Re: [JAB@thebarn.com message] [mba] Water

Here is a link to a test that was conducted by a water equipment retailer: http://www.premierwatermn.com/frederick-miller-spring-water-quality/ Greg Date: Sat, 6 Jul 2013 08:08:13 -0500 From: jtrane1(a)comcast.net To: JAB(a)thebarn.com Subject: Re: [JAB(a)thebarn.com message] [mba] Water I used this water when I first started brewing. It wasn't bad, but I wanted a source that was more reliable in it's content. You have to consider the quality of the spring water is greatly effected by the rainfalls and does happen to have a rather large landfill not too far uphill from where the tap is. Not to mention it sucks standing outside in -10 weather to fill 9 gallons.

I'd love to see the results if a test is ever performed on it... at least pH wise.. The people you meet down there is quite eclectic as well... ;) -Ben Sent from my electronic thingamajig.

I saw it on Kare11 last night. I am just wondering to know the quality of the water for brewing at home. My water at home is so hard, I always need to add distilled to soften it up Thanks Erik Nelson _______________________________________________ mba mailing list mba(a)thebarn.com http://www.thebarn.com/mailman/listinfo/mba _______________________________________________ mba mailing list mba(a)thebarn.com http://www.thebarn.com/mailman/listinfo/mba _______________________________________________ JAB mailing list JAB(a)mail.thebarn.com http://thebarn.com/mailman/listinfo/jab _______________________________________________ JAB mailing list JAB(a)mail.thebarn.com http://thebarn.com/mailman/listinfo/jab _______________________________________________ JAB mailing list JAB(a)mail.thebarn.com http://thebarn.com/mailman/listinfo/jab _______________________________________________ JAB mailing list JAB(a)mail.thebarn.com http://thebarn.com/mailman/listinfo/jab
