Hey guys,
I live in a semi-rural area, and my source of water is from a rainwater tank...
It is OK for brewing as it is perfectly fine for drinking, but even when drinking the water I notice a sweetness to it. A brew or two that I have done using this water seems to contain this similar sweet tinge from the water.
I am just looking for somne guidance for what I should do...
- I could drive to town and fill up my cube with town tap water (high chlorine level) and take it home,
- I could try distilling my own water and then add chemicals, but feel it would take forever to do enough for 23 litres,
- I could buy bottled water from Coles, which would drastrically increase my costs.
Any help is appreciated!
