Hello,
I'm attempting to do my first water adjustments on my next brew. I'm using Bru'n water, which I think I've got a hang of after tinkering for quite a while. However, I do not know what number I should use for my water pH when using distilled water.
I've read around and it seems like the general answer for Distilled water is 7, but the caveat is always added that it changes rapidly when exposed to air and is usually somewhere in the high 5's. I have also read that the pH of the water doesn't necessarily matter than much because its more about the grain bill. I haven't been able to find a clear and simple answer.
Any info will be appreciated!
Thanks!
