Water quality absolutely makes a difference as well. Where I live it's fairly hard and quite chlorinated, so I use a filter jug to take that away. Doesn't do much about the hardness, but at least I don't smell swimming pools whilst sipping

not to be chemist, but chlorine in water is volatile and goes away if you heat it.

I still seen to taste it. Could be that I only heat it to 84c?

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
