Note from Rob Gallagher (Utopian Rebels Světlý Ležák recipe): I use reverse-osmosis (RO) water to start. For this beer, I basically just add calcium chloride until I have 50ppm of calcium (Ca+) for yeast health. Other than that, you want the water as soft as possible.

Notes

Beta amalyse start temp was 148 deg, down to 138 on the kettle after 20-25 mins. Used 5.5 gallons of water for mash. Raised to 162 for alpha amalyse, approx 35 mins before sparging with 2.5 gallons of 180 deg water. pH at the end of the mash was 5.1. With regular czech saaz (3.5% AA) the additions were supposed to be 60, 30, 15, and 5 but moving them to 60, 10, 5, and 0 since this batch is with american saaz (6.8% AA). Approx. 91-92% efficiency is bananas.
