The problem with this method is that you must calculate the amount of lime to add carefully, and it must be added gradually while monitoring the pH carefully to avoid creating very alkaline water from excess hydroxide.\r\n\r\nWe would highly recommend using BrewFather for your water calculations as Calcium Hydroxide is a mainstay in the water profile analysis section.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nRates of addition are typically within the range of 2.0 to 5.0 grams per 100 litre, dependant upon the residual oxygen level in the beer, the degree of contact with air post treatment and the required shelf-life of the product.\r\n\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"css_t1\"\u003ePackage Contents:\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd class=\"css_t2\"\u003e1 x 400g Calcium Hydroxide (Slaked Lime)\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\r\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"TripleJ's","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51850122559858,"sku":"BTN-8292-400g","price":17.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/0651\/3266\/files\/a-5.jpg?v=1742440914","url":"https:\/\/szzhomebrew.com.au\/products\/400g-calcium-hydroxide-slaked-lime","provider":"SZZ Home Brew","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
