I've only used phosphoric once, and it made my water murky - I went ahead anyway and used it. Only added 2ml to 15 litres of water, lowering pH to 6.1
2016: 330L brewed (72 gallons, over 8 firkins)
2017: 105L brewed (need to update this figure)
Drinking: Landlord clone
Conditioning: ciders from 2016, hedgerow barrolo, 1914 Courage RIS (10%).

Blimey.
I take the water from the tap, heat it up, add to the malt, mash, boil, cool, pitch, ferment - job done!
Helps that I live in an area with decent water (Scotland) - and I don't mean to disparage anyone who has to use a water supply that does need treated, but I look at all the fine details and arguments about water treatment, and just really, really glad I don't have to worry about all that!
