Thank you!

Got a general question here....I am upgrading to larger fermenter and don't want to make multiple trips to dispenser filling jugs. Is well water fine to use?

I'm looking for a simple recipe to follow. I have been search but have had no luck getting a clear one. Anyone out there have a good one?
