Do I need to treat my sparge RO water
I'm using Brun water calc
Looking at the Alkalinity after using 100% RO it is 13 ppm which is below the 25 ppm in the instructions
where it says It may not be necessary
Played around with sparge acidification page & got my final water alkalinity to 13 ppm in outputs to match the 13ppm in the inputs with target PH 6 & starting water PH 6 in the inputs
So am I on the right path no need to adjust sparge mashout ?
I only batch sparge but thought I'de ask you good people on here as there are some very good brewers with water knowledge from what I have read
I have A RO filter coming so will add my acid malt & salts to the mash grain then add my mashout, sparge salts to the boil
I am aiming for the yellow bitter profile first up ?
Thanks in advance for all advice
