Water filtration

[Deleted member 294929]

Have a look at your bottle of Evian. Nowhere on the bottle will it say "drinking water".
Bottled water is not covered by the drinking water regulations, it is covered by the food act.
Because it is food and not drinking water, it doesn't undergo as much testing as the water from your tap, which is classed as drinking water.

Are you saying Evian is actually good for us ? Or telling me I'm still a fool for eating the stuff?

A load of bowlogs, to assist in the extraction of bunce from a sap's pocket

Not a fool but certainly wasting money.

That d

That depends on what part of the country you live in. The makers of these machines say that to cover their arses.

Limescale can ruin coffee machines and Bod lives in a hard water region.

mind you both soft water and hard water can damage coffee machines

tap water is not the best for coffee machines in terms of flavour.

Filtered water unit under my sink takes out the rubbish . Unfortunately it also takes the goodness.

As you now have a new hobby……

Water Filter Units​

If you're serious about your coffee, and you understand the huge impact water has on flavour, then you'll want to choose a more permanent solution.

That means investing in a professional coffee filter which will simply feed off of the mains water tap in your house. That's the same one you use for your sink, washing machine and so forth.

There are many options available such as Brita, but we've favoured Everpure.

The rubbish is already out of it, that's what happens in the treatment works where the water filters are housed.
The thing under your sink won't remove anything that you don't get from your diet.
What exactly is under your sink?

All this bottled water / filtered water in the Uk is a load of cobblers imo

Now I've not read this but filtration takes out

Calcium​

This is essential for coffee extraction.

Magnesium​

This acts as a bind between flavour compounds and pulls out the juiciness from the coffee beans.

High magnesium levels increase the extraction of coffee into water and improves the taste.

Or am.i getting this wrong. Will have a better read tomorrow
