Hi all...
I just got a sweet stirplate score from work (pix later) and want to try my first stirplate starter.
That being said, can I use distilled water to make my starter? I am not looking for any minerals to help a mash and I want to make sure that the RA and pH in my water don't add any off flavors in the epic Oktoberfest i am planning (hope, hope, hope )
If you can give me the why's also, I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
