Carbon filter for brewing water?
-
I'm moved in to the new house and am in the process of setting up a brauhaus in the basement.
I will be piping cold water to where I will be brewing and was thinking of adding in an activated carbon filter to take care of chlorine and whatnot.
I figure I would add a poll to get opinions, please let me know what you think and explain your thoughts!

It's not bad drinking water, has the well water slight odor though, I can't taste or smell any chlorine.
The city hall is literally at the end of our street. I'm going to see if the city well water is chlorinated or they use chloramine. I'm hoping simple chlorine.

Taste some chiled boiled water. If that's good it doesn't rwaly mater what they put in it... Unless you have a really bad taste in water, but if that's true your taste in beer will match."I don't have TP, but I do have ammo."

I like swag. That's why I said add one. Complicated!
Also, run hot water too!!"On it. I hate software." ~Cpt Snarklepants -
a filter is never a bad choice, even if the water tastes pretty good.
as for hot water, it would make cleanup a lot easier.The only thing between me and a train wreck is blind luck..... - Kenny -

No laundry down in the basement so I'm going to have to pipe it in to the capped off stubs in the rafters.
