Plaster of Paris

Plaster of Paris is manufactured by heating gypsum at 373 – 393 K or 150° C/300° F. CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O + heat → CaSO 4 ·0.5H 2 O + 1.5H 2 O (discharged as steam) On heating gypsum at 373 – 393 K, it loses water molecules and becomes calcium sulphate hemihydrate. This product is known as the plaster of Paris. However, when water is …

Does gypsum and CaCl2 require heat to dissolve in water?

Calcium chloride is hygroscopic, and readily absorbs water, and even absorbs humidity from the air. You'll have no problem dissolving that in any temp water. Gypsum is less soluble but will still dissolve easily in your mash water. Drop in the salts while you're heating your strike water and give it a few good stirs.
