clarification on the "total amount" of NaOH as per Brother Malcom
# Open the Stopcock and add the NaOH to the beer until pH meter reaches a reading of pH 7.0.
# Upon reaching 7.0 pH, slowly add more NaOH until pH meter reads exactly pH 8.2, keeping track of how much NaOH is added.
# Record the total amount of NaOH used to reach pH 8.2, including the amount that was needed to reach a pH of 7.0 and the additional needed to reach a pH of 8.2.
# Use the following formula to find the ''Titratable Acidity'': '''Titratable Acidity = (mL 0.1N NaOH * 0.9) / (mL beer * S.G.)'''
# The number you get is TA in grams/L.
