Water Profiles of Popular Beers

Home brewers take great care when constructing a recipe for aroma, appearance, flavor, and mouthfeel. Almost always, water chemistry is an after-thought mainly because it is confusing. I hope to shed some light on how breweries basically have similar thoughts on addressing water chemistry. There are some fairly well established rules of thumb you can apply as well.

Some Basic Concepts of Beer Water Profiles

Water chemistry is an advanced topic. The explanations provided on water chemistry are greatly simplified so that the information on the water profiles of beers are in context. pH – The measurement of pH is easy to perform – See my article on Selecting, Care and Use of a pH meter. But wait…there is more to water profiles than just pH.

Ions – the thing that impacts pH directly are the ions in the water. In your tap water, the most common ions or dissolved salts that impact brewing are: Ca +2 , Mg +2 , Cl – , OH – , CO3 -2 /HCO 2 – , SO 4 2 (for simplicity, in this article, I have left off the superscripts, the valence charge, on the ions) Positively charged and negatively charged ions are called cations and anions, respectively. The ions present can give water temporary hardness or permanent hardness. Temporary hardness is mainly due to the presence of calcium bicarbonate Ca(HCO 3 ) 2 and magnesium bicarbonate Mg(HCO 3 ) 2 . You can easily tell if you have temporary or permanent hardness by boiling water. When you boil water the HCO 3 will come apart and CO 2 will be released as a gas. The Ca and/or Mg will form either CaCO 3 (calcium carbonate) or MgCO 3 (magnesium carbonate). Both carbonate compounds are insoluble in water and will form a white precipitate – that is the white stuff that kills water heaters and at the bottom of pots when water is boiled. The well-known reaction for Ca is (similar to Mg(HCO 3 ) 2 ):

Ca +2 + 2HCO3 CaCO3 (ppt) + H2O + CO2 (gas)

Permanent hardness is a measure of the cations that remain soluble in water after boiling. The water must gently racked off the formed precipitate (calcium carbonate and/or magnesium carbonate) so that the precipitated salts do not redissolve back into the water. Water containing calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ), calcium sulfate (CaSO 4 ), magnesium chloride (MgCl 2 ) or magnesium sulfate (MgSO 4 ) will not form a precipitate and such water is said to have permanent hardness.

The most important cations in brewing are Ca, and to a lesser extent, Mg. The most important anion in brewing is CO 3 /HCO 3 (carbonate\bicarbonate). I won’t go into much detail why here but a lot of information on this can be found on the American Homebrewer’s Association website and well-respected authors who have written about homebrewing.

New Belgium, for instance, gets half of their water from Poudre River and half from Horsetooth Reservoir. Geosmin, resulting from algae blooms in the reservoir, can be a problem. They routinely conduct a taste test of their water on their testing panel for off flavors. Geosmin can luckily be removed by activated charcoal filtration.

Chlorine/Chloramine Removal

All breweries surveyed consider chlorine/chloramine removal as the most important aspect. No matter how well you balance the other ions, hit the pH and alkalinity spot on, any chlorinated compound that is not removed will result in chlorophenols. Chlorophenols impart a vinyl, plastic, medicinal, mouthwash, antiseptic-like flavor. The water source for many breweries is municipal water which is treated with chlorine or chloramine. The incoming water at New Belgium contains 0.35 ppm chlorine. New Belgium can heat the water because chlorine is used rather than chloramine. Chloramine does not dissipate by boiling. Some common methods to remove chloramine include treatment with sodium/potassium metabisulfite, activated charcoal filtration, and reverse osmosis (RO). 3 Daughters Brewing must use activated carbon filtration to remove chloramine. Firestone Walker uses municipal water but because the water is hard they use reverse osmosis (RO). RO will remove most all ions and contaminants from the water creating a blank canvas to which ions may be added.

Alkalinity and pH

Alkalinity is not the same as pH. Alkalinity is a measure of a solution (water in this case) to resist a change in pH. Solutions that have the ability to resist a change in pH have higher “buffering” capacity. Think of waters with high carbonate/bicarbonate [(CO 3 )/(HCO 3 )] content. There are water testing companies that now cater to homebrewers. You can send the water you use for brewing to be tested for alkalinity most commonly stated as ”measured as CaCO 3 .”

New Belgium is fortunate at both of their brewing locations – Fort Collins, CO and Asheville, NC – to have low alkalinity in their water at 38.5 ppm (measured as CaCO3). This means that New Belgium is able adjust their water alkalinity with ease to match the style of beer being brewed. The water at Firestone Walker in Paso Robles, CA is hard. They run their water through an RO system. The water then is close to pure water (contains almost no ions) and so has little buffering capacity – changes in pH are quick. With almost no alkalinity, the water is a blank canvas and can be easily tailored to match the style of beer being brewed. The buffering of the brewing liquor using almost pure water (at Firestone Walker) comes from the constituents in malt (starch, proteins, and naturally occurring ions) and added salts.

3 Daughters Brewing keeps the alkalinity low for light beers – think of the extremely soft water that is so well-suited in Bohemia (now Czechia) for Czech Pils – and higher for dark beers. They suggested to try alkalinity ranges (measured as CaCO 3 ) of 0-50 for pale beers, 50-100 for amber beers and 150-400 for dark beers. These ranges are generally in keeping what you find in literature. Salts/ions in Brewing that may or may not impart taste Calcium (Ca) has little effect on the flavor of beer. However, it is not possible to just add calcium. Calcium is added as calcium chloride (CaCl), calcium sulfate (CaSO 4 ) or pickling lime (Ca(OH) 2 ). Calcium is more of a requirement for the precipitation of proteins (hot break and cold break), precipitate oxalate in the mash while keeping oxalate salts in solution in beer preventing one cause of gushering, reduces the extraction of tannins, and yeast health/flocculation. It is generally agreed that the concentration of calcium should be between 50-150 ppm.

Magnesium has little effect on the flavor of beer. It is a minor mineral in brewing and required in trace amounts, usually between 10 to 30 ppm. Mg concentrations >50 ppm tends to give a sour-bitter taste to beer and >125 ppm can have a laxative effect. Magnesium salts (MgCl 2 and MgSO 4 ) can be used to avoid adding too much calcium when needed.

Chloride at low concentrations enhances the sweetness/roundness of malt. The chloride concentration is usually kept between 0-250 ppm. Higher concentrations can result in mediciney flavors due to the formation of chlorophenol-like compounds. Sodium rounds out beer flavor and accentuates the sweetness of malt – much like adding a pinch of salt when baking cookies or cakes. Sodium is usually added between 70-150 ppm. Over 200 ppm will cause beer to taste salty – think Gose.

Sulfate accentuates hop bitterness – bitterness seems drier and crisper. Generally the sulfate concentration is 50-150 ppm for standard bittered beers and up to 350 ppm for very bitter beers. When both sulfate and sodium are used together at their commended concentrations they will give beer a harsh bitterness. It is best to keep one or the other low.

filters can be used to treat water for ideal brewing water profiles.

Firestone Walker targets at least 80 ppm Ca in their beers and goes higher in beers with more calcium sulfate (CaSO 4 ) in their hop-forward beers such as (Union Jack) where sulfate helps the hop profile. In their malt-forward beers where they aim for more balanced malt-bitterness (Merlin and their other big beers), they add more calcium chloride (CaCl 2 ).

New Belgium adds different calcium salts based on the type of beer to achieve flavor profiles imparted by the chloride and sulfate. They try to try to keep CL 2 <150 ppm to prevent metallic flavors and damage to their kegs and equipment, and SO 4 <250 ppm to avoid sulfur aromas.

3 Daughters Brewing keeps the target range of the ions: Ca – 50-150 ppm; Mg – 0-30 ppm; sulfate – 50- 150 ppm for normal beers/150-350 for highly bitter beers; Na – 0-150 ppm; Cl – 0-250 ppm. The sulfate:chloride (SO4:Cl) ratio is kept at 2:1 for bitter beer; 1:2 for mild ales; 1:3 for stouts and porters. The alkalinity (measured as CO3) is 0-50 for pale beers; 50-150 for amber beers; 150-400 for dark beers.

The recommendation Firestone Walker had for homebrewers was to use water as soft as possible, use acid control for pH, and don’t get aggressive with trying to correct pH with mineral additions. I would like to thank 3 Daughters Brewing, St. Petersburg, FL; New Belgium Brewing, Ft. Collins, CO; and Firestone Walker Brewing Company, Paso Robles, CA for their insights on how they address water and for their tips on water profiles.

I started home brewing in 1991 and regrettably gave it up for a short period. I take meticulous notes (usually, unless when I don’t ) and enjoy recording the technical aspects during the brew session like pH, water chemistry, etc. I love to find out the “how come, Wally” in scientific terms of all things beer and brewing. While I appreciate the artistic and technical complexities that go into fruited / spiced and beers with different ingredients, I tend to fall back on ingredients from the provenance of the style.

You may have noticed by now, that beer is over 90% water, so saying that brewing water is important is an understatement of galactic proportions. There are many books on the subject, but they are so in-depth usually that most home brewers either lose interest or mental capacity in the attempt. So, I searched and searched and saw that there is a site or two that does discuss generalized water profiles, but not a “catch all” type of formula. There is a good reason for this…

The Importance of Brewing Water

You may have noticed by now, that beer is over 90% water, so saying that brewing water is important is an understatement of galactic proportions. There are many books on the subject, but they are so in-depth usually that most home brewers either lose interest or mental capacity in the attempt. So, I searched and searched and saw that there is a site or two that does discuss generalized water profiles, but not a “catch all” type of formula. There is a good reason for this…

All pro-brewers will tell you that each recipe should have its own water profile, each construction of malt, hops and yeast needs its profile fine-tuned to be perfect. This is seriously hard to get your head around in the beginning, I do understand, but ,similarly, you need to realize that while I am going to be giving water profiles for many styles, they may never be optimal for your particular recipe, so keep playing with it until you get it right – it takes on average 2 or 3 brews of the same recipe with different profiles to get it right in a commercial setup where we know our stuff – home brewers may take longer, but don’t get disheartened.

The plus side is that you will get your beers to the level where they don’t taste like homebrew anymore and will taste like commercial examples of the style – this is the final frontier after you have mastered the rest, including yeast control. You will most likely be shocked at the quality of even your first attempts.

One last note would be that this is a beginner guide to brewing water, I have left out much information, but it is by design… I don’t want newbie’s to get put off and I don’t want to get stuck writing a thesis either.

What is the Importance of Brewing Water Anyway?

So, I’ve come up with the following analogy to explain this –

Say you have a beautiful painting of a ship on the sea, lots of beautiful blue hues, brown and beige from the ship and oranges and pinks from the sunset in the sky. Pretty with all its masterful brushstrokes and swirl techniques…this is your beer’s flavor in all its perfection, with all the right highlights and hues and a perfect arrangement of water chemistry.

Now, you take a pair of those John Lennon-type round glasses with bright red lenses and – for dramatic effect – you take a stick of butter and rub them on the lenses. Now you put these on and you look at the aforementioned painting. All the colors are wrong, the artwork distorted and bent beyond recognition and you actually can’t make out what it originally was. The muddy lenses won’t allow you to see the beauty for what it actually is. This is the same beer recipe with the wrong water chemistry – and yes the results are just as dramatic between the two. Don’t believe me? Take an imperial stout water recipe and try to brew a pilsner with it – you’ll end up drinking a pale beer with the mineral profile of a granite quarry.

What are you doing? When you balance your water chemistry vs your recipe, you are performing a similar function of a sound engineer at a sound board. The sound engineer shifts the hundreds of keys, ensuring each note is either amplified or muted so that the overall composition is a marvelous piece of art – the difference between a platinum selling artist and your pot-head buddy in his garage!

The Aspects to Consider in Water Chemistry

This is the bit about the different elements in brewing water – I’m going to keep this as simple as absolutely possible.

Calcium – 50 to 200ppm (Added generally through Gypsum or Calcium chloride). This is the most important item on the list. This element is responsible for actually lowering mash pH in the first place. It’s also crucial for yeast health and a clear beer. The higher the amount, the more easily the yeast flocculates. It is also essential for enzymatic processes in the mash.

Magnesium – 0 to 30ppm (Added through Magnesium Sulphate). This is another element that is one of the primary contributors to lowering mash pH, although not as well as calcium. It is also a yeast nutrient. The minimum amount is zero in the mash water because all barley wort contains loads of this stuff, but I can tell you from experience that adding even a small amount of magnesium (in the form of Epsom salts or MgSO4) to your mash does great things for the flavor of your beer.

Sulphate – 50 to 400ppm (Added through Gypsum or Magnesium Sulphate). The first major flavor component, many brewing software types will tell you this increases “bitter” in a beer, but it’s a little more complicated than that. It’s a combination of either sharpness, bitterness or dryness in the flavor perception, as well as increasing the hop character in beers. The only time I would go over the 250ppm limit is if I’m looking to do a “to style” Dortmund export or something similar. You’d be forgiven for thinking an IPA needs more, but it doesn’t, as it is one of the contributing factors to an IPA’s bitterness sticking to your tongue. Most award winning IPA’s have a flash of skull-rattling bitterness and a clean hoppy finish that encourages you to drink more = less than 200ppm. If it lingers on the tongue too long, you’ll lose on drinkability. Another point to ponder, is that despite it saying that the minimum requirement is 50ppm, I forget it altogether if I’m brewing continental pilsners and other similar lagers, due to the fragile flavor profile of those beer styles and the hops implemented.

Chloride – 0 to 200ppm (Added through Calcium Chloride or Salt). This is the other major flavor component – it provides a fuller, rounder or sweeter perception to the beer, and is used to either increase malt flavor perception or to temper the effects or sulphates (known as the sulphate to chloride ratio, which we will discuss shortly). There are brewers who take the levels of chlorides up to 300ppm or more, but I would not for various well-informed reasons, so I recommend you don’t either. It’s a very important element for malt forward beer styles.

Sodium – 0 to 150ppm (Added through Salt or Bicarbonate of Soda) Sodium, sodium, sodium – what to do with you? Sodium is an element that is sometimes unavoidable when correcting water chemistry and can lend a sweet quality to certain beers, but can become salty when you approach or exceed 150ppm. It does lend a certain well rounded character to pale beers as well, but much better to keep the concentrations lower than 100ppm unless you are absolutely sure of what you’re doing.

Bicarbonate – 0 to 250ppm (Added through Bicarbonate of Soda, usually) This is the primary ingredient that stands between your stout being wonderfully chocolatey and rich and a one-dimensional cold espresso disappointment. When you need an alkalinity buffer, this is your go-to addition. It does make hops overly bitter in a harsh sort of way, so avoid it completely in highly hopped beers as well as pale beers (it can taste harsh on its own too in beers below 7 SRM).

Sulphate to Chloride Ratio

This is the ratio between the two major flavor ions we discussed earlier. To keep matters simple, suffice it to say that you actually really need at least 50ppm of either for a noticeable difference and never max out both values as it will cause a minerally taste in your beer (super strong beers can handle this, but most won’t). The subject of whether to make a beer sulphite forward, chloride forward or balanced is highly dependent on what kind of beer you’re trying to make. If hops play a starring role, go for sulphites. If it’s malt, go for chlorides. If both hops and malt are to be highlighted a balanced profile is preferred. It’s the level of the ratio that makes all the difference in which aspect is going to shine, but remember that adding, for example sulphur, won’t just highlight hops, but also make the beer seem drier. It’s one of those things you have to play with to get it right. When I wasn’t sure – back when I started asking these questions – I simply added small amounts of a solution of either gypsum and water or calcium chloride and water to a glass of beer to figure out which way to go the next time I brewed the same recipe.

To illustrate the difference between the two, let’s look at 2 different recipes for the same beer style and figure out which way to go. I usually use a beer like cream ale for examples, as it’s an easy beer to make and can be interpreted many different ways:

Recipe 1: Cream ale with corn meal

• 80% 2 row malt • 20% corn meal or flaked corn • 20 IBU hops (dry hopped as well) • 64.4°C mash temp

With the above recipe, I have the fact that the corn will lend an element of sweetness, but I want this to be a cream ale that has a definite hop character. I have to drop to the mash temp and make this beer sulphite-dominant to make sure I end up with that fresh hop character and typical crisp finish required of cream ales. Sulphite/chloride ratio of about 1.5 (slightly bitter)

Recipe 2: Cream ale with rice and sugar

• 80% 2 row malt • 15% rice flakes • 5% sugar • 15 IBU hops (bittering only) • 66°C mash temp

This recipe, on the other hand, is already going to be very dry and crisp due to the sugar and the rice. In this case I might opt to increase the mash temperature and to make the beer a malty chloride-dominant brew. Sulphite/chloride ratio of about 0.6 (very malty)

As you can see, there is no one-rule-fits-all scenario. You have to think about what you want to create and there are no wrong answers as long as the beer tastes good when you’re done.

Dealing with Mash pH

Dropping the mash pH is as simple as either increasing the calcium content, or actually adding acid to it for paler styles. For the purposes of beginners (and this article) I would ask that you do 2 things:

1. Stick to the amount of calcium in the recipes / formulas given for now. 2. BUY A (%#!@!) PH METER!!!…and measure your mash pH 10 minutes after doughing in.

ONLY add acid if absolutely required.

3. When it comes to using acid, try using orthophosphoric acid if you can get hold of it. Lactic acid if you can’t. 4. Buy another pH meter – you can’t work without these things.

PRO TIP: Only pale and amber beers benefit from a pH of 5.2 to 5.4. To get your brown ales and stouts to have that rich flavor, aim for a mash pH of around 5.6 to 5.8. Along with residual sugars, it’ll help the final beer pH finish higher, softening that roast element into something luxurious and wonderful.

Water Profile Recipes

I have opted to use the 2008 BJCP guidelines, as they are more familiar to most than the new 2015 version. Coupled with that, Jamil Zainasheff’s book “20 Classic Styles” can be used along with the following guidelines. If you brew it and it doesn’t come out the way he describes in the book, the water chemistry is wrong and you should try again. Also, dodging the subject of alkalinity and residual alkalinity like a plague, I have expressed alkalinity as a value of bicarbonates, easily added to soft or RO water through the addition of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda). If you have water that exceeds this amount for the style you are trying to make, ditch it for a few bottles of RO or distilled water and either dilute or build from scratch. This will however bring up the subject of sodium – if so and in doubt, just try to aim for a sodium level below 100ppm unless stated otherwise.

A note on calculations and water additions:

• I am assuming you are using software to calculate your water – no one in their right mind would start off trying to manually calculate water chemistry. For this simplified version, I have opted to use BeerSmith 2 water profile calculator. • Due to the low volume of the water homebrewers use and the fact that brewing water chemistry generally uses the same sorts of compounds, you are going to be scraping around so many small amounts of powders, it would make even the most hardened cocaine addict squirm. If you are struggling with getting the measurements right, increase the volume of water you are treating to make it both easier and more accurate – it is far easier to treat 50 gallons of water than it is to treat 5. • Always look at the ABV and color range of your intended brew, if it’s on the higher side of the style, aim for the higher mineral content specified below, if it’s lower, aim lower. • On many forums I have seen people arguing over the amount of residual minerals actually going into the beer and enhancing the flavor, due to boil off, mash absorption, etc, etc.

One golden rule: Less minerals is always better. When you calculate, calculate for the batch size alone i.e. you want to make 5 gallons, so you calculate on 5 gallons of water alone and never mind about the sparge. The reason is that when you boil, you concentrate everything. I’d rather you learn to err on the side of caution and get the hang of it first, instead of overdoing it and being unhappy with your result. You beer will taste great, I promise!

Let’s work through a few examples to help you to use these water profile recipes.

 Scenario #1: I Want to Brew an American IPA, and I Want to Use Reverse Osmosis Water.

So I want to make a beer with, say, 70 IBU’s of bitterness, about 6 to 7% abv and the color is roughly amber. The alcohol content, firstly, and the color, secondly, ensure that I can aim for the high side of the IPA spectrum.

Reverse Osmosis (Starting Water) Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 0 0 0 0 0 0

American IPA (Target Water) Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 MIN 50 0 0 100 0 *50 MAX 150 10 50 400 100 *150

*These are recommended norms, but I would omit them entirely for this style.

My Preferred Additions for 5 Gallon (19 liter) Batch:

• 5g Calcium Sulphate (Gypsum) • 1g Magnesium Sulphate (Epsom Salts) • 2g Calcium Chloride

  My Water After Treatment Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 90.3 5.2 0 160 51 0

This water profile makes sure all bases are covered for an American IPA.

Scenario #2: Munich Helles With Normal Tap Water (Dechlorinated, Quite Hard)

So you have water that’s not ideal for a Munich Helles…what now? Let’s have a look. Remember that everyone’s tap water is different, so you will need to add your own numbers for your tap water.

Tap Water in Antwerp, Belgium Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 90 11 37 84 57 76

1D. Munich Helles Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 MIN 50 0 0 0 50 0 MAX 75 10 30 50 100 50

First thing to do, due to the bicarbonates, it to dilute the tap water with reverse osmosis water 40% (RO) to 60% (Tap) – that will get us to:

Tap Water Diluted Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 56.3 6.9 23.1 52.5 35.6 47.5

My preferred additions after dilution for 5 gallon (19 liter) batch:

• 4g Calcium Chloride

My Water After Treatment Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 92.1 6.9 23.1 52.5 99.1 0

This water will complement a Munich Helles quite nicely – the little bit of sodium still in the water will barely be noticeable, if anything will give it just a hint of sweetness.

Use store bought water if your tap water is too far gone.

Scenario #3: Bohemian Pilsner with Normal Tap Water (Dechlorinated, Very Hard)

You’re sitting with water that’s more suited to a strong stout than anything else.

Tap Water in Dublin, Ireland Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 115 4 12 55 19 200

2B. Bohemian Pilsner Ca Mg Na SO4 Cl HCO3 MIN 30 0 0 0 50 0 MAX 50 5 10 50 100 50

Step 1: Dump the bucket of tap water on the lawn

Step 2: Go to the shop and buy reverse osmosis water

Step 3: Continue as in first example.

I’m sure you get the general idea by now. If not, feel free to post in the comments section and I’ll help you out with a few more. Highly recommended further reading:

I hope these formulas assists all those yet to take the plunge into the final frontier in the quest for the perfect pint. This really is the last step in perfection and is absolutely essential to those wishing to go commercial. I wish you the best of luck…
