Does anybody brew in Minneapolis and use their tap water for their beer? Or better yet, does anybody have any advice on using the city of minneapolis tap water for brewing?
I'm just trying to come up with possible reasons why I just got an infected batch of beer and don't make the same mistake again (it smells like a nasty dog fart by the way). I've used the unsterilized tap water many times before and never had any issues that I know of. The only thing different about this batch was that a lot of krausen came through my airlock before I threw on a blow-off tube. But everything I've heard says that it isn't a big deal if that happens. Thanks
