So I'm starting to dive into altering my water when I brew.
I couldn't find any places locally that will test water from out my tap. I did however find the regional drinking water report that had most of the mineral amounts.

Calcium : 34
Magnesium: 9
Sodium: N/A (wasn't listed... Would this really matter? the limits are from 0-150)
Choride: 26
Sulfate: 30
Alkalinity: 84

EST PH: 5.57

My only question is how relaible the report is. Would the water gain enough mineral content between the water treatment plant and my kettle that it could alter my profile?
