Re: St. John's Water Profile
That's very interesting. Do you modify it at all?

Re: St. John's Water Profile
Nope I believe, at this point, that the water profile adds to the uniqueness of the beer, making it your own.

Re: St. John's Water Profile
I use Mt. Pearl water 
which has a very close similarity to St. John's water.

Re: St. John's Water Profile
I'm not a true townie, but in the two years I've been here I've learned that Mt. Pearl is not St. John's haha

Re: St. John's Water Profile
Just found this link, huge help thank you!
I asked at the local brewery store if they knew what the water profile was and no one did.
Thanks again

Re: St. John's Water Profile
Interesting. The topsail road one is a lot closer I may check it out. I was pretty happy with brewery lane for my needs. I just boiled some tap water for 15 mins and I could still smell chlorine so I'm heading there now to get some Ro water. I miss having a unit in my house
