Hi,
I am a beginner brewer, but know a few things about the brewing process having already worked in a brewery.
I am currently trying to establish if the water source I want to use, is viable, or can be treated in a way to obtain a water profile that can work! Also, what tend to be key features of water that make certain geographical areas produce a certain style of beer better?
This is what I have to work with:
Calcium (ppm) - 55.10
Chloride (ppm) - 819.70 (this is ridiculously high)
HCO3 (ppm) - 92.10
Magnesium (ppm) - 69.40
Sodium (ppm) - 407.70 (again ridiculously high)
SO4 (ppm) - 83.00
pH - 6.80
what style would best suite this or is closest to this?
How can I obtain lower concentrations?
Thank you in advance for any advice!
