So, I'm brewing a Schwarzbier/Black Lager soon.
I've been scouring the web looking at different water profiles for this style and there isn't much information and the information available is a little all over the place.
Some say to use bru'n black dry or balanced, some say brown balanced. Some even say to use something like a Pilsner with Yellow Dry.
Brukaiser has two setup basked on undissolved or dissolved chalk:
And I've seen just about everything in between.
I was thinking maybe the following?
Or should I go with a more "known" profile?
