I use straight municipal water with confidence having tested twice at different times by Ward Labs. Chlorine is not obvious in my water, but we all know it is required to be in there.
If I add 1/3 of a campden tablet for a 7G batch, will this prevent my yeast from attenuating properly? Since I would add the campden earlier in the same day I'd pitch the yeast, is this a problem?
Or do I need to let the water with campden added "rest" a day ahead of brew day? OR.....since chlorine is not obvious, should I skip the campden totally and avoid unnecessary chemicals?
Thanks!
