I have a feeling this may be a long shot, but here goes nothing: any chance a fellow hbt member lives in Bellingham, WA and has a water report they could share with me?

I have searched the internet and contacted the city to no avail. I'd love to pay more attention to my water but don't know my current mineral levels.

Help me Obi wan kenobi
 
It can be a pain, but they are required to provide it on request. Mentioning the Freedom of Information Act might get better results, but only as a last resort...
 
You could talk to the brewers at Boundary Bay and ask if they have it. I used to work there, and I can tell you they are very friendly and would be happy to share the info if they have it. You could also talk to the guys at North Corner brew supply, I'd be surprised if they didn't know.
 
Sweet thanks dude. I got a somewhat outdated water report from north corner. I was shocked their was nothing online as well. Lemme know if you have any breakthroughs!!

I did receive a Bellingham water report, it has everything except individual levels of Ca and Mg. Once I have these I will post an update here.
 
I got an answer on Ca and Mg. Less then 10ppm Ca and Mg should be significantly lower than 10ppm. I was told this is data from 15 years ago and probably did not change since then. All other data is avg for the last year as follows-
PH=8.8
Alkalinity=29ppm as CaCO
Iron=.01ppm
Hardness 22.9ppm as CaCO
Free Chlorine Residual-.19ppm
Chloride=3.8ppm
Sulfate=6.9
Sodium=7.5
No2/No3=.31
This water is very close to Pilsen profile water... I'm not complaining at all.
