Tap water for mixing sanitizer?

[1brewbeer2]

I have switched away from tap water and the gallon jugs of water and went to the 5 gal supermarket RO water jugs for everything (brewing and sanatizing) and mine went away. I have since switched to AG brewing with two stouts an amber lager and 3 IPA'S now without a hitch! Taste your brewing water and see if it's there from the beginning, might not be you at all!

Alright - good to know! Water tastes OK right from the tap, but what I'm reading is a lot of the brewing process itself brings out those chlorophenols - sounds like supermarket RO water is my next step!

Congrats on your success! I hope to be there soon as well

Cheers,

Check out the brewing water sticky in the science part of the forum for AG with RO or distilled water. Good luck and brew on!!
