About a year ago I decided to start playing with my water chemistry. I bought an under sink RO system and started learning how to build a water profile from scratch, with a marked improvement in the quality of my brews. I am, however, a lazy man, and planning ahead to collect the water needed proved to be more trouble than it was worth (for me anyhow.) I also don't like the thought of roughly 50 gallons of drinkable h20 going down the drain to produce 10 gallons of beer so conservationist that I am, I simply went back to spigot water and campden tabs. I recently however had the idea to pick up an inline carbon filter (rv water filter from amazon) and wow! The difference is night and day. About 15 bucks for a 2 pack and my water tastes almost exactly like the RO water with zero waste. Now to convince SWMBO that we need a test kit for our tap water...
