Ever wondered if there's a better source of zero TDS water for diluting mineral concentrates and packets to make your brew water, than distilled or reverse osmosis water?
Allow me to introduce you to deionized water! Deionized water is more desirable than distilled water, since it maintains the natural levels of gases present in water. These gases are lost through distillation. Deionized water delivers improved mouthfeel, flavor delivery, and aftertaste compared to distilled water. It also features true zero TDS as opposed to reverse osmosis, which means it will honestly represent your target mineral profile.
Deionized water is the best kind of zero TDS water for diluting the empirical water concentrates. To get deionized water, you have two options.
Option 1
Step 1: Buy a Zero Water. Cheap and requires no installation.
Step 2: Run the lowest TDS water you have access to through the Zero Water. The lower the TDS of your starting water, the more deionized water the Zero Water will be able to produce before the filter needs replacing.
Option 2
Step 1: Buy an under-sink reverse osmosis system.
Step 2: Buy a deionization step and some extra deionization resin.
Step 3: Get this setup installed.
Voila! You now have access to a practically infinite supply of zero TDS water conveniently on tap at mere cents per liter.
