in the efforts to brew the best beer possible, i've been looking into my area's water chemistry. without getting a sample actually tested i found some info online:
Hardness - 40-85
Fluoride 0 mg/L
Sodium 6.0 14.0 mg/L
Iron ND 0.75 mg/L
Manganese ND 0.10 mg/L
Lead 3.0 ug/L
Copper 0.14 mg/L
Calcium 16.1-22.7 PPM
Nitrate ND 0.05 mg/L
alkalinity 22.2-54.1 PPM
PH 7.0-8.5
i can get some more values if you need. I'm just wondering if this is good brewing water, or if i need to treat it somehow? I do filter my water.
thanks
