HI All,
I am trying to wrap my head around proper water for brewing, I just started so be gentle and I am confused. I am in my Kolsch mode and am working on perfecting one but I need some assistance. I found a recipe that styles the Koln water:
Ca 104ppm
Cl 109ppm
Mg 15ppm
Na 52ppm
So4 86ppm
Cos 152ppm
Here is the recipe page- pretty detailed: http://www.babblehomebrewers.com/attachments/article/62/koelsch.pdf
My question is what is So4 & Cos? I know the rest of the elements and I do not know how to modify my water just yet, sorry. I have attached the water report for my area, which I am currently digesting but in the meantime, what are these two random elements?? I believe Cos is Cobalt? Any advice? Am I in over my head?
