Product Details

Calcium Chloride lowers mash pH; 1 gram per gallon adds 72 ppm calcium, 127 ppm chloride.

Calcium Chloride is hydrated calcium chloride used to correct mineral deficiencies in water which is to be used for brewing. It is used in demineralized or soft to medium hard water to increase permanent hardness. Used as directed, Calcium Chloride is effective in eliminating the variations in composition often encountered in water from surface sources. It will help establish proper pH of the mash and the wort and provide sufficient calcium ions essential for enzyme function, kettle protein coagulation and yeast metabolism.

A gem of a site

I am actually a cheese making, not a brewer. My search for cheese making products led me to Northern Brewer where I was able to buy the needed Calcium Chloride granule (that will last a life time), along with a few other items I needed. The Calcium Chloride is EXACTLY what I expected. Now I can create my own mix at any % solution I want. This is the best price I found searching high and low.
The only reason I gave my experience a 4-star is because of my order experience, not because of the products. it took a text message after waiting for an email for 4 days, for me to get an acknowledgment of my order and a confirmation for tracking. If the response were a couple of days, I would give Northern Brewer a 5-star review.
Regardless, the products are great, again good value for the money, I would buy from them again.

Good stuff, a little late.

If you know what this is then you know what it does, so I'll review my order. Decided to dabble into water chemistry and ordered this product on a Friday intending to brew the next weekend. Didn't get it in time for that. It took almost a week for it to ship and a couple days to get here. But it's exactly what it says, came all in one piece and with a couple other chemistry bits. Good prices, much better than Amazon. Honestly the only complaint is the time for processing my order, which wasn't that big of a deal.

Big bag of CaCl for a good price.

I Received a good sized 1 lb bag of Calcium Chloride that has worked well to adjust PH and mineral content of my wort for several batches so far.. I use about a third of an oz/5gal batch, so It will last a while.

Is this dihydrate or anhydrous?

Richard O.

I do not know how to tell the difference and the package does not say. I have not used it yet and I have not used it in the past

The version I received was branded BSG, not LD Carlson as pictured. The BSG website refers to their calcium chloride product as "hydrated", so I think that means it's dihydrate.

How does the granularity of this CaCl compare to that sold under other brands such as Ball® Pickle Crisp or Mrs. Wages Xtra Crunch? Yep, makin' pickles.

Northern Brewer

Same size, so you should be good.

Hi. I'm spraying Easter Lilies for leaf scorch. I'm wondering the amt. of C. Ch., per gal. of h2o, that equals 200ppm? Thanks

Northern Brewer

I think it's around 72 ppm per gram of calcium chloride per gallon.

Northern Brewer

Hello Mike,

Thank you for choosing Northern Brewer! That calculation can get somewhat complex depending on the source of your calcium chloride and its concentration/molarity, and if you want 200ppm of the calcium or of the chloride. If you are using the calcium chloride that we sell, you will need 2 grams of product to get your calcium levels up to just under 200 ppm, this will also contribute 254 ppm of chloride to your. I am assuming that you want the calcium from this solution for your plants to help with the scorching. Hopefully this is already not an issue from N scorching. So realistically, you could mix this into solution, and increase the temperature, the chloride will then volatilize out of solution if I am not mistaken. This might not be completely true, it has been a few years since received my plant biology degree so I am a little bit rusty! For a more definite answer, I might contact a local master gardener, or local extension service. I hope that this is helpful!
