I'm just getting into the water aspect of brewing and am trying to understand the best approach. My water company's water report is lacking in some of the key data fields. I know I have the option of buying my own test kit, or sending it off, but that doesn't take into account seasonal variation.
Instead of spending the money on a test kit so I can do regular testing, does it make sense to just bite the bullet and RO my water so I can have a clean slate? Is there a need for a test kit after that?
I know a PH meter is in my future, but I'm talking about sodium, calcium, chloride, etc.
