Target Water Profile

Black Balanced From Brun Water

Ca⁺²	Mg⁺²	Na⁺	Cl^-	SO₄^-2	HCO₃^-
50	10	33	44	57	144
David, Either of those profiles is moderately mineralized and should provide good results. They are fairly similar in their flavor ions too. I would lean to the Black Balanced profile as a first guess since it provides a bit more sodium which can help accentuate sweetness at low concentration. Don't worry too much about the sulfate content in that profile, it won't over-ride the sweetness as long as your hop bittering is appropriate. If you really want the sweetness to be pronounced, use the Black Malty profile. Don't worry too much about the bicarbonate concentration target. Its only a first guess and you are likely to have to increase or reduce that ion to get your mash pH prediction where you want it. For Sweet Stout, definitely keep the target in the 5.4 to 5.5 range and it will help smooth the overall flavor. Thanks for the support. Martin Brungard Carmel, IN

Good well balanced slightly sweet session beer with notes of chocolate in the nose and taste.
