Hi all,
I have just received my water report back from Murphy & Son. Im a little confused as to what the terminology means.
it says add
21.69 ml AMS into all liquor
15.28 g DWB into mash.
I understand the mash addition or DWB but do i have to add the AMS into the mash and sparge water? so 21.69ml x 2 = 43.38ml total?? HELP!!!!

Re: just received water report
You've answered your own question:
"AMS into all liquor".
Reducing the pH of the sparge water (to less than 6 hopefully) will remove all concerns of "over-sparging" and perhaps extracting excessive astringent tannins from the grain. (21.69ml per; whatever unit they talking about, litre, 10 litres, 20 litres, … ?).

Re: just received water report
The report should say something like "AMS (CRS)- 8.75 ml per 25 lts of liquor to be used, all liquor to be treated"
So add together your mash volume, sparge volume and any boiler top up to get the total liquor and calculate the total AMS needed.

Hi Juffer.
This may be an idea as Orlando suggested to me when I was in the same position as yourself.
Log on to JBK links at the top of the forum, have a look at water treatment, then go to brewing calculators and select Graham’s water treatment calculator.
Just fill in the boxes with the information of your report you have been given and compare what Murphy’s have given you.
It has an added benefit of you choosing the type of beer you wish to brew.
I found it very helpful.
