    yeast washing and sodium metabisulphate

    Hi, my next brew is going to be BIAB Golden Ale and I thought I'd get and get my head slightly round the water profile I'll be using. I've found this as a report of the water I'm using...

    Hey, figured jump right into a question and intro, from what I've read on here everyone seems happy to help each other out and a bit of banter. Haven't frequented a forum for a few years so it'll be good to have somewhere to learn aswell and not just post random shit. I'm here in Adelaide...
