Water making

This is the recipe for water on my next English IPA


Ca 126; SO4 281; MG 19; Na 18; Cl 48; HCO3 66

For 8 gallons

Epsom 6g
Baking Soda 2g
Calcium Carb. 1g
CaCl 3g
Gypsum 11g

This is an exciting new direction for my brewing, creating the perfect water for the perfect brew. Over the years, I've traveled out to springs in the Ozarks to collect my brewing water. This has resulted in award winning ales, that don't win awards when brewed with local water. With a source of DI water, I can now brew the award winners every time without driving 150 miles to get water.
