Low pH a problem?
Good news. A GH and KH in the 50-70 range is a reasonably good place to be, and if you are measuring a TDS on that water down in the 50 ppm range you have a pretty good indication that your chloride is not high. Be sure to have the water at around 25C (77F) when you measure

SSP 98mm Lab Sweet User Experience
Short question concerning ordering the newest LS 98mm. Are they named EK43 LS on espressotool.com? Currently grinding with the 98 HU, but I'm missing some body and sweetness in my cups.

Australian Distilled/De-ionized water
In some parts of Australia I think ZeroWater filtration would be a good option. Not just cost wise but also to reduce the container waste. Maybe not for Perth though where the TDS of the tapwater can easily be up in the 300-600 range. ZeroWater filters are more quickly exhausted if you have high TDS -
