I'm looking for water help. This photo is my latest water test result. What do you think in terms of brewing quality of this water? I do have a water filter which I'm going to install under my sink - that should remove all the chlorine. Thanks for any advice you can give me.

Looks pretty close to mine and I think I'm making some great beer now that I started making some small mineral additions for certain beers (mostly gypsum for hoppy beers). The sodium is a smidge high. Only a few styles in Bru'n water want that high of a sodium level. But then Bru'n Water says,
Sodium does not have an ideal range but should typically be below 100 ppm and never above 150 ppm for most beers. Low sodium is typically desirable for beer.

So you're probably okay as long as you don't add more.
