Calcium

Postby Linny » Sat Nov 03, 2012 9:34 pm

Ive been suggested that i add calcium to my next batch via gypsum or AKA calcium sulfate dihydrate (aparently my water is low in calcium). Im guessing the fertiliser versionof gypsum is different to the HBS.... Going to Woolies is way easier, does powdered milk work ??? since its long life ?

And do you really need to add a Multi-V/VEGEMITE to a TPW ?

I know dumb idea's .... but i gotta ask ...curiosity

I wouldn't think you'd need to add calcium to this sort of wash TPW is just a 1 gen wash to make a neutral spirit just follow the recipe and you'll be right , I don't add any vitamin b just plain old tomato paste will have all the gear you'll need :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Cool. I got my first tpw :handgestures-thumbupleft: under way. So far so good. Just slow... Was just thinking out loud... ALSO taste tested my first run today.. Gave it 3 days blended with essence... Pretty happy with results
