Asked for a water report from the county...and this is what they gave me:
Alkalinity: 20-27
pH range: 8.5-8.8
Chlorine: 0.70-1.20
Sodium: 8.5
Hardness: 17.2
I've searched here for ideas on interpreting these numbers...and yup..."I No understandy" Bout the only thing I can follow is that the pH is high for lighter beers.
I'm sure there is a chart somewhere that gives the proper mineral/element/stuff to add, the amount to add/per gallon of water, in order to get a specific number/reading.
I've looked at the spread sheets and I don't have enough of the info, which I'm sure is part of the problem. This has gotta be easier for those of us who are scientific retards.
Yes, my water tastes fine.
