Okay, cool. I'll probably pick up the MW102 at some point though I think.

There was a lot of Best Pils contaminated with acidulated malt. That is what they said.

that certainly is interesting. the impact I realize with PH with avangard is as if there 2-3% acidulated malt in there.

Like, "a lot" or one single lot of malt? Half joking, half serious.

I am see more mini-mashes the night before my brew days, until I have enough data and confidence to stop doing those. It is not that hard.

According to some I shouldn't bother with pH measurements at all.

Nothing to feel bad about.
