BrewLab® Basic Water Test Kit – Essential Analysis for Home Brewing

Quick and Reliable Water Testing for Consistent Brewing Results

The BrewLab® Basic kit provides home brewers with a fast, reliable method to analyze the key mineral components of their brewing water. By testing seven critical parameters, brewers can optimize their water chemistry to enhance flavor, consistency, and overall beer quality. This kit is ideal for hobbyists and small-scale brewers who need a simple, cost-effective solution without sacrificing accuracy.

Test for 7 Essential Factors

  • Chloride
  • Sulfate
  • Alkalinity
  • Total Hardness
  • Calcium Hardness
  • Magnesium Hardness
  • Sodium

 

For rapid and precise pH verification in both wort and finished beer, the Hanna pH Tester for Beer delivers rugged performance tailored to brewery quality assurance protocols. Additionally, in facilities where sugar content monitoring complements water chemistry, the Hanna Digital Refractometer for Beer provides accurate refractive index measurement critical to mash and fermentation consistency.
