Target Water profile is optional, adjust water to your taste with minerals. If you are using tap water then ensure it is treated with Campden to remove Chlorine and Chloramine.

Target a Mash pH of 5.2-5.4. You can use acidulated malt or lactic acid to adjust the mash pH. If using Reverse Osmosis water this would require 6-8 grams of 88% lactic acid added to the mash or 0.5 lb of acidulated malt in the malt bill.
