Hello Everyone,
I’m gradually easing into using Bru’n Water and have a few questions I’m hoping some of you can answer:
- Which water profiles would I select for the following brews?
Bitters
Kolsch
Cali Common
Cream Ale
Helles
Bocks
Dubbels
Stouts
Scotch Ales
Porters
These are the styles I generally brew (sorry there are so many) and I’m a bit overwhelmed by the variety of options in the Water Profile menu.
-
Which kinds of salts would make sense to keep on hand for these styles? I have some gypsum and calcium chloride that I’ve been using in a general fashion, but the Bru’n Water layout would suggest that I probably need to expand my options.
-
Once the appropriate water profile is selected, is it as simple as coming up with additions that would match my water profile (I use 100% RO) to the levels in the selected profile?
-
Any words of caution for someone just getting started with this?
Thanks in advance!
