So thats the other concept to be aware of when choosing a water source....consistency. That spring water may or may not be as consistently bland as the ro water, depending on water tables, rainfall, etc (im guessing).
Im in a suburb of phoenix and happen to have the most consistent water in the valley, as it comes from the same source year round and is all treated at the same plant...that being said, even my values can have a 10-30% range during the year. Steve's water is a good example...the hardness range is 870! With a range like that, water's like a box of chocolates... Using straight RO, all the time, brings consistency to your brews and an element of simplicity to your brewday, as you can always build from a single water profile. Short of testing ones water le motte style before each brew day, RO is (imo) the way to go!
