Depending on the style of beer you make you may ave to add some minerals.
You can check in Promahs to see the water profile of citys that defined some
beer styles. In general water profile is far less important than the grains
and yeast that you use. If a water is good enough to drink it's good enough
to make beer but if you're at that stage when you taste one of your beers
and you feel that there is just a toutch missing to be in the style then you
can check you water profile.
