Central Texas Water Question

[MattCinatl]

I'm just starting to tweak my water and I've run into a little roadblock. I've got the Waco water report in front of me but it doesn't list Calcium or Magnesium content. Are there any Waco area home brewers who have a full water report? Is there a way I can estimate Calcium or Magnesium content based on the rest of the water report?

By the way, I'm throwing a pity party for those of us who have to brew with this God awful water. All Texas brewers are invited!

Yeah the water up here in Fort Worth is nasty. Also full of chlorine.

You might be able to look at surrounding towns and compare their quality reports. They should have similar or the same water sources and they may publish it. I suspect the data comes from whoever controls the water supply so they may not publish it to any of the cities but it is worth a shot. Should only take a few minutes to find that out.
