Hi all
Happy New Year belated
I know the water profile questions can be many and there are so many factors to contend with.
I am brewing over 3 years now and the past year I have been working on the water additions.
I use CC, gypsum, and L acid along with capden tablets.
Local water report here in Calgary Alberta was:
Cal 55
Mg 16
Sodium 7
Chloride 9
Sulphate 78
I do double batches of all grain and brew ales.
How do you think this tap /city water is for a pale ale or a amber ale ( one hoppy vs one malty)
Also, neighbor gave me a 5 gallon jug of spring water with the following:
Ca 63
Mg 18
Na 11
K 1
SO4 45
Cl 13
Would this water fit a certain beer profile?
Thanks so much. Lots to learn.
