  • 52 pH Stabilizer 1lb

    52 pH Stabilizer 1lb
    5.2 is a proprietary blend of food grade buffers that will lock in your mash and kettle water at a pH of 5.2 regardless of the starting pH of your water. It is safe for your mash and will not add any flavours to your beer. It will optimize the enzymatic activity of your malt, help clarify your wort, and often raise your starting gravities. In the boil it will give you consistent hop usage.
