The War On The Tiny And Innocent

[Raptured]

I recently bought a small water-still to make distilled water.  The city water where I live tastes okay but often has a strong chlorine odor which is understandable during the hot summer months.   Recently I tried to grow a sourdough starter and it just wouldn't take.   I read that chlorine will inhibit growth so I switched to distilled and voila!    I now distill an average of 2 gallons of water a day to drink, cook and make coffee with.   The amount of brown "goo" leftover in the boittom of the tank is pretty shocking and indicates a plethora of "stuff" in our water supply.

Don't get me started on Fluoride

@Budgie - I used to homebrew and would ONLY buy grains from Germany/Europe.  They prohibit the use of glyphophosphate which if you do some research on, is one of the worst things you could expose your body to but unfortunately in the US, it's everywhere.

I recommend a documentary called "What's With Wheat" for some great background
