More info from John Kimmich of the Alchemist:
" I believe that a good IPA has to have a certain level of mineral 'blockiness' to carry the hops and keep it from getting too tiresome on the palate. However, since the changes brought about by different water treatment are so subjective, I like to leave that up to the homebrewer to figure out. There are a lot of people out there who love the soft, chalky stuff that is all the rage now. They'll have to settle on that the same way I did--trial and error. The only really important part, in my opinion, is hitting proper mash pH of 5.2-5.3."
