Hey all,
I need some guidance from a water chemistry guru.
I want to brew a Dortmunder-type lager. My water is nearly like
Munich's in profile. 205 hardness.
Without breaking down the specific components I want to get as close
to a Dortmunder profile as I can in total hardness, not individual
salts.
I have a packet of Buton Water Salts (.33oz), I am assuming that it
is intended for adding to either very soft water to water softened with
distilled water. I'm planning on using about 2/3 of the packet to get
in the ball park with my undilluted tap water.
I also have some new PH 5.2 Mash Stabilizer. Will this interfere
with the water salts?
Thanks.
