    I have tested my water source for total hardness (soft), but how do I get the specific measurements of individual minerals needed for an accurate water profile?

    I'm not using municipal water so I can't get a gov't report... I need some way to test my specific water - short of paying a mint for professional testing equipment or commercial testing labs.

    Ideas?
