Not sure if this the right forum for this question but here it is. I just moved to a different town and got my brewing all set up. I went to boil about two quarts of water in a pan for ten minutes to sterilize it for adding to a yeast wash. As I was boiling this water it turned a milky white (Bad). I canned up a pint of the water and when it cooled it had what looked like a white slurry type substance on the bottom of the pint that separated out of the water (Approx 1/2 Tsp). Is this lime or something else. Very confusing since I never had this happen before. I cleaned everything up and tried it again and same thing happened. How do I compensate for this when making my brew. I do have a carbon filter on my water line and still get this. Any suggestions?
