Title: Test Well Water
Post by: Will_D on July 25, 2015, 02:04:44 PM
Hi guys we need to get our (MRFC) well water tested for potability ( and also brewing  ;) )

Any one recommend a good lab in Dublin, idealy North side.

We expect to pay around the €100 mark for it.

I'd be very interested, any other members want to do a group buy here if we can get it for the right price?
I'll ping Murphys an email.

Just bear in mind that I started this thread for Well water and not brewing water!

A well test is more about things in the water that kill ( Coliform Bacteria and ent. Bacteria) or give you cancer (nitrites, PCBS etc)
