CALCIUM SULPHATE 1kg (food grade)

Mike — Fri, 13 Mar 2026 00:18:46 +0000

Gypsum (calcium sulphate) is used to add permanent hardness to your brewing water in the form of calcium ions, which will increase the hop perception in your beer. 1 gram of Calcium Sulphate in 1 gallon of water changes the salt levels by 61.5 ppm calcium, 147.5 ppm sulfate and adds 153.5 ppm to the hardness.

CALCIUM CARBONATE 1kg (food grade)

Calcium carbonate is used to raise mash pH. It increases alkalinity, improves yeast health, and adds essential calcium ions, all of which contribute to the desired beer characteristics, although it must be added to the mash due to its limited solubility. Generally used for making dark beers.

Antifoam 80mls

Mike — Wed, 04 May 2022 02:25:46 +0000

Provides better control of spirit distillation  Prevents loss of hop bittering substances  Improves Alpha-acid utilisation  Prevents expensive wort losses and unhygienic spillages  Maximises CO2 recovery  Increases fermentation capacity  Maximises yeast storage  Has no adverse effect on beer foam or flavour stability  Easily extracted from beer by normal filtration processes Application and rates of use: Antifoam FD20PK disperses easily in both hot and cold aqueous systems, requiring only mild agitation to disperse it completely in the foaming system. Antifoam FD20PK is effective in a wide variety of brewing and other fermentation processes, particularly in mashing, wort boiling, fermentation and maturation. For maximum efficiency and economy we recommend the antifoam be diluted with water before use, in the ratio of 1 part Antifoam FD20PK to 9 parts of cool water (1:10 dilution), the water being added slowly to the antifoam with continual agitation. For best results the diluted antifoam should be used within twelve hours of dilution. The quantity of antifoam required can only be found by experiment. In general between 100 and 500 mg/litre (ppm) of the diluted product is all that is required (500 mg/litre = 0.5 litres per 1000 litres (of foaming media). If adding post boil then sterilised water should be used.
