Add salts just to mash water or entire water volume

I've only been treating my mash water. Should I be treating all my water used in the brew day or just the mash water?

You can do it either way. Just be sure to account for what the overall effect is on the total volume. I often add all my salts for the batch to my mashing water when brewing light lagers where I want minimal minerals in the finished beer, but want elevated calcium in the mash tun.

I put it all in the mash.
