I have some questions regarding salt in brewing... I am looking for a way to make hop bitterness (among other flavor subtleties) more apparent in my finished brews, and I am thinking that perhaps my brewing liquor could benefit from some mineral additions, but I can't quite find definitive answers anywhere.
If I am wanting to make the bitterness stand out a bit more, is salt the mineral that I should be looking to add? And at what point should I be adding it? I have read in the mash, in the total liquor, and that I can even add it post boil or post fermentation...
Does anyone have some solid feedback regarding this? Or some published literature that might help steer me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Hollis
