Here’s a little tutorial on adjusting water profiles in the recipe with BeerSmith 3 – which I plan to release on Saturday 16 June!
Cheers!

I can not find the mash ph video you speak of in this video, can you put a link to it for us?

Will you be updating Beer Smith Mobile to work with BS3?
Yes it will be updated in late July to the BeerSmith 3 baseline.
Hi Brad,
I usually do a single mash infusion, then sparge to achieve the pre boil volume. I like to add all salts on the mash tun, and do the sparge without salts. Is there a way to set this on BS3?
On BS2, I had to calc my water on Brewers Friend in order to get the correct acid additions, and then add a note in the recipe to remember how much I had to add.
I’m getting some drastically different results between Bru’n Water and Beersmith 3 for Mash pH. To get to a 5.3 pH for the mash in Beersmith 3 for a particular recipe, it’s saying I need 10ml of Lactic Acid. Bru’n water is showing 4ml. Is this something easy that I’m missing?
I’m getting similar results as Scott. Bru’n Water is telling me to add 2.1ml of lactic acid and Beersmith is telling me 6 ml…I’m I doing something wrong?
Brad,
I am starting to use BeerSmith3. I’m new to this software, never used it before.
I see that chalk is listed as a misc ingredient and also Calcium Carbonate. Are they different? I thought chalk IS Calcium Carbonate.
Hi,
I just downloaded and started playing around with BS3 for iPhone. I really love the integration of the water calculator, but I’m wondering if there’s a way to display the final combined mineral content, rather than the mineral content of the mash and sparge water seperately. Like a previous poster, I typically add all my salts to the mash, so being able to see the combined water profile would be extremely helpful.
Thanks!
Hi. I’ve created my water profile and i select this profile when building a recipe using the mobile app, how do i get it to add recommended salts etc? i can not find a target profile within the app?
I have the mobile app but when trying to build a water profile, I don’t see the option to match a certain target profile in order to get recommended water additions like shown above.
I agree, beersmith3 should have this ability.
I want to cast my vote that there be a third button to click that just adds the water salt additions together. I like to put all the salts into all my water the night before. In the morning I heat the entire amount to my transfer temperature, then pump off the amount I need for mash, saving the rest for sparge in an hour. The BS3 program is so nice, it seems ridiculous that this option is absent, and I have to add it all together by hand…
How can I match water using mobile version?
