Chlorine Odor in tap water Featured

Mar 02, 2012 10 Replies

boy, what's with the LooooNG Subject titles? I don't like them, but I'm new here.



Do any of you do anything about the chlorine odor from tap water? Like, let the odor dissipate for a few minutes, before using?



I sometimes let the water stand for a while, but I add so many other flavors, etc, that I can't really tell the difference.

In context of coffee, chlorine fully disappears until water starts boiling.

don't understand what you said

What word I have used you do not understand ?

This group is about coffee.

But if your intention was to use cold tap water, few minutes is not enough.

On the other hand, addition of organic stuff like fruit juice is able to quickly react with chlorine. It disappears by chemical way and residues are beated by taste of major components.

sorry, I still don't understand what you are saying.

anyone?

thanks, marc

Interesting. Very most people do understand my written or spoken english.

nothing personal Poutnik

doesn't anyone else post here?

where are the coffee drinkers posting?

Just look at this group a few days ago. I have no idea about the original thread, but get a carbon filter. Anything we use with drinking water is carbon filtered and taste is great.

I agree such a filter is convenient and generally efficient way to improve taste of tap water ( unless filter is old and gets taste even worse ).

All I wanted to say, that in context of chlorine and coffee preparation it is not needed.

It can be useful for raw water usages.

I'm not concerned, I just wondered if others were.

I have water sitting out, and the chlorine odor dissipates, in xx minutes.

I filter most of my drinking water.

This newsgroup [I think it was this one] used to have many many regular posters. I just wonder where all the coffeeers went? Maybe to cooking, or something.

thanks marc

I would say it is general trand of abandoning usenet in favour of web forums and social networks
