The place I live now is on a private well and the water is terrible. Its got a very high mineral content. Enough so that it stains surfaces red very quickly, and when I cleaned my 4 week old humidifier last night I found a large hand-full dime sized of brown metallic chips around the heating element. I'm also unsure if its full of life (I don't drink it).
Has anyone tried doing 5 gallon extract batches with bottled water and doing all their sanitation with bottled water as well? It seems like the combination of sanitizing bottles, carboys, and instruments would require too much water and be nearly impossible. Kegging might be doable but I don't have any of that setup and would rather bottle condition.
Any thoughts?
