Hey guys,
well i just installed my water filter. its pretty much takes out all ions. so imleft with almost distilled water. its not an ro unit. its by a company called BWT.
the water tastes fine when i got it out of the filter. But when i added the minerals to it and tried a sip, it tasted AWFUL!!!
i used a base water profile of close to 0 all around. and added gypsum, epsomsalt, and calciumcloride, to get a water profile of 55 calcium , 75 sulfate, 60 chloride, 5 magnesium and 0 bicarbonate.
i mixed in the salts to my water and it tasted undrinkable. is this NORMAL>>>
i always hear people say if it tastes good you can brew with it......but its the opposite affect here.
I did test for calcium and its spot on, so im assuming my other aditions were right as well. (i cant test for those)....
any input.much appreciated.
