Tasty's water adjustments for Union Jack clone

[Ihaveabig]

I'd say you're worrying about it way too much. Do the additions & brew it. Even if you do hit 4.9 in your mash, it's not like the enzymes will go on strike. Your efficiency might go down a tiny bit, but I'm guessing this isn't for a 60bbl batch where that might actually matter. Try it, record your results, don't lose your notes, make the necessary adjustments on your next attempt. You might even surprise yourself & hit the pH dead on, even though the math is telling you otherwise. Don't sweat it, just brew it. It only hurts for a second.

Sounds good to me! Thanks for the help
I'll stick with this and buy myself a nice PH meter before my next batch

Pretty sure that this, "It depends..." and "Because you can..." make up the Holy Trio of answers to all brewing questions...

I think it deserves it's own plaque. The 4th slightly lesser brewing answer... dry hop the shit out of it.
