Ward Lab Water Analysis?

This is a place where people can ask questions about brewing. Hopefully, someone who is more knowledgable about brewing will respond.

Thank you for the data. When I put it in kaiser_water_calculator it seems tough to get that into the ideal estimated mash pH range. It looks like I need to add 3 grams of gypsum and 2 grams of magnesium chloride to the mash but I'm not sure how much lactic or phosphoric acid to add to reduce the estimated mash pH.
