Alright, @brandtrepair sent a sample of his well water off to Ward laboratories, and, well, we don't know crap about water chemistry. Below is what they found. What can you tell us about this? We make a lot of IPAs, NEIPAs, and pale ales. Want to test our hand at this water chemistry stuff.
I tried putting the stuff into Bru N Water, but it didn't like some of the numbers for some reason.
Here goes:
pH 7.6
TDS 514
Electrical Conductivity .86
me/L 10.3 / 9.8
Following are in ppm
Sodium, NA 49
Potassium, K 5
Calcium, Ca 103
Magnesium, Mg 35
Total Hardness, CaCO3 403
Nitrate <.1 (SAFE)
Sulfate, SO4-S 23
Chloride, Cl 2
Carbonate, CO3 <1.0
Bicarbonate, HCO3 505
Total Alkalinity, CaCO3 416
Total Phosphorus, P .02
Total Iron, Fe .68
Educate us
