Home depot sells a 5 gal bottle of water for $12, in a plastic bottle that appears to be similiar to a better bottle (the plastic is PETE, with #1 recycling code). I'm thinking of picking one up, using the water to brew and keeping the bottle as a secondary, or a primary for a smaller batch. Would there be any reason(s) not to do this?
