Distilled water

Hey Hopfen

Check out Air,water,ice.com...... They have a really good one called the Typoon. The one I had was a 75g per day 5 stage....They have some of the best prices I have seen on RO systems.....

Here is the one I had....It would take input water at 600+ tds and reduce it down to 0-5.....of course that took a toll on the filters.

I didnt want to start a new thread so im hoping this is ok.

I just had my water tested with Ward Labs and was hoping I can get some advice/insight on my water profile. I tend to brew IPA.

PH 7.7
Total Dissolved Solids 173
Electrical Conductivity 0.29
Cations/Anion 2.6/2.5

PPM
Sodium, NA - 31
Potassium, K - 4
Calcium, Ca - 19
Magnesium, Mg - 3
Total Hardness, CaCO3 - 60
Nitrate, NO3S - 0.1
Sulfate, SO4S - 7
Chloride, Cl - 48
Carbonate, CO3 - <1
Bicarbonate, HCO3 - 39
Total Alkalinity, CaCO3 - 32
Total Phosphorus, P - 0.11
Total Iron, Fe - <0.01

 

This is very nice low-alkalinity water. You can treat it almost as if it were distilled or RO. For IPA's you will generally want to add some Calcium Sulfate and maybe a few oz of acid malt to get the mash pH where you want it to be. Of course, the exact amounts acid malt will depend upon your initial grain bill and how much sulfate you like in your IPAs. Cheers!
