When you make tea, do you prefer fresh tap water or freshly-filtered water?!
This has been nagging at me for a while!. The minerals in tap water change the taste of the water, that much is clear!. But I heard that filtering water may de-oxygenate it, and cause the tea to taste flat!. Does filtering water really de-oxygenate it, or is just that filtered water is often flat because it's been sitting in the jug too long after being filtered!?

my tea definitely tastes different with filtered water and I don't mean better tasting either!. Tap water always brings out the flavor better in my tea and I've never had a problem with the taste!.also I believe that filtered water always sits in the jug too long after the filtering process!.

me personally i like to have tap in mine because i think it gives the tea more flavor!. There are manydifferent combinations with different flavors and what kind of water and people think different cause of what they tasteWww@FoodAQ@Com
fresh tap water!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Freshly-filtered water!. The only thing is that if your jug sits at a place near lots of sunlight, move it!. No one likes warm water and if you boil warm water, the tea tastes weird!. The tea tastes fine with filtered water!. Hope this helps!. Oh and by the way, it doesn't deoxygenate it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I personally use tap for two reasons: ONE I don't have a filter, and TWO the boiling water kills the bad stuff in it!. The reason it may taste flat could be the minerals added to it!. Minerals are added after water is filtered in the jugs, so for the naturally filtered, un-mineralized water, I'd stick with boiling tap water!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
