Mash pH and grain question

[The_Bishop]

Does anyone know how BeerSmith classifies grain as far as mash pH goes? In Bru'n Water, as you enter the grain you choose base/crystal/roast etc. Trying to figure out how Beersmith classifies grain as far as mash pH calculations go.

 

[EvalynDibbert]

Toasted or roasted grains often lower the PH significantly, while malt bases have a milder effect.

Beersmith will give you an estimate for PH but you will have to measure it to know for sure. It's the same for nearly every recipe builder software ... they give estimates and its up to you to determine the actuals.
