I plan on using bottled spring water to brew beer. If I purchase bottled water in a glass carboy is it still necessary to sanitize the bottle before I add the boiled batch back to ferment?
Thanks

If I understand your question, yes you need to sanitise everything that comes in contact with the beer. Carboy, spoon, stirrer, funnel, hose,...etc. Everything. Except the water. I have never sterilised (or sanitized) the water I've added. But then I only ever use filtered tap water, which has been treated at the local water company.
