I just started all grain brewing, and although I'm sure my water will be fine, I'm trying to figure out what styles would be best with my local municipal water and how I should adjust the water for different styles. Normally I would search for stuff like this, but since everyone's water is different I'd like to hear your thoughts.
The numbers are:
Ca: 32 mg/l
Mg: 12 mg/l
Na: 7 mg/l
SO4: 28 mg/l
Cl: 12 mg/l
CaCo3: 130 mg/l
I filter my water through a whole-house activated charcoal filter and it removes all traces of chlorine as far as I can tell, my I don't believe my water contains added chloramine. I do still add a campden tablet the filtered water just in case.
I'm in the process of reading Designing Great Beers and trying to get this all figured out. Thanks in advance.
