I think I'm about right on the specific gravity and am thinking through the next few steps prior to bottling. I've read the guidance on this site about using boiled water in the siphon hose to start the siphon from the primary fermenter. Seems like that step adds a couple of hours by the time the water is cool enough to work with. Is there another source of siphon water...like maybe a jug of distilled water...or is that sterile?
