Notes: Density of 85% phosphoric acid = 1.685-1.689 g/ml
(grain * 30.262 * change in pH) / 14.75 = ml 85% phosphoric acid to change boil pH
Adjusting
Swapped out 1 lb Vienna for 1 lb White Wheat.
Was trying to remember why some may mash/boil higher and lower pH at end of boil. Alpha Amalase is more active closer to 5.6 and DMS is boiled off easier at high pH. Lower pH is desired in boil for protein coagulation.
Kai: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/attachments/1437746446595-jpg.292063/
"There is no uniform method for how the pH is used during the process.
The Bavarian method is to mash relatively high with a pH around 5.5 and keep it at that value in the boil until break formation. Then brewmaster treat it differently as well. Some adjust to 5.2 immediately after the break to encourage an even brighter end product, some do it 10-15 minutes before the end.
In Germany there is a trend of mashing much lower, some as low as 5.2, with a minimal dose in the boil.
These all are a matter of preference and style.
In the end they all end up with wort at 5.1-5.2 hitting the fermenter and all use Sauergut. It is "de rigeur""
http://forum.germanbrewing.net/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=207&start=10
"Regardless of style or maltster, the same principle applies:
As the pH increases, protein excretion improves and hop utilisation increases. That's why one is interested in conducting the boil at a pH of 5.4-5.7, seldom outside that range.
Towards the end of the boil the pH naturally has dropped a little and we now lower the pH into the pH 5.2-5.1 range to aid focculation of the proteins, improve taste, colour and biological stability. Usually this is done 10 minutes towards the end of the boil. That's how you get the egg soup effect.
It's quite straightforward"
http://forum.germanbrewing.net/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=174&start=10
"That is not necessarily the main reason for performing a late- or post-boil pH adjustment. DMS removal is aided by boiling at higher pH. My research indicates that German brewers tend to target a modest kettle pH of around 5.4 and dose with saurergut late in their boil to bring the wort pH down several more tenths to suit the yeast and the resulting beer flavor."
http://www.milkthefunk.com/wiki/Dimethyl_Sulfide ctrl+f pH
So boil @ higher pH to reduce DMS, lower pH to ~5.0-5.2 in last 10 minutes for yeast and protein coagulation.
Calculation for adjusting boil pH:
Grain Weight*34.25*∆pH/11 = ml 88% lactic acid to adjust wort
10.5lb, 5.4->5.2
10.5*34.25*(0.2/11) = 6.5386 ml

Notes: This was a 10 gallon Spartan IPA recipe at 6.25%. I changed to 15 gallons without changing anything else. Now it's 4.25%, This also raised the IBUs from 12.25 to 15.6 that doesn't make sense to me.
Also used Cablecar yeast to make it a lager. |

Notes: Prepared the Mash Tun by filling with 3 gallons of hot water ~ 130 degrees (left for 30 minutes). Poured water from Mash tun into kettle and bring to 4 gallons - heated to 170 degrees. Poured water into mash tun, added grain and stirred for 5 minutes. Temp at ~ 157 degrees. Sealed. At 30 minutes, temperature - 156 degrees.
At 60 minutes, drain liquid in mash tun to grain bed, add 1 gallon of 170 degree water, stir lightly, and drain to grain bed, repeat twice more. Drain completely into kettle. ~5 gallons of wort from sparge
Begin boil. All adds on schedule. OG 1.061
Aerated. Ended up with 4 gallons final for fermentation. Did not add water.
Add first dry hop (4/22) (8 days) 0.5 oz of Simco and 0.5 oz Citra. SG - 1.009 (abv - 6.9%)
Plan to add x oz of Citra for final 4 days. Bottled 5/7.
Future: during sparging, gently prise the grain away from the wall to avoid potential coning. First gallon direct, 2nd- prise, 3rd - prise, 4th direct. Will provide greater extraction potential. |
