How critical is the ph level for a partial mash. I have done a lot of reading and it almost seems like you need to be a chemist to get the proper pH level. Is it really critical of for my first few can I ignore it. I know from gardening that our tap water has a ph of around 7.2. Also know it has a 220ppm of dissolved solids. What they are im not sure. We have a water softener in our house as well.
Thank you,
