Acid adjusting a large batch of juice is not difficult, but it does require some planning and tools to make a batch of juice. It can also be wasteful, where you are left with several ounces of a highly acidic juice no one will drink. Instead, if you make this "1% Acid Adjuster" you'll have an acidic solution you can keep on the bar and use "in real time" whenever you need it. You can make yourself a Daiquiri with pineapple juice and quickly and easily dose in 5mL of this solution to have a Daiquiri that resembles a lime Daiquiri.

✅ How it works:
Take 1 mL of the acidic solution and add to 1 oz of juice. Your juice has now increased its acidity by 1%

✅ In 1 oz of Juice/Liquid
1 mL solution = +1% acidity
2 mL solution = +2% acidity
3 mL solution = +3% acidity
4 mL solution = +4% acidity
5 mL solution = +5% acidity
6 mL solution = +6% acidity

🍋 Fruit Juice Acidity Levels 🍋
These are estimates sourced from a wide range of sources
Lime: 6%
Grapefruit: 3%
Pineapple: 1%
Oranges: 1%

While many acid-adjusted recipes and super juices call for 4% citric to 2 % malic acid, I use 4.5% citric and 1.5% malic,
