100g DWB (Dry Water Burtonisation)

DWB (Dry Water Burtonisation) is a specialist brewing salt blend designed to recreate the classic mineral profile of Burton-on-Trent water. It helps brewers enhance hop character, improve mouthfeel, and build a crisper, drier finish in beer.

Ideal for pale ales, IPAs, and hop-forward styles, DWB gives your brewing water a professional edge.

What DWB Does

DWB adjusts your brewing water mineral balance to improve beer flavour and structure. It increases key ions that influence hop perception and fermentation performance.

It helps:

• Enhance hop bitterness and crispness
• Improve yeast health and fermentation
• Create a drier, more defined finish
• Strengthen overall flavour clarity

Burton Water Profile Style

DWB is based on the historic Burton-on-Trent brewing water profile. This water is famous for producing some of the world’s best pale ales.

The high sulphate content:

• Sharpens hop bitterness
• Reduces malt sweetness perception
• Creates a clean, dry finish

Ideal Beer Styles

DWB works best in hop-forward and pale beer styles:

• Pale ales
• India pale ales (IPAs)
• Bitters
• Golden ales
• Modern craft hop-forward beers

It is not typically recommended for malty or delicate styles like stouts or lagers.

DWB is supplied as a 100g blend for easy dosing and consistent results. Add it directly to brewing liquor before mashing or boiling.

Typical use:

• Dissolve in brewing water before use
• Adjust dosage based on water volume and desired intensity
• Use consistently across your brewing liquor for best results
