Hello all,
I am trying my best to hop onto the Bru'n Water train. I have been using Beersmith's water adjustment tool for quite some time. I am used to it and would like to keep using it. I have Bru'n Water's excel sheet and I am now going to use Bru'n Water's mineral profiles inside Beersmith's software. Immedeatly, I found that they greatly differ in what mineral content is acceptable for a certain SRM or what sulfate:chloride ratio makes it bitter, balanced, or malty. For example, Bru'n water's Amber full profile input in to Beersmith accounts for a balanced beer and good for an SRM up to 9 according to beersmith, but in Bru'n water this profile is good for an SRM up to 17 and is made for a full, malty beer.
I guess my actual question is, has everyone been using Bru'n waters water profiles related to color and full, balanced, dry aspects with great success?? Thanks.
