Carbonate Reducing Solution (CRS)
£2.25
All but the very softest of water contains alkalinity in the form of carbonates. CRS reduces the level of carbonates without the need to boil the water. It is best used in conjunction with Brupaks Dry Water Treatment Salts.
CRS should be added to all the water intended for brewing and mixed in thoroughly.
A few minutes standing time should be allowed to release the carbon dioxide produced by the neutralisation of excess acid.
Treating brewing water is a two-stage process. The correct levels of alkalinity and calcium salts must be established.
Brupaks CRS corrects the alkalinity and the Dry Water Treatment Salts add calcium and sulphates. The amounts required depend on the style of beer being brewed. Your local water authority will advise you of the total alkalinity (in ppm).
