How do you drink your water?

Question

Do you have a filter to filter your tap water? fill jugs at your local market? Or just buy them by the gallons? Or perhaps you just drink tap out the faucet without a filter like your water pipes haven't been curroding for possibly decades 😂

I predominantly drink mineral water (*). That said, I will drink normal tap water if, for instance, I am making a broth. (During cold weather, I often make a chicken broth using Better Than Boullion, tap water, and a cut-up green onion. Mix and put in the microwave for 3.5 minutes...)

(*) Perrier, Topo Chico, San Pellegrino, Gerolsteiner, etc...
I primarily drink Topo Chico, but usually save those for my wife. ALDI has a low-content mineral water from Italy (it's really La Galvanina) and I drink a lot of that because it is cheaper. However, when I can get it, Gerolsteiner; it's fantastic and a high mineral content mineral water. Mineral water is one of the best things you can drink. It can make you feel fantastic. But, it's not cheap because mineral water has to be "bottled at the source" which means it has to be shipped to stores. So, for instance, San Pellegrino genuinely comes from Italy; it is bottled there and transported to the US and everywhere else. Same with Perrier from France, La Galvanina from Italy, and Gerolsteiner from Germany, and Fiji water from Fiji, etc.

I drink tap water with no filter. I've only lived one place where you literally could not drink the water. That was ground water in a valley where all the minerals accumulated in the bowl. It was more salty than ocean water. Where I live now the tap water is pretty clean.

I use Britta filter to filter out tap water, mostly lime and iron. Espresso machine I use has inbuilt water filter. Tap water in my city has mineral water quality, it's from sources 300m+ deep and this water is 120 million years old, from Cretaceous time. This water is chemically clean but contains lot of lime compared to so called surface ground waters.
In summer I buy sometimes mineral water in glass bottles, It cost a little bit more and it's heavier than plastic, but it doesn't contain pastinators from PET plastic and it's has much more Carbon dioxide because glass is much more pressure resistant.

Used to drink from the tap which was city water. no need filter.
now we have well water, they use some kind of salt from Home Depot … so I stopped drinking it.

when the weather is nice, we fill our jugs from the mountain spring … about 20 minute drive. We go every 2 weeks. The water is fresh and crisp.
winter time, 2 months or so, we buy from the store.

At Home. At Work. At home I drink filtered water from my refrigerator & at work we have filtered water fountains.

DeeDeeDeVour · Answer

At home, a water filtration system provides the clean drinking water that also gets filtered through the refrigerators that also have their own filters.

At my various offices away from home, they're mostly filtered as well through the refs and the through smaller filters installed under each sink.

In public, especially when traveling, I usually ask for mineral water or whatever bottled drinking water is available.

DryGermanGuy · Answer

Carbonated mineral water (and yes, it's real, you can visit the well and fill bottles yourself) or sometimes tap water (it's of high quality). My former employer had a carbonation machine to provide carbonated tap water to everyone, that tasted really good.

I drink unfiltered water from my well out of the tap. I have two 1 liter bottles that I keep filled and drink from them throughout the day. One sits next to my chair in the living room, and one goes with me to my car. I drink at least one liter per day.
That, plus I add some powder called CardoMiracle to about 2/3 of a liter of water and drink that first thing in the morning. And I make 24 oz of coffee.

It's common practice and obviously safe to drink tap water here, country wide I'd say? So I'm curious about @alice55 opinion now lol, by gross you mean unhealthy?

It's so common for me that I can't instantly wrap my head around the concept of an unsafe tap water when I'm abroad, especially in western countries, it's so unexpected lol
