Calcium Sulphate Gypsum 100g

A brewing additive to compensate for water deficencies for beers
AMS 500ml    Also know as (crs) (Carbonate Reducing Solution)

All but the very softest of water contains alkalinity in the form of carbonates. AMS reduces the level of carbonates without the need to boil the water. It is best used in conjunction with  Dry Liquor Salts.

Ams 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.

Ams corrects the alkalinity and the Dry Liquor 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).
