Lactic Acid Powder 50g

Lactic acid powder for adjusting the alkalinity of brewing liquor (your brewing water), lowering pH to the optimal range for enzyme activity during mashing. Correct mash pH improves extract yield, fermentability, and the clarity and stability of the finished beer. Also used in small quantities to add a clean acidity to sour beer styles such as Berliner Weisse and Gose.

Please note: Dosing rate depends on the alkalinity of your source water — test your water pH before and after addition. For a broader mineral profile adjustment, see DWB (Water Salts) Burton Style Minerals or Gypsum (Calcium Sulphate).
