Hey guys. Just wanted input on my local water profile and if I should be doing anything to it to improve the final product of my beers. I generally make APA and IPA. Sometimes DIPA too. I am working with Partial Mash recipes (50-60% grains and 40-50% dry extract). I generally have to top up my primary with about 2-4L of water and for that I also use tap with the following profile.
PH: 7.3
Calcium (Ca): 3.9ppm
Magnesium (Mg): 0.4ppm
Sodium (Na): 12ppm
Sulfate (SO4): 8.5ppm
Chloride (Cl): 8.6ppm
Bicarbonate (HCO3): 19.5ppm
I've never messed around with water profiles, so any help is welcomed. I've done some research on it, but still not confident enough to play around with it. Maybe bottled water would be better?
Thanks!
