I have well water and live on an old Indian Spring. My water is limitless and great tasting, but how is it for beer. Also missing seems my Bicarbonate levels.
Coliforms and Fecalforms= Absent
Turbidity= 0.35ppm
Color= 1
Odor= N.D.
pH= 6.8
Calcium= 20.7ppm
Mag=1.5ppm
Hardness=57.9 (CaCO3)
Nitrate=1.0ppm
Nitrite= 0
Sulfate=10.1ppm
Sodium=5.1ppm
Chloride= 4.6ppm
Copper= 0.12ppm
Iron= 0.02ppm
Mang= 0
So based on this I have water on the upper range of soft? If I am going to add gypsum for an IPA what # am I affecting?
