Water

[Guest guest]

Hi

I am new to this group and I am new to Kombucha (my first batch in progress

now).

I've been taking a look back through the past messages and there seems to be a

lot of debate about the best type of water to use: reverse osmosis, distilled,

tap water, boiled, spring water etc.

I'm using a Berkey Light water filter fitted with Black Berkey water

purification elements. These elements are not just 'filters'. Like the name says

they also purify the water but leave in the good minerals etc.

I have been using this to treat my tap water for several months now and the

water no longer tastes like it came out of a swimming pool. They claim that

these elements are so good that you can treat water from stagnant ponds etc and

make it safe to drink!! If you want you can also fit additonal filters (PF-2

elements) to remove fluoride and heavy metals too.

Just in case you were wondering, I don't work for them but I do use their

product and find that it produces great tasting safe water cheaply. They sell

via ebay too.

You can get the full specs here:

The Berkey site is here:

The Black Berkey elements fit various models so you can purchase the one that

suits you best.

Ps. My cultures seem to be coming along nicely in the purified water!
