Leaving water out for 24 hours will get rid of chlorine, so will boiling. Did your process involve either of those?

Leaving it to stand works for chlorine, but not for chloramine, which a lot of tap water is treated with now instead. One would have to check with one's supplier.

I have been fermenting home made ginger beer either using filtered water, or water sat out for 24 hours. So probably not with chloramine in it.
