I finally got a Hanna PH meter and I'm looking forward to getting my mash PH dialed in. My first go at it and I had similar PH reading to my old meter that I dropped and broke. My target PH using EZ-Water was 5.4 and I ended up around 4.8 twenty minutes into the mash. Phosphoric acid 85% was used in addition to salts. Any one else having issues with their target mash PH? I recently purchased BeerSmith, so maybe their calcs are more accurate. EZ Water is nice, but I don't like how you add the grains to the program. I haven't had a water test completed in a couple years, so the starting PH might have been lower and the Phosphoric brought me to low. What do you think? Thanks in advance.
