(That's water to the rest of us!) Beer is about 95% water, so if you want to discuss water treatment, filtering etc this is the place to do it!

right iv got hardish water and entering in the calculator iv got this

my alkalinity is = 171
carbonate reduction method as = crs - residual alkalinty = 100 for a stout?


CALCIUM= 127
Mg= dont no this one :roll:
SODIUM= 11
CARBONATE= 102
SULPHATE= 27
CHLORIDE= 24



so the problem is im getting is

"warning: Your intial carbonate level seems too high. Check carbonate reduction parameters"

residual alkalinty = 100 ,,,,this is set to this because i want to leave around 100 to 150 p.p.m alkalinity for a stout am i right here
