone who took the time to take a look.
