I plan on brewing my first all grain batch in a week or so. I've just started researching water chemistry and I've seen several suggest not to worry too much about it at first. I suppose I'll save that until I have a few all grain batches under my belt. However, could someone please help my anxiety and see if there is anything that would be really bad for my first few attempts? Anything I must tackle?
Here are the results from Ward Labs:
pH 7.6
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) Est, ppm 24
1 Electrical Conductivity, mmho/cm 0.40
Cations / Anions, me/L / 4.0 4.0
ppm Sodium, Na 29
Potassium, K 2
Calcium, Ca 36
Magnesium, Mg 11
Total Hardness, CaCO3 136
Nitrate, NO3-N 0.7 (SAFE)
Sulfate, SO4-S 20
Chloride, Cl 44
Carbonate, CO3 < 1.0
Bicarbonate, HCO3 86
Total Alkalinity, CaCO3 71
Total Phosphorus, P 0.33
Total Iron, Fe 0.01
Thanks so much!
