Description
Otherwise known as Epsom Salt. Magnesium Sulphate is used as a salt in brewing to adjust the ion content of the wort and enhance enzyme action in the mash to promote a desired flavour profile in the beer. Generally used at half the ratio of Calcium Sulphate (Gypsum), it helps to add a crispness to the hop bitterness. Magnesium Sulphate has a nearly neutral pH level averaging 6.0 and is also beneficial as a yeast nutrient in small amounts.
