Careful with water chemistry additions. It can get in depth and eventually you can start looking for problems to fit your solutions.
After going down the rabbit hole I crawled back out and decided to use a more simple (simpler?) approach. Just because you can add a salt doesn’t mean you should.
Don’t let someone else tell you you should add something because that’s the correct way to brew X beer. Of course, there are principles and guidelines to follow but this can get to the Nth degree and suck the fun right out of what’s supposed to be an enjoyable past time.
Let your taste determine for you. For example: Just because Burtonization is how it’s done doesn’t mean it tastes better to you. This is like seasoning a soup or stew. You might like more/less X spice in your chili than someone else.
Palmer has his method(s), Strong has his, Brungard, and on and on. All upstanding pillars of the community but they aren’t you and don’t have your taste buds.
