Bottled Water For Better Tasting Coffee

Yes, I think there's a difference sometimes. It just depends on how bad the faucet/tap water is. I don't use bottled water in either, just don't buy that much of it. I love tea! I drink it all the time. I worry about my teeth though since tea can stain them. I love to dunk oatmeal cookies in coffee, yummy stuff!

Huh, I haven't heard of this. I don't drink bottled water - we have filters at home and filters at work. I drink a lot of coffee though and the taste is good as it is. Maybe I will try this and let you know. Happy MyLotting!

I haven't used bottled water to make coffee or tea. It sounds very logical though since there is so much chlorine in our water. I'll have to try it. Thanks for the suggestion.

Water makes a big difference in taste. I remember when I moved to Florida, my coffee did not taste right. I tried different brands and still did not like it. It was not until my co-worker laughed and said it's not the coffee! it's the water. You need to make your coffee with bottled water for it to taste right. From then on - I kept a few gallons on hand at all times.

I hate bottled water, because they sometimes have a sort of weird taste which, for some reason, I associate with glue. (I've never tried to eat glue, but the taste of some bottled water just somehow strongly reminds me of glue.) Might just be difference between brands, but still. I wouldn't make coffee with bottled water. Do note though: The quality of tap and bottled water may be different in different regions or countries. So just because I think tap water is better here doesn't necessarily mean it'd be better elsewhere.

I am sure there is a difference. Some tap water really doesn't taste good. I did tried using a bottles water for my coffee but I cannot remember the difference already. I will try it again

i do not think i would be able to recognize any significant difference, i have been used to heating water that is sterilized, and we do not drink tap water anymore here in our place.

I'm not sure if I had coffee with the bottled water. At home, we always use tap water. But when I go to coffee shops, it hasn't crossed my mind if they're using bottled water or tap water. Probably I'll have to do a small experiment on this. What I can distinguish is the taste of different brands of bottled water. There are some which leaves sort of a coconut juice aftertaste. This brand I'll have to try first to see if it alters the taste of my coffee :)
