Re: Water Water Everywhere... What’s Your Water?

Would love one day to have a tasting with you comparing the different waters you are making with tea. Aside from TDS what other factors (pH, alkalinity, hardness, minerals) do you consider the most important to track and reduce or increase? Great question! With pH, a lot is dependent on the amount ...

Re: Water Water Everywhere... What’s Your Water?

Sorry to double post, but I made that toronto water recipe again, and had a great session with 2004 Biyun Hao Manzhuan. Thought it would be interesting to record some tasting notes, half about the tea, and half about the water! https://teasecrets.home.blog/2020/12/12/2004-biyun-hao-manzhuan-with-fak...

Re: Water Water Everywhere... What’s Your Water?

Wrote a post about an experiment I did where I replicated mgualt's toronto tap water. Hopefully it's interesting! https://teasecrets.home.blog/2020/12/06 ... tap-water/

It really was quite difficult but the result was pretty surprising, and much better than I expected.

Re: Best water for brewing tea is Natural Spring Water and it's free

Awesome! Too bad my closest one is almost an hour away from me. What size/brand jugs do you use? And how do you know it's safe?

Re: Water Water Everywhere... What’s Your Water?

Wrote a post on the challenges of water. https://teasecrets.home.blog/2020/04/03/water-a-wicked-problem/ This is basically less of a report on any findings and more a report on the roadblocks and difficulties I've had understanding how water works. I've made almost 50 water recipes in the past year,...

Re: Water Water Everywhere... What’s Your Water?

Glad this water thread is still active! I'm working on home water purification right now to get the purest-tasting water before minerals are added. Once I can replicate a spring water so it's indistinguishable in a side-by-side comparison, that will be a major milestone. Also up next for me is compa...
