Magnesium sulphate 500g (Epsom)

⚠️ Important: Follow the recommended dosage precisely. Check the expiry date. We recommend testing with a small quantity first.

Usage: Magnesium Sulphate (Epsom Salts) is used in brewing to lower pH slightly and add sulfate "crispness" to hop bitterness. Magnesium is a critical yeast nutrient when used in small amounts.

Features:

  • Lowers mash pH slightly (though not as effectively as calcium sulfate)
  • Adds sulfate character which enhances hop bitterness with a dry, sharp profile
  • Provides magnesium as a yeast nutrient (optimal levels: 10-30 mg/l)
  • Contributes to water hardness
  • Use sparingly - excessive amounts can have a laxative effect

Technical data:

  • Chemical formula: MgSO4
  • Net weight: 500g
  • Recommended magnesium levels: 10-30 mg/l for optimal yeast health
  • Levels above 30 mg/l may contribute dry, astringent or sour bitter taste
  • Sulfate levels: 10-50 mg/l for pilsners, 30-70 mg/l for ales, up to 500 mg/l for Burton-style pale ales

Warnings: Use sparingly as excessive magnesium sulfate can have a laxative effect. Do not exceed recommended dosage. Levels above 30 mg/l magnesium may negatively affect beer flavor profile.

Frequently asked questions about this product

What does magnesium sulphate do in brewing water?

It slightly lowers mash pH and adds a sulfate sharpness that accentuates hop bitterness with a dry profile, while supplying magnesium as a yeast nutrient.

How much magnesium should I aim for?

Around 10–30 mg/l is optimal for yeast health. Above 30 mg/l it can add dry, astringent or sour bitterness, so use it sparingly and measure carefully.

How is it different from calcium sulphate (gypsum)?

Both add sulfate sharpness, but Epsom salt lowers pH less effectively than gypsum and is used mainly to supply magnesium rather than calcium.

How should it be stored and handled?

Keep it dry and sealed, check the expiry date, and test with a small quantity first before scaling up to a full batch.
