Hi, I'm a guy from Europe and am developing plans to start a craft whiskey distillery here. There are only two in my country and none in the immediate region so that helps. There isn't much of a whiskey tradition here and demand is growing. Lots of things to do and lots to learn so that's why I went looking in a place where people have made their mistakes and achieved success to learn as much as possible.
Is my water ok?
in Beginners

One of the things I really struggle to understand is to understand how the quality of my water supply affects my fermentation. I know iron content is especially important and at maximum it is 0.038 mg/l and on average it is half that. Is that amount of iron a potential problem?
pH is 7.72
calcium is at least 48mg/L
I know these things are important but have a hard time understanding whether my water is good or not. Here's an overview of my water quality from the water company (it's not in English but easy enough to understand I think...)
