How to recreate Ogeu from RO or distilled water

Mineral salts to dissolve in reverse-osmosis or distilled water, calculated by the BrewWaterSolver solver with the most common homebrew salts.

Salt5 gal (18.9 L)20 L
Calcium chloride (CaCl₂)0.67 g0.71 g
Epsom salt (MgSO₄)1.95 g2.06 g
Chalk (CaCO₃)1.86 g1.96 g
Baking soda (NaHCO₃)0.93 g0.98 g

Closest match with these salts; it can't reach SO4 41 mg/L vs 35.5, HCO3 158.3 mg/L vs 180 exactly.

Chalk (CaCO₃) doesn't dissolve well directly in mash or sparge water without dissolved CO₂ - slurry it in carbonated water (e.g. sparkling water) before adding it, rather than mixing it into still water or sprinkling it in dry, or the calculated amount may not fully dissolve.
