Hey everyone, new to the forum so wanted to say hello!
I’ve done a few brews with the Mrs, have played around with a few things recently like secondary fermentation, and have recently bought a Brewzilla which we’re looking forward to having a play around with.
One thing I’m interested in playing around with is water profiles.
The next beer we’re going to brew is going to be a hazy ipa, and so I’ve had a bit of a look around and understand some things, but just wanted to get confirmation from people in the know.
1.When adding to the water, these are added to the mash? (Sparge water as well)
2. I’ve found a 150ppm chloride/75ppm sulfate mix for the water, but finding it difficult to find an understanding of what ppm means, and how much this translates to for a 23l brew?
3. At this stage I’ll purchase distilled/mineral water for the next few brews, which I understand gives a 0 reading in its water?
Hoping someone can help shed some light on these things
Thanks all!
