Ca+2 Mg+2 Na+ Cl- SO4-2 HCO3-

This is the water from the tap in our area. Not what were trying to target, just what came out of the tap.
Quick Water Requirements
Water Gallons  Quarts
Heat water added to kettle (equipment estimates 6.16 g | 24.6 qt) 3.34 13.3  
Mash volume with grains (equipment estimates 6.16 g | 24.6 qt) 3.42 13.7  
Grain absorption losses (steeping) -0.13 -0.5  
Volume increase from sugar/extract (early additions) 0.79 3.2  
Pre boil volume (equipment estimates 6.83 g | 27.3 qt) 4 16  
Boil off losses -1.5 -6  
Hops absorption losses (first wort, boil, aroma) -0.08 -0.3  
Post boil volume 5.25 21  
Going into fermentor 5.25 21  
WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.
