Hello,
We are running into issues with our mash pH being too high and not getting correct sugar conversions (mash pH above 6). In researching the issues it appears that we can use calcium chloride in the mash to help bring the pH down however I was looking for a way to actually add something to the mash in water in the HLT. I am Not sure if I can use the same calcium chloride or if there is some other acid I could use. So, basically looking for something to add to water in HLT that will work to lower pH where I can mash in and sparge with same water. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
