Hi guys,
Just wanted some help with converting Prospect water to be something like Munich water. I have pro mash and it gives me the following information:
Munich Water
Ca: 76
Mg: 18
Na: 1
So4: 10
Cl: 2
HcO3: 152
Sydney (Prospect Water)
Ca: 14
Mg: 5.8
Na: 13
So4: 9
Cl: 27
HcO3: 44.5
Difference:
Ca: 62
Mg: 12.2
Na: -12
So4: 1
Cl: -25
HCo3: 107.5
Now my understanding is that to convert my water to be like Munich water, I need to add the calculated amounts of salts to my water to give the values listed under difference.
Is that correct?
Do my values look right?
If so, is a good idea if I add Chalk(CaCo3) to boost calcium and carbo?
Where can I get chalk? Is it standard chalk used for chalkboards?
Chloride (cl) levels are a bit too high. Would boiling the water help this? If so how will it affect the other values?
Cheers,
Jarrad
