I emailed the Gold Coast council and they sent me a link to this water report.
http://www.goldcoast.qld.gov.au/documents/bf/DRINKING_WATER_QUALITY_ANNUAL_REPORT_WEB.PDF
I have never read a water report before and have not yet learned much about water chemistry, so I'm not entirely sure what to make of it.
The figures on here all look quite low compared to brew water specs I've seen before, for example; calcium is 14ppm, while John Palmer says in How to Brew the optimal range is 50-150ppm.
Can any one offer any advice on what to do with this info?
My next brew will be an all grain BIAB Pale Ale. Will I need to add anything to the mash?
Thanks for your help
