Petrified forests are the result of trees being submerged for centuries in water. Flowing into the pores of the wood, water deposits minerals which, in time, solidify. Eventually the wood fiber disintegrates, leaving only a “tree of stone.” GOOD BREWING WATER IS RARE The ability of water to carry minerals is the reason why only a certain few watersare good for brewing.
