Tried to use the water profile tool to up the mineral content of my otherwise soft water. However, BS seems to not add up the mineral contributions from the different sources correctly. As you see from the attached screen dump e.g. for Ca the total should be 10,7+34,9+37,5+11,5=94,6 ppm, not 78,8 as calculated by BS. The same goes for all the other minerals as well. None really add up to the correct total.


 
Actually the numbers in BeerSmith are correct.  In your example screenshot you are diluting your Nedre Romerike water with 2 L of water with zero mineral content.  So, multiplying your number by 10/12 to account for the dilution yields the numbers shown by BeerSmith.
