Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Hi Pippa †& #8220; I use a brita for my family too. I live in a small Town with good water, but I still filter for drinking. The Town and County still add to the water for our safety. (LOL) I†& #8482;m sure some is necessary for the bugs. I do only used distilled for my Scoby but that is a personal choice. p.s. Instead of grocery stores you can get distilled in massive bottles for those house dispensers for I think $5.00 direct from the Water Store. Than you just use a small hand pump. Very economical and lasts for ever if you brew for personal use. I get my Hubby to pick one up every 2 months or so. I prefer distilled to drink too, after a while bottled and tap tastes salty.

Quite frankly, all of your messages make me quite angry because they are so unrealistic, and I will thank you to refrain from addressing me personally or damning my comments so thoroughly on this list in the future. We can exist in parallel, but stop interacting with me from this point forward. Pippa From: Rezz Yisrael <mailto:zirlah%40yahoo.com> Subject: PIPPA'S COMMENT ON BRITA To: mailto:original_kombucha%40yahoogroups.com Date: Sunday, March 20, 2011, 4:36 PM greetings everyone, respectfully Pippa, using a Brita water filter is with the intention of humans drinking it direct from the filter and does not take into consideration it being given to microorganisms FIRST. this is a simple plea of thoughtfulness. if you are using any faucet municipal source water to go thru this Brita filter, then it merely defeats the initial purpose, no? i suggest filtering particles- out of the water you use, from whatever source you obtain it. think about the energetic qualities of the water you use. i would view the film Water: The Great Mystery if you have not seen already for a dove-tailing into your present awareness. Brita and any other form of commercial filters is essentially a gimmick to move a product as we check it closely. we are not this gullible for real any water that is pressurized and piped into a building is devitalized and will not nourish brews to their long term nutritional benefits. other scholars have looked into this already in details~ all pipes turn 90 degree angles while moving water through them and are devoid of direct sunlight which electrifies it as well. what filter can substitute for a living system of a forest, soil & rocks? nature is always free and the quality, so why pay for something that has a preset lifespan brew solidarity, ~Rezz ________________________________ From: Epiphany Pizor <mailto:altowolfkin%40yahoo.com> To: mailto:original_kombucha%40yahoogroups.com Sent: Sun, March 20, 2011 6:57:08 PM Subject: RE: Re: Experimenting Honestly, all I can afford is a Brita filter, which is what I've been using to brew for the several months that I've been brewing - and I get wonderfully tasty KT, it's never made me ill or anything (after an initial " healing crisis " ), I get thick and healthy scobies... It's REALLY not that complicated. Pippa ------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
