No, but it does tell you "Total Hardness as CaCO3", which is what is used to calculate CRS and DLS additions according to Brupaks website:

Re: Absolute Beginner
Oh and another thing, although down to personal choice of course, is that I bottle all my beer rather than cask. There's pro's and con's to each method, but bottling is easier for me to manager.

Re: Absolute Beginner
Hi, I went in head first with AG, although I have be making wine for many years. Actually, I,ve gone 'backwards' recently as my last 3 brews have been from kits, but thats mainly due to getting them for Xmas presents, and also when Wilco's sold off some cans for only a £1. My next brew will be AG ho...

Re: 10 Bottling Tips
1..check. When using shop bought bottled beer always give the empyty bottle a good rinse as soon as the beer is finished. This avoids the dreaded mold forming. 2..I just use soapy water. Most of my bottles have now had several homebrews in them. I only use milk as glue to stick my labels, so they no...

Re: Ball valve for coolbox / sparging
Your link isn't quite right so I can't see the actual eBay item, however I also went for what I think your pointing to, but for my boiler that I made. The mashtun I decided to buy a ready made effort at around £50 a year ago. Fly sparing is where you continually 'spray' water over the grain bed and...

Re: AG starter kit
It's a year ago now that I went through the AG gear buying process. I spent around £200, but built my own boiler using a copperkettle pre-drilled bucket and couple of tesco value kettle elements. I've also bottled from the start as I haven't room for barrels etc. The advice I found was to get a goo...

Re: 1st all grain with mash tun!
It is a steep learning curving, but thats part of the fun and keeps your interest up, well it has for me, LOL. The process is very forgiving however as long as you keep roughly on the right path. I have found it is easy to make very drinkable beers despite not getting everything right. Whick beer ha...

Lol. I'm a victim of my own annoyances.
I take a look at those yeast links and take a look for some dried yeast extract.

Usually all krausen business has stopped after a week, but this still has a decent little foam on top and blew out the airlock on the betta bottle. guess the water bath and fish tank heater doesn't work as well at these low temps, but ...

Liquid yeast
Hi, I am now up to AG#5 which is GW's Ringwood XXXX Porter, and is currently in the FV doing nicely. I did have a slight problem with slow fermentation due to it being in a cold room. Even though the FV is in a large flexible bucket with aquiarium heater, it was still only just above 15 degree's. Cl...
