I try to adjust my water using Brun water but I am really winging it. I pretty much try to add phosphoric acid for pH and add a bunch of gypsum for IPAs.
Right now I am mashing 12.25 lbs 1.75L Weyermann Pilsner in 4.9 gallons water and added 5 ML 85% phosphoric acid. I have a PH meter that read 3.7, first time I've used it hope it is wrong.
I planned on adding 3ML phosphoric acid to the sparge.
I can't get brunwater, Brewers friend and brewfather to come close to agreeing.
Anyone care to take a stab at my pH adjustment or give advice on brunwater?
My efficiency has been low and I suspect it'sbeen my misadjustment.
