Target Water Profile

I pre boil the Tap Water to reduce the salts for about 30 minutes. My Source Water: Search in water profiles for: "Las Vegas, NV 2020" Beer has a nice body and great flavor. No off flavors or extra harsh bitterness.

Notes

I use 6.6oz for my Cornelius keg if priming with corn sugar in the keg - 12 days - then cold crash and cool at 40F for 24 to 48 hours.
Otherwise i use 35Psi Co2 for 72 hours at 40F in my Kegorator.
