There are a few of my recipes that I'll use the water profile from the city of the type of beer I'm brewing, such as Munich, London, Burton, etc.
I'll set up the profile in BeerSmith and transfer the water addition amounts into the appropriate cells on the Water Adjustments tab. A few of the profiles require baking soda and/or chalk which causes the sheet to not indicate the amount under the sparge listing and just show "Not Recommended".
I'll take the adjusted "Total Mineral Additions" under the Mash listing for the Baking soda/Chalk and revise my BeerSmith recipe to match the lower amount and only add them to the mash.
My question is does the estimated mash pH take into account just using baking soda/chalk in the mash or is the amount that would have been in the sparge listing also calculated into the estimate?
