    Help Me Build A Rosbust Porter

    I'll guess imo i would make my base malts 75-80% at 148F-154F and then my specialty bill add the differents to make up the OG-FG target 7% at 1.03FG so the specialty grains plus a bit of base malt @162+ to separite mashed then combined.

    https://byo.com/article/the-power-of-ph/ Good read, So the phosphates in the darker malt will lower the mash to accessible level all on its own and i might need to add calsuim just as a buffer for the yeast as my ppm are probably close to neutral good range is about 50-150ppm.

    Help Me Build A Rosbust Porter

    Yeah its RO, i would assume that its 97% or better so 10ppm TDS or less, so in other words all i would mainly have to do is adjust my ph according? and if ions all close to netrual i can jsut add salts ?
