[jwm1485]

Does anybody have a Milwaukee water report that they could post or send to me?
Thanks

Thanks I'm just starting to get into water treatment. I see you're from Milwaukee also any tips on what I will need to treat the water?

It's probably overkill considering how good Milwaukee's water is, but I usually use RO distilled. If I were using the tap water I'd neutralize the chlorine with campden and IIRC, sodium is kinda high so I wouldn't add any more sodium.

Do you think I would need any gypsum for my IPAs?

 

[JonM]

I would. The SO4 level is only 30ish mg/L and IPAs usually have 100-300, depending on how much you like.
