Ok guys I'm sure someone here can help me out. I'm just an old (50) firefighter, 30 years on the job, I've been brewing just over 3 years. I've brewed around 55 batches with approximately 45 of them being all grain. I'm brewing some really good beer and it's VERY consistent in taste and ABV. Actually I've won several medals. My brew system consists of 2 keggles, and a 10 gallon water cooler mash tun. I batch sparge everything because I do not have pumps yet. I also have 2 refrigerators with SCT 1000 temperature controllers that I use as fermentation chambers. I recently began trying to learn more about water chemistry and changing my water profile to try to take my beer to that so called next level. I have just bought a PH meter and I also have a scale that will weigh to the 1/100 gram. I brew mostly Blondes, IPA's, Hefeweizens, Brown Ales, Stouts, Porters, and an occasional Pale Ale. Here is my problem, all this water stuff just seams to be over my head. I need that water for dummies book LOL. I do have a water report and I'll post it below.
