That's highly subjective, I think, but I drink it off the top shelf of my fridge ...
top of the fridge is so bourgeois... im going to put it under my arm pit for a bit and get it up to cellar temps.
Installed a filter on the kitchen tap, ran the water for 10 mins to def clear the pipes, and took the sample right around the time of day I'm likely to brew going forward (night) ...
I'll be curious to see the water data, both for brewing and for drinking, and for the Aerogarden/EasyGreen/watering etc ...
I think if I'd brewed w/ my system already once, I could have squeezed in a batch this evening ...
As it is, though, I haven't yet, and I wasn't sure that it wouldn't screw me up on getting my work done - so I held off.
I only need to clamp all of the ends of all of the silicone tubes still, and then I need to run some cleaner/sanitizer through the plate chiller, and then figure out how to run the other (pond) pump for the immersion chiller (also, need an extension cord to bring power over, so I'll have to wait for that to come Friday) ...
I need to actually install the fermentation controllers between the freezers and the outlets, too.
The real key is doing a good job at work Thursday and Friday, so I can brew all the way up until Sunday evening ...
It's imminent.

SIP systems yo. Sanitize in place.

whats eol stand for?
The first wave was a trio of one gallon brews found elsewhere on the site ...
This newly created second wave will be the 2.5/3 gallon batches on the new system:
Last night I setup a charcoal filter for chlorine-filtration, and sent off a water sample to the lab to see what kind of water is coming this time of year ...
Tonight, a little while ago, I clamped down the silicone tubing to (hopefully) eliminate the leaking while running the pump.
Other than that ...
Grade B nitro infused cold brew whiskey barrel-aged coffee ftw! ...
Well, here we go =)
Ding, Ding ... Round Two!
CHEERS!

beer me
Yeah, I'm going to brew some beer today ...
Can't use the plate chiller, though - I had to order some 1/2" barb to garden-hose fittings, and then I'll have to pick up whatever adapter from Ace converts female garden hose to kitchen faucet too.
But it's not a blocker, I'll fetch a bag of ice and use the immersion chiller/pond pump for this weekend and it'll be fine enough
