Notes

Using Hana ph meter, we want. Ph of 5.2-5.4(145-165) instead of 5.4-5.6 (room temp)
A higher ph (more basic) -> sweater beer
A lower ph (more acidic) -> drier beer
Measure ph. Add 1/2 ml of 88%lactic acid
Stir and remeasure.
It usually takes 1 or 2 ml at most for a mash of this size.
Sparge water should be 5.6 to 5.8
Pre boil ph should be around 5.0-5.5.
Mash ph was 5.41 with no adjustments.
Original sparge water ph was 7.1 or so
Can't seem to get an accurate reading with the ph meter. Arggg!
