It offers a convenient alternative to sour mashing, preserving beer mouthfeel while enhancing flavor balance. Trusted by homebrewers and professionals alike, this compact bottle delivers consistent, measurable acidity control for light-colored beers. ## Description Lactic acid can be used in place of a sour mash. When using very pale malts it is easy to push your ph well above 5.2 - 5.4 ph range. Using lactic acid you can lower the ph without going through all of the trouble of making a sour mash for its lactic acid properties. Many will argue that the addition of high lactic acid malts can make a flabby beer lacking in mouth feel, but controlling the ph with lactic acid you can avoid this. Lactic acid in light colored beer production is very common. There is no set amount to use, but a ph meter should be used and the lactic acid added till you REACH your 5.2 ph range.

I have VERY tough skin and am able to use it straight. This is always advised against. Wonderful product. Great value for the money. Saves me on professional services. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lasts long *by I***V on March 18, 2026* Good and strong. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tartness for my carrot cake brown ale *by S***K on November 27, 2023* I needed this to add tartness to a carrot cake brown ale I made. I added different amounts with a dropper to a few glasses of another beer that was a similar brown ale. Tried them all, picked the one that was the tart one, but not sour. Did the math, then added the right amount to the keg before adding the beer. Turned out perfect. ## Frequently Bought Together - Lactic Acid (88% Solution), 4oz - Anthony's Organic Oat Fiber, 1.5 lb, Gluten Free, Non GMO, Keto Friendly, Product of the USA - Anthony's Vital Wheat Gluten, 4 lb, Vegan, Non GMO, Keto Friendly, Low Carb --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/45585651-lactic-acid-88-solution-5oz](https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/45585651-lactic-acid-88-solution-5oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart Egypt* *Store origin: EG* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
