I'm getting ready to brew a pale ale with my well water.I know it's easy to screw up and my recipe calls for R.O. water treated w/ 1tsp. calcium chloride.I also know that my well water has iron in it.All my brewing water goes thru a PUR carbon filter and the PH is about 6.2.I also use 5.2 stabilizer in my mash water.My question is, can I boil my water and let it sit overnight and rack off the settled matter and have the same results as R.O. water or do I need to buy distilled water? And also should I use the 5.2 along with the calcium chloride?Thanks in advance.
