I am trying to learn about adding salts and adjusting pH. The best way I know to do that without buying an RO system is to start with a known water source--distilled.
Should I be concerned with the pH of the water? I've assisted another homebrewer and he seems to add a lot more salts that I am adding (he uses RO water). Should I be adding more to adjust pH? I use BeerSmith3 and getting familiar with adding distilled water and matching a profile to know how much of which salts I need to add. I do not know how to find the pH I should be at and when.
Any help you can provide would be great!
