Hello All,
My first post and new to the forum, so forgive if I'm asking a common question. I have well water, and am slightly concerned about it's quality for brewing. It is good quality water from the sanitary side, but does have a lot of iron and some sulfurous smells to it. We have an iron curtain which removes most of the smell from the afore mentioned culprits, but could the residual give me brewing fits. I've been told that "if it smells good and tastes good, brew with it" Can you brew with softened water? Any thoughts ?
Thanks,
Bugboy
