'Mash Made Easy' version 8.45 has just been published to my website. The spreadsheet is free and complete. There is no pay version. Available in both US and Metric versions.
Only change made:
Reduces the downward pH shift impact of calcium and magnesium mineralization within the mash to better comply with the pH shift observed by D.G. Taylor in the publication titled: "The importance of pH control during brewing." MBAA Tech. Quart. 27: 131-136
Presumes that D.G. Taylor's observed mineral induced pH drop measurement was made specifically for a standard 'Congress Mash' with a water to grist ratio of 4 Liters per Kg.
The effect of this has been to reduce the percentage of Kolbach pH drop due to the addition of Ca and Mg as observed within the mash to 81% of what Kolbach measured. Kolbach did not measure the effect of such mineral induced pH drop for calcium and magnesium added to the mash until knockout, well downstream of the mash. This is an attempt by me to bring the work of Kolbach and Taylor into better sync. for pH as measured within the mash (as opposed to measurement at knockout).
