Hi,
I just received my water report from the place I buy my bottled water from(Great Value Spring Water from Walmart, bottled by Chippewa Premium Waters Inc.). Now I don't know what any of it means. Do I need to add anything to it? Also I do both All-Grain and Extract, would I need to adjust my water when doing extract batches too? I brew more hoppy beers than anything with the occasional stout mixed in there.
Please note that I don't know what any of this means, so if I include something that isn't important please ignore it. Also if I am missing something important please let me know and I will find that on the report. The report I got from them is 5 pages long!
Alkalinity: 21
BiCarbonate: 21
Calcium: 14.5
Chloride: 19.6
Corrosivity: -2.3
Hardness, Calcium: 36.2
Hardness, Total: 56.8
Magnesium: 5
pH: 6.5
Sodium: 7.6
Sulfate: 8
TDS: 122
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
