I'm not one to get too geeked up about water profiles for my brewing process but for those that are I got a question. 1st off, AG brewer here for those that don't know that. My whole house is on a water softener including outside hose lines. Currently I get the water from in the house via carbon filter in the kitchen sink and lug it outside to heat.
Anyways, I'm looking to buy a water filtering system for my 3-tier so I can attach a garden hose to the filter and get the water into the HLT. I went to Home D and Walfart to look for something but am not sure what would be best to buy:
Walmart one I saw was http://www.omnifilter.com/whole_house.htm#U25
Home D was I believe this one http://www.geappliances.com/smartwater/model_fs.htm?GXWH04F
I naturally want to get rid of the garden hose factor but not sure if these filters are the right kind to go for or if I got to spend more ka-ching on something else. Both go for around $30 but the Omni replacement cartridges are $5 ea and the GE's are $10 ea.
