A friend pointed me to ezwatercalculator.com and their sheet. It's based on Palmers but prettier.
It also has a calculation for adding minerals to the boil, above and beyond what you add to the mash.
Palmer focuses on the mash minerals, but it makes sense that some minerals would get stuck in the grain bed during lautering. I tried it Saturday and the fermentation is largely done already. Just wondering if the additional calcium and Mg helped the ferm that much.
