There was a thread on here a few weeks ago which someone posted a water report for the Dallas area, but I can't find it. Does anyone remember who that was?
Thanks for the link. I read through the reports and I'm still kind of in the dark on the whole issue. What did you end up doing? Do you use the tap and treat it somehow? Filter ? I know there is a ton of discussion on this, but still seems really vague! It would be nice to solve this issue for the north Texas brewers. Ten bucks a brew-day for spring water is a little much.
Deafsmith,
I have always used spring water on my brews, so I'm not sure if the tap water would produce a bad beer or not. I guess I have never tried to use it because it seems to have a bit of a chlorine taste. I set a glass of water out tonight to see if the chlorine taste would evaporate. What about you, have you tried to brew with straight tap? If so, what results did you have?
Anybody able to find a Burleson, TX water report? I keep looking online and cant find one. Any help would be appreciated!

If the city website doesn't provide the report it should at least say what water authority is the source of water. The authority's website should have the report. If all else fails, email the municipal water department and ask if they can email you the report.
