I am switching to RO water because I have a chloramine problem I can't squash. My question is this, is still safe to sanitize and clean my equipment with tap water? Any issues with residual water getting into my brew and creating a phenol party like I have when I use tap water?
For example:
I got three 5 gallon pails I want to go pick up some RO water in, I clean them but they are not dry and I am wondering if enough chloramine is in a wet pail to ruin the RO water? If it is dry is there and residual chloramine hanging around?
On brew can I still uses 5 gallons of tap water for my sanitizing bucket?
I have used charcoal filter and campden with not much success.
