Burton Salts | 1 oz

Optimize Your Water Chemistry for Pale Ales and IPAs

Burton Salts are a traditional brewing additive used to replicate the mineral-rich water profile of Burton-on-Trent, the famous brewing region in England known for its crisp, hop-forward ales. This 1 oz container of Burton Salts provides the ideal blend of minerals to enhance hop bitterness, improve clarity, and balance the overall flavor of your beer. Perfect for brewing pale ales, IPAs, and bitters, Burton Salts give your beers the sharp, clean finish that comes from a well-adjusted water profile.

How and When to Use Burton Salts

Burton Salts should be added to your brewing water before mashing. By increasing calcium and sulfate levels, they help accentuate hop flavors, improve fermentation, and create a balanced beer with a smooth, clean finish. These salts are particularly suited for hop-forward beers but can be used in other styles where a more pronounced bitterness is desired.

Recommended Dosage

• Use 1 teaspoon per 5 gallons of brewing water, adjusting based on your base water profile and the style of beer you’re brewing. Always check your water chemistry to ensure optimal mineral balance.
