I have hard water and currently bypass my softner for brewing. I am going to change from a conventional salt bag water softener to a clearwave electric water softener, which apparently alters the charge and adhesive properties of the calcium and magnesium ions, softening the water without actually removing or adding anything to the water.
Has anyone tried this technology with their brew water? If the calcium and magnesium are changed, will they contribute to water characteristics differently? I wonder if I should plumb a bypass loop for brew day, or if I should use the new "softened" water.
Any help?
