Target Water Profile
Light colored and hoppy
Ca+2 Mg+2 Na+ Cl- SO4-2 HCO3-
110 0 0 75 120 0
Gypsum (CaSO₄·2H₂O): ~5 grams → adds ~120 ppm sulfate, ~60 ppm calcium

Calcium Chloride (CaCl₂): ~2.5 grams → adds ~75 ppm chloride, ~50 ppm calcium (total 110 ppm)

Measure salts by weight (grams) on a small scale.

Add them to your mash water (before dough-in).

For consistency, add any remaining needed portion to your sparge water too (RO sparge water is basically “empty”).
