Hello all, I have looked at several water treatment spreadsheets and either cannot understand them of get them to recommend water treatment. I intend to brew - next - a 4% hoppy beer using 9.75 lb of low colour pale malt and 1.5 lb of low colour crystal malt. Mash will be 90 minutes and is full volume start vol 32 litres final volume 22 litres. Hops will be 100 gm Pacific Jade added 5 minutes before end of boil.
Water analysis
hardness 236 as CaCO3
Ca 80
chloride 65
sulphate 107
pH 7.3
Mg 9
nitrate 17
alkalinity 115
I have gypsum, CaCl2, MgSO4
I will treat water with 20 ml AMS and a campden tablet and expect to increase SO4 to ~250 and chloride to 100
Many thanks in advance.
