Making invert sugar: http://www.unholymess.com/blog/beer-brewing-info/making-brewers-invert

https://suigenerisbrewing.blogspot.com/2015/01/quick-simple-invert-sugar.html

This recipe uses reverse osmosis (RO) water. Adjust all brewing water to a pH of 5.5 using phosphoric acid. Add 1⁄2 tsp. each of calcium sulfate and calcium chloride to the mash.

Chill the wort to 64 °F (18 °C), pitch the yeast, allowing temperature to rise to 68 °F (20 °C), and ferment until complete. Dry hop the beer for five days. Rack the beer, prime and bottle condition, or keg and force carbonate.
