I'm starting with Crystal Geyser water. Relatively soft (60 ppm in terms of alkalinity) no chlorine and small amount of calcium
Doing 8g of both gypsum and CaCl for 8 gallons of water. Will give a good match of sulfate and chlorine in the water as well as lowering the residual alkalinity in our mash for the lighter color.

Notes

Dry hop about 3 days into fermentation or when the krausen begins to fall.

Cold crash for 24hrs at end of fernentation then rack to a C02 purged keg. Oxygen is our enemy. You can dry hop in the keg as well to give a lasting aroma.
