Tap water

It’s the water’s fault that the kettle needs descaling in the first place!

Do you have milk in your tea?

Doesn’t seem to effect the quality of my brews.

Aye. You’re completely right. Not really sure why I’ve come steamrolling into this, of all threads, on a moral high-horse. Soz everyone.

Not the point.

It’s your fault you smell but you don’t blame yourself, you blame other stuff.

(not sure this is really the right theory)

Descaled recently?

It’s definitely A Thing that people say you shouldn’t drink water from the bathroom tap but I’m not sure if it’s really A Thing that there’s really any difference. I do feel like it tastes a bit different but that I might be imagining it. I still drink it for convenience anyway like. If I’m sick or hungover I really don’t fancy going all the way downstairs do I.

I’ve got a glass kettle which makes it even more satisfying cause you can SEE IT.

Also don’t get a glass kettle they’re awful

If you’ve grown up on chalky hard water it’d be the greatest brew you’d ever had by a distance.

Fact.

Also if there is literal shit coming out of your bathroom taps then it’s quite weird that everyone’s still happy to brush their teeth with it.

Yeah - the one at work is glass/plastic. Horrible. I’m in charge of descaling it.

'Cos of the water!

Method used for descaling

  • Not applicable
  • Scale away (chemical option)
  • Natural (lemon, vinegar etc.)

S7 isn’t in the hard water bit there, sorry. Also thought the general rule was hard water tastes better, soft water is better for washing machines etc. Might be completely making that up though
