Water isn’t just water—it’s a cocktail of minerals, chemicals, and sometimes even funny tastes. Think of tap water like a neighborhood potluck: everyone shows up—calcium, chlorine, maybe a little lead if the pipes are old. Distilled and reverse osmosis are just two different ways to kick the uninvited guests out of the party.
But why should you care? Because the water you drink touches your coffee, your pasta, your ice cubes, and even your humidifier. Picking the wrong type can ruin a perfect brew—or worse, leave a chalky film on your kettle.
