Anyone have an algorithm they use to determine the brewing salts they will require? Anyone willing to work through an example with this water profile?


pH: 8.22
Ca: 66
Mg: 17.66
Na: 18.56
Cl: 1.6
Sulfate: 15.2
Bicarbonate: 299

Thanks!

I use EZWaterCalculator: http://www.ezwatercalculator.com/

It's free and very simple to use.

What you need to add depends on your starting and what targets you want to achieve. See my recipes for recommended targets per style.
