Notes

10% Phosphoric Acid to adjust pH of Mash water to 5.0 - 5.2 at mash temperature of 150 degrees F and Sparge water to 5.7 at sparge temperature of 170 degrees F.

Start:

...add1/4 tsp of 10% phosphoric acid in the 4.5 gallons of mash water, stir well and let sit for at least 5-10 minutes before measuring pH - should be around 5.6 ish.

Add grains and measure again after 10 minutes - pH should be around 5.0 - 5.2.

Add the Rice Syrup Solids at the last 15 minutes with the last hop addition.

Add the dry hop when racked into secondary - After 5 days rack one more time and add fining for clarity - after one week or so bottle or keg.
