Water is the most abundant ingredient in beer and a crucial element in developing the final flavor characteristics.<\/p>\n

Historically, brewers worldwide have used locally available water to make their beer, leading to the development of beer styles<\/a> associated with specific water profiles from particular regions.<\/p>\n

For example, water in Dortmund, Western Germany, is very hard and rich in calcium, sulfates, and chlorides. Meanwhile, the Czech city of Plzen<\/a> has very soft water, low in sulfates and bicarbonates.<\/p>\n

Over time, brewers learned that to reproduce these profiles consistently, they needed to treat their water’s quality and composition<\/a> as a fundamental starting point.<\/p>\n
