I need a quick lesson on water chemistry. I bought a .01g scale and gypsum, water salt, etc. I just don't know what the computations mean. I sincerely failed chemistry in high school.
So I built my first AG recipe using Brewers Friend. It computed my water chemistry for a lager at:
Target Ion Levels (ppm or mg/L):
CA+2 - 7
MG+2 - 3
SO4-2 - 5
NA+ - 2
CI- - 5
HCO3 - 14
So what does this mean? How much am I measuring out. Which was compound is which? Thank you. This should help me understand for the future. I am starting with RO water by the way.
