So in my new house my first batch didn't come out as expected and all signs point to the crappy city water, even when running through a carbon filter. So I'm going to use Poland Natural Spring Water for the first time on my Celebration Ale Clone this week.
I do a partial boil of 3.5 gallons and top off to 5 gallons. I usually boil the top off water before hand when it was out of the tap.
Is there a need to boil the top off water if its bottled water or is it good to go right from the bottle to the cooled wort?
