odd question.
I found a place that filters water and can fill my 7 gal carboys.
what do I need to supplement with after RO filtering?
I know that the yeast need minerals to propogate.
thanks!

    Have you talked to the place that gives you the water to see what it filters out? I usually just use spring water that I buy, because our water is a little mineral tasting.

      this place filters everything possible.
      I ended up running the hose water through a carbon filter, hopefully cut downm on the chlorine and chloramines
