I use RO water as my city seems to adjust the mineral content of our water regularly in there released tests. Seems like every month it's different and by quite a bit. I also have a water softener so not sure how much that effects the mineral content. I would assume a ton. Anyway I use RO water from Safeway. I would assume all its parameters would be 0 except ph. This I will test next time I get water and adjust with lactic acid. Anyway wanted to confirm if this seemed correct for my additions to get my water as per Dublin Ireland for a Guinness Stout clone. I had it set to 19L and then will mix all minerals and salts prior to mashing? The additional water I will just leave as tap water for now and only worry about the mash water and the little bit I get of my batch sparge. The rest of the batch sparge top off water would be tap water unless someone thinks that will make a big difference as well?
