Bought this with the LaMotte water test kit to boost sulfate for brewing IPA. A pound ought to be a lifetime supply for a homebrewer.

Needs re-sealable bags
I have had to clip the bag shut, and then put inside another zip-lock bag. It would be nice if these came in re-sealable bags.

Essential for Hop-Forward Beers
Want your IPA's and Pale Ales to shine? Give this stuff a try and it will really bring out the hops. Of course you should get your water tested before using it.
